میجر محمد یسیٰن خاں صاحب مرحوم ندوۃ المصنفین کے قدیم ترین معاون تو تھے ہی ادارے کی خدمات کوبھی نہایت قدرومنزلت کی نظر سے دیکھتے تھے۔ ادارے سے مرحوم کی وابستگی ندوۃ المصنفین کے مخلص ترین محسن مرتضیٰ صاحب مرحوم کے واسطے سے ہوئی تھی دونوں میں قابل رشک مخلصانہ تعلقات تھے، سید صاحب ہی کے ذریعہ مرحوم کے کارکنان ادارہ سے روابط بڑھے اور پھر یہ روابط بڑھتے ہی چلے گئے، تھوڑی دیر کے لیے بھی دہلی تشریف لاتے تو ندوۃ المصنفین کے دفتر میں ضرورآتے۔ ممبری کی فیس اداکرنے میں بھی بے مثال تھے۔ ان کاشمار ادارے کے اُن چند گنے چنے معاونوں میں ہوتاتھا جووقت سے پہلے کسی یاددہانی کے بغیر شوق وذوق سے سالانہ فیس دیتے ہیں۔ ایک پوتے کی المناک شہادت کی خبر تواس مضمون میں ہے، کم وبیش دو سال قبل ان کا دوسرا جوان پوتا دنیا سے رخصت ہواتوبڑاہی دردناک خط آیا تھا، میں نے تعزیت نامے میں اپنے عزیز ترین ہونہار پوتے کی حسرت ناک وفات کاذکر کیا توان کو بڑی تسلی ہوئی تھی اور اُس تاثر کااظہار انھوں نے ایک طویل مکتوب میں کیا تھا۔ پچھلے دنوں حباب آفرید صاحب کامکتوب آیاجس میں زیر نظرمضمون کاتذکرہ کیاتھا، یہ میجر صاحب مرحوم کوندوۃ المصنفین اورہم لوگوں سے جوغیر معمولی تعلق تھااس کے پیش نظر میں نے حباب صاحب کومضمون بھیجنے کے لیے لکھ دیا، مضمون ہراعتبار سے سبق آموز ہے اور اسی لیے برہان میں شریک اشاعت کیا جا رہا ہے۔ (ع)
جئیے پہاڑی سے یوسف بھائی کے الم نامہ نے غمزدہ دل کوہمیشہ کے لیے سوگوار کردیا کہ’’آپ کویہ دردناک خبر پڑھ کربے حد افسوس ورنج ہوگا کہ والد بزرگوار میجر محمد یسیٰن خاں کچھ دنوں کی علالت کے بعد اس عالم فانی سے مورخہ ۱۴/ اگست ۱۹۷۸ء/۹رمضان بروز پیر...
The main objective of human life is to get closeness to Allah Almighty and to worship Him. For this purpose thousands of prophets were sent to guide the people on the right path. Other prophets were sent for a specific nation, limited time and area. At the end prophet Muhammad (SAW) was sent by Allah as the last and universal prophet. On the other hand it is also a bitter fact that in all the times and area there are some people who do not follow, become hurdles and even misguide the others (for their cheap worldly benefits). ╓ussain Alī Mazandrānī is one of those false and fake people. He wrote a book, namely, Kitāb-e-Aqdas and claims it to be the word of Allah, revealed on him, while the fact is that Qur’ānic commands (orders) have been presented in his book according to the will and convenience of people. In some places the very text of the Holy Qur’ān has been copied. The given article discovers this plagiarism and critically analysis the commands written in Kitāb-e-Aqdas in the light of the Holy Qur’ān. And this has been proved with arguments that the Holy Qur’ān is the word of Allah, which is completely safe, while Kitāb-e-Aqdas is the outcome of human efforts written by ╓ussain Alī. Hence it is unsafe and not free from mistakes.
According to terminology of the Quranic studies, Tarjīh (plural: Tarjīhāt) means preference of a later exegete to one of the many exegetical opinions about a particular verse or set of verses expressed by the previous generations of exegetes.Such preferences of the exegetical opinions give important clues to methodology and the intellectual outlook of a given commentary on the Holy Quran. This research aims at collection and evaluation of the exegetical preferences of Shaykh Nawwāb Siddīq Hasan Khān in his commentary on the Holy Quran titled Fath al-Bayān Fī Maqāsid al-Qur''ān. His exegetical preferences encompass both Tafsīr bi al-Ma’athūr and Tafsīr bi al-Ra’iy and deal with juridical, linguistic, grammatical, theological, and doctrinal issues. He compares different exegetical opinions and expounds their strength and weaknesses in the light of relevant methodological principles and gives his own judgment at the end. In the present study, such methods and principles would be examined and discussed. It would be investigated what are the bases of his exegetical preferences and to what extent these preferences are plausible according to the methods and principles established in the science of Tafsīr. Thus, the study is envisaged to elaborate characteristics and significance of the selected commentary on the Holy Quran.It may be noted that Fath al-Bayān Fī Maqāsid al-Qur''ān is a well-known commentary on the Quran across the Muslim world. Numerous studies have been carried out on Shaykh Nawwāb Siddīq Hasan Khān’s commentary on the Holy Quran titled Fath al-Bayān Fī Maqāsid al-Qur''ān. However, hardly any study focuses on his exegetical preferences which the present study is particularly focusing on. Some of the specific questions that this study seeks to answer are as follows: 1. What are the methodological foundations of the exegetical preferences of Nawwāb Siddīq Hasan Khān in his commentary on the Holy Quran there are preferences in the rulings of S? 2. heikh Al Qannoji? And on what basis he preferred the opinions? And what terminology has been used when giving his favored opinion? And what is the impact of it in general?3. Whether Nawwāb Siddīq Hasan Khān comes up with some novel interpretations o in his commentary on the Quran and simply confines himself to preference ofone or the other previously stated opinions? The research methodology will include collection, study, and assessment of the exegetical preferences given in Fath al-Bayān Fī Maqāsid al-Qur''ān. These preferences would be compared with the opinions on the same verses or issues expressed by other famous scholars of the field like al-Tabarī, al-Rāzī, Ibn al-Arabī, al-Qurtubī, Ibn ‘Atiyyah, al-Zamkhsharī, al-Baydāwī, Abī Hayyān, Ibn Kathīr, alSayūtī, Abū Sa‘ūd, al-Shawqānī, al-Alūsī, al-Qāsimī, Ibn ‘Ashūr, and so on. Then, these opinions would be analyzed and evaluated in the light of established principles of Tafsīr. At the end, either preferences of Nawwāb Siddīq Hasan Khān will be endorsed or their weakness would be pointed out. In short, this research would be inductive, comparative, and analytical in nature.
