Authors

Abstract

"Quran by Quran interpretation" is one of the valid and effective methods in the field of Quran interpretation. However it is vulnerable to bias of interpreter, insofar as even some of famous interpreters could not avoid it. This study is an attempt to show how theological biases of Qurtobi affected his "Quran by Quran interpretation" in "al Jamea le Ahkame el Quran". The research indicates that Qurtobi had ignored some of the important interpretation principles to prove his theological views or engaged "the Quran by Quran interpretation method" in inappropriate ways.
