Madarik al-Tanzil

Madārik al-Tanzīl wa Ḥaqāʾiq al-Taʾwīl (Arabic: مدارك التنزيل وحقائق التأويل, lit. 'Gaining Revelation and Insight into Truth of Interpretations') is a classical Qurʾānic commentary by the Hanafi-Maturidi scholar Abū al-Barakāt ʿAbd Allāh ibn Aḥmad al-Nasafī (d. 710 AH / 1310 CE). It is concise yet comprehensive, synthesizing linguistic, theological, and juristic insights while maintaining clarity and moderation. Drawing upon earlier authorities such as al-Bayḍāwī and al-Zamakhsharī, al-Nasafī refines their approaches with precision. The tafsīr has been widely referenced in Hanafi scholarly circles and remains influential in the study of Sunni exegesis.
