title: THE METHODOLOGY OF AL-MA TURI DI’SQUR’ANIC EXEGESIS: Study of   Ta’wilat Ahl al-Sunnah

description: According to Islamic theology, al-Maturidi is one of  the three prominent  Muslim theologians of  Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama‘ah who are called aqtab  madhhab Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jama‘ah (the leaders of  Sunnite school  of  thought). In addition to his reputation as a theologian, al-Maturidi actually  was competent in various Islamic sciences. In Qura’nic exegesis, he has Ta’wilat  Ahl al-Sunnah or Ta’wilat al-Qur’an. Unfortunately, this fact isn’t known  well by Islamic researchers. This article is going to elucidate the features of  his  work that encompass at least seven characteristics. Al-Ma>turidi prefers to  combine the naqli  (traditional) and ‘aqli>  (rational) sources. Consequently, it  can be identified as tafsi>r bi’l-izdiwa>j or the exegesis that amalgamates  tafsi> r bi’l-ma’thu>r (traditional exegesis) with tafsi> r bi’l-ra’y (rational  exegesis). He is not an interpreter who uses excessive grammatical analysis to  interpret the Qura’nic verses.  He sometimes presents many styles of  qira>’ah  (recitation of  the Qur’an) without thorough explanation. He almost never  uses Isra’iliyya>t (the Judeo-Christian traditions and tales) to interpret the  Qura’nic verses. He favors tawassut\ (nonaligned and independent standpoint)  when he deals with different viewpoints among theologians. He tends to follow  the H{anafite school of  thought in discussing the jurisprudential Qura’nic  verses. He applies asba>b al-nuzu>l (the causes of  revelation) loosely.
