Pearls of the tidy necklace

Explanation of Tanqih Fath al-Karim

Author's name: Hassan bin Mustafa bin Ahmed Al-Warraki Al-Masry

For the sake of Allah, explain to me the meaning of the Quran and open the way for the great Quran.
How do you read the ten major readings as the easiest narration for you?
Praise be to God alone, and prayers and peace be upon the one after whom there is no prophet. Now then:
Based on the importance of the aspect of #knowledge for students of the science of readings, especially in this era in which ambitions have weakened greatly and determination has been paralyzed in the aspect of knowledge!!
This is unacceptable and justifies the loss of the narration, as preserving the narrations of the Noble Qur’an has two essential wings: the authenticity of the narration and the establishment of knowledge, which is the basis for understanding this explicit text, through knowledge of the rules upon which it was founded and the principles to which it is referred for foundation, codification and analogy in the event of disagreement over it. For the knowledge of knowledge corrects errors and clarifies the arguments for the preferred opinion, especially in matters over which later scholars have disputed.
That is why our explanation of #Tahrir_Tayyiba_Al-Nashr is to make the #student understand, facilitate the #reader’s comprehension, and provide a reference for the #reciter to rely on in controlling many of the disputed scholarly issues, with regard to the Tahrir of the Ten Great Readings. In taking the text that the imams conveyed to us, and what the conscious ones who are at the top of the Muslim scholars knew, and what they preserved for us in their works - is protection from error, correction of mistakes, and steadfastness on the straight path, and we have no power or strength except with God, the Most High, the Almighty.
The author of Al-Rawd said: “Therefore, if the student memorized the entirety of Al-Tayyiba by heart, he would not be able to read the readings in their entirety, due to the complexity of the paths. There is no way, then, to read in its entirety except by freeing the different readings from their composition, and that is by attributing the paths to their owners, which is what is called the Tahrir (editing). By knowing them, the reader is saved from the confusion and fabrication that are impossible in narration, as will become clear later when discussing the Tahrir (editing).”

Therefore, I have sought God’s help in creating a comprehensive work that can be relied upon to strengthen the editorial aspect and that the student can use to gain understanding and knowledge, and its value is only known to those who have a high standing in this field. It is the explanation of the system of #Tanqih_Fath_Al-Karim by the scholar Ahmad Abd Al-Aziz Al-Zayat (d. 1424 AH), which is an abbreviation of #Fath_Al-Karim by the scholar of his time Muhammad ibn Ahmad, known as Al-Mutawali (d. 1313 AH). It is the most accurate, precise, and powerful of the edits, as the scholar Al-Zayat mentioned (his editing has increased in research and precision over every editing of Tayyiba, which is evident), and I named it (#La’ali’ Al-‘Iqd Al-Nazim, an explanation of Tanqih Fath Al-Karim in editing the aspects of the Noble Qur’an).

#Chapter_One: In it, I explained several important issues that the student must understand, namely:

1- An important introduction to the science of #editing.
2- Important rules for controlling the understanding of #editing_rules among scholars.
3- Explaining the #eighty_paths mentioned by the ten reciters of the Qur’an and their sources, through the system: (#the_eighty_paths) by the scholar #Amer_Othman (d. 1408 AH).
4- Show the #editing_sections to the readers.
5- Explain the methods of editing according to investigators.
6- I explained the general edits that readers participated in, for the sake of brevity, so that they are not repeated with every reader.

- #Chapter_Two: In it I explained the system of (#Tanqih_Fath_Al-Karim) by Al-Allama Al-Zayyat, and I divided the corrections of each #narration separately; to make it easy for the student to grasp the corrections of each specific reader with training and scheduling each correction.

- #Chapter_Three: I have edited the text of (#Al-Tanqih) based on what I learned from my sheikhs, with commentary on it in the footnote, to make it easy for the student to memorize and understand it in a simplified manner.

Then know, my dear student brother, that the system of Tanqih Fath al-Karim is divided into chapters of the Qur’an. The number of verses in the system is 462 verses, which al-Zayyat abridged from Fath al-Karim by the scholar al-Mutawali. He changed some of its wording for the sake of brevity, and added and deleted things based on what Imam al-Mutawali said about al-Rawd al-Nadir, saying: “And from His meadow, I have added benefits to it.” So, O Lord, make its benefit general and accept it.
The conquest reached 797 verses, and the reason for the difference between the revision and its origin is several matters that I explained in the book.

As for my approach in the book, I have clarified the subject of the poem and the approach of its author, and I have explained it in a comprehensive, tabular manner, in which I have focused on what will benefit its reader. This is evident from several matters, which are:

1- I gave a title to each edit before starting to explain it.
2- I divided the poem according to the editing and clarification of the strange words, and I explained it in points so that the meaning would be clear and the expression easy.
3- I sought to clarify the explanation by mentioning one or more exercises, so this explanation was #tabled to distinguish it from others, and to be within the student’s reach and easy for him to understand.
4- I brought the witness of the opening in the corrections of #takbir related to each correction.
5- I distributed the disagreement between the methods of narration, citing the words of Ibn al-Jazari a lot, and I added many benefits to it.
6- I mentioned the attribution of many of the aspects attributed to the publication or the system of attribution of the paths to the scholar Al-Mutawali in the footnotes; to help the student understand it.
7- I often clarify the controversial words if they are confined to a few places for the benefit.
8- Training and scheduling each edit to facilitate the student’s understanding of the edit.

With all of the above, it has been distinguished, and this is due to our keenness to benefit the student of this knowledge as much as possible, and God is sufficient for me, and He is the best Disposer of affairs.

It has 791 colored pages.

As for the difference between this explanation and the explanation of our great Sheikh Al-Zayyat:

By the grace and favor of God, I have been careful to ensure that this work is not a duplicate of what has been written before, and that it contains within its folds important benefits that the student needs and that facilitate his understanding and mastery. I have worked on explaining the text, adding to it what is not in it elsewhere and attaching to it other sections, and its explanation is as follows:

1- Providing titles for all the amendments included in the regulations, to clarify the subject of each issue before explaining it, making it easier to control.
2- I frequently cite Fath Al-Karim in parallel with the poem, and I added what the poet neglected, and I clarified its evidence.
3- Explaining the author’s disagreement with Al-Fath, with an explanation of the preference between the two.
4- Mentioning the rules of general and specific takbir related to the takbirs among the reciters.
5- Detailing the methods and citing the words of Al-Nashr in that regard.
6- Attaching the explanation with some clear clarifications from the words of Ibn al-Jazari.
7- A complete summary of the edits of each narration for the entire Qur’an, so that those who study the major narration can benefit from it, and a complete list for those who collect it, as it is a complete list of the edits of each narration.
8- Attributing many faces to their origins, as in Al-Nashr.
9- Scheduling all the edits included in the regulations, so that it is clear and obvious to the explainer and the student.
10- Explaining the two rules: (probability and specificity) before starting the explanation, so that the student can understand the explanations correctly.

These are ten perfect deeds. I ask God to grant us sincerity, not to deprive us of the reward, and to grant this work victory and acceptance.
