Abstract

This research paper presents a comparative analysis of Imam Al-Bukhari's commentary, "Kitab al-Tafsir," found in his seminal work, Sahih al-Bukhari, with a particular emphasis on the integration of linguistic notes from Abu Ubaida Ma'mar ibn al-Muthanna's "Majaz al-Qur'an." The study aims to elucidate the methodological approaches employed by Imam Al-Bukhari in his exegesis, specifically how he incorporates linguistic insights to enhance the understanding of Quranic verses. By examining selected commentaries within "Kitab al-Tafsir," this paper highlights the extent to which Al-Bukhari's interpretations align with or diverge from the linguistic perspectives provided by Abu Ubaida. Furthermore, the research investigates the influence of Abu Ubaida's philological contributions on the exegetical tradition and their significance in the broader context of Quranic studies. Through meticulous textual analysis, the paper seeks to contribute to the existing scholarship on Quranic exegesis and linguistic studies, offering a nuanced perspective on the interplay between linguistic precision and theological interpretation in classical Islamic scholarship. The findings underscore the critical role of linguistic analysis in Quranic exegesis and its implications for contemporary interpretative methodologies.
