TI  - Abū Ḥanīfa’s contribution to the methodology of Qur’anic Exegecis
AB  - Abū Ḥanīfa, the 8th-century Sunni Muslim jurist, was closely interested in scientific problems in his time. In this context, he expressed some of the problems of the Tafsīr Methodology in the creed treatises attributed to him. In this article, we will try to discuss how he evaluated these problems within the framework of these treatises. Abū Ḥanīfa, considered to be one of the most important scholars of his period, is also the founding imam of the Hanafi school of thought. Therefore, although he was interested in all kinds of scientific problems of the period he lived, he was known as a jurist because he was more interested in legal issues. However, he dealt mostly some creed issues in five aqāīd booklets attributed to him, namely al-Ālim wa’l-Mutaʿallim, al-Fiqh al-akbar, al-Fiqh al-absat, Risālātu Abī Ḥanīfa ilā Qādī al-Basra Uthmān al-Battī and al-Wasiyya. While examining these treatises, we have noticed that many topics related to Qur’an and tafsīr methodology not only in a number of classical works but also discussed today. Those are khalq al-Qurʾān, superiority between verses and suras, mutashābihāt, naskh, tafsīr, ta’wı̇̄l, tanzı̇̄l, and Qurʾan’s being a criterion in evaluation of hadith. Abū Ḥanīfa's views on the problems of the Tafsīr Method were adopted, developed and systemized by many Islamic scholars after him. The initiatives brought by Abū Ḥanīfa, who has influenced many scholars since his time and is still accepted as an authority in science, are in the nature of shedding light on the solution of the problems of today's Tafsīr Method, which is still up-to-date and discussed.
