Quran Interpretation Scholars Convene in Qom
The gathering, held on the occasion of the 35th demise anniversary of Allameh Tabatabayi, is underway in the house of the late Quran interpreter and philosopher.
400 Quran commentary scholars of seminary schools from around the country are present at the three-day event, IRNA reported.
A number of senior seminary scholars and sources of emulation including Ayatollah Abdollah Javadi Amoli, Ayatollah Mohammad Yazdi, and Ayatollah Jafar Sobhani will address the gathering.
Allameh Seyed Mohammad Hossein Tabatabayi (16 March 1903 – 7 November 1981) was one of the most prominent thinkers of philosophy and contemporary Shia Islam.
He is famous for his Tafsir al-Mizan, a twenty-volume work of Quranic exegesis, which he worked on from 1954 until 1972.
