The Questioning of Innovation in the Search for Methodology in Contemporary Tafsir: The Equipment Considered Necessary for Exegetes

Summary/Abstract: In this article, it is aimed to show whether contemporary works that seek a methodology in tafsīr bring a novelty to the relevant sections of classical works in terms of the sections on the mufassir’s equipment. When we look at the literature, we realize that although there are some studies on the equipment of the mufassir, they do not center on the problem of change and innovation between the contemporary and classical period, which is the center of this research. In this article, “the phenomenon of innovation and change” is analyzed with the comparative content analysis technique by using the phenomenological design. The scope of the research is limited to the chapters dealing only with the equipment of the mufassir in classical and contemporary works in search of usul. The study focuses on the question of “how and in what ways the relevant sections of the works of the two periods differ”, and a detailed analysis of the reasons for the differences goes beyond the limitations of the study. As a result, in the contemporary period, the textual integrity and the emphasis on the history of the period of the nuzul period and the period of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) are to some extent different. In addition, although the addition of a few sciences such as sociology, psychology and anthropology by the authors of the relevant period seems to be a unique issue, the lack of emphasis on how to use these sciences in interpreting the Qur’an has led to the articulation of these sciences, which are popular in the age, to the science of tafsir and the failure to create an organic structure. Looking at the rules, in the contemporary period, there are some concrete and specific steps in the rules specific to maānī, and in the rules related to the lexicon, a structure that considers the Qur’ān as a linguistic authority apart from Arabic, and that is based on the meaning rather than linguistic rules, shows itself. In the hierarchies of evidence, although there are emphases that emphasize the relationship and the narrations of the Prophet, it is noticed that similar ones were also present in the classical period. In the final analysis, it is noteworthy that the titles and content included in the classical period in the context of the subject are largely preserved in contemporary works, but there are some innovations and emphases in the content.
