Abstract

In Tafsir Tarjuman al-Mustafid, Al-Fansuri incorporates data on the sabab nuzul (context of revelation) in his interpretation of Quranic verses. This study aims to explore and analyze the sabab nuzul referenced in the Tafsir Tarjuman al-Mustafid, focusing specifically on the 4th juz of the Quran as an initial step towards refining the content of this significant work of Quranic exegesis. Future studies will expand the scope to include other ajza’ of the Quran. The findings of this study reveal the presence of 11 sabab nuzul within the 4th juz in Tafsir Tarjuman al-Mustafid.
