Aplikasi Qirāāt Sebagai Petunjuk Dalam Tafsir Imam Al-Ṭabari: Kajian Surah Al-Baqarah

The difference of qirāāt in the recitation of the Qur'an is a semantic and guide to the mufassirin in the process of interpreting the Qur'an. The process of tafsir al-Quran that has been done by the mufassirin certainly cannot be separated from the discussion about the difference of qirāāt, because its contained in the recitation of al-Quran itself. This paper discusses the role of qirāāt on the side of Imam al-Ṭabari in his tafsir Jāmi ’al Bayān’ An Ta’wīl Āyi al-Quran. This research was conducted  through  the text of the book based on surah al-Baqarah. The selection of this surah is significant because usually mufassirin  make surah al-Baqarah as catalyst and stand in their book, based on the fact that it is the longest surah in the Quran and it is at the beginning after surah al-Fātiḥah. The type of research in this study is a library study and a book text study that has been conducted on tafsir Jāmi ’al-Bayān. The results of the analysis found that Imam al-Ṭabari presented qirāāt as a guide and semantic to the tafsir of the Qur’an. His methodology is based on the criteria of his choices in qiraat used between mutawātirah and syadhdhah, attributing qiraat to those who recite it, the role of tawjīh al-qirāāt in tafsir, and his commentary on the qirāāt mentioned by him.
