Abstract

This research is about collecting Imam Al-Dani’s guidance for the readings through his book Jami’ Al-Bayan fi Al-Qira’at Al-Sab’a. This research aims to stand on Imam Al-Dani’s efforts in guiding the readings, and highlighting the scientific value of the readings he directed, as they are a reference for those who came after him. I introduced the research with an introduction in which I mentioned a brief definition of the science of directing readings, then I introduced Imam Al-Dani and his book Jami’ Al-Bayan, discussing his approach to directing readings, then I limited the places of directing in the arrangement of letters from the beginning of Surah Maryam to the end of Surah Fatir, and I studied them, and concluded the research by mentioning the most important results I reached, including that the book Jami’ Al-Bayan by Imam Al-Dani is considered a scientific encyclopedia in the art of readings, including the multiplicity of forms of directing by Imam Al-Dani and their diversity between narration and transmission, the drawing of the Qur’an, similar counterparts, language, context, and others, including that Imam Al-Dani maintained not to take his book out of its main topic- narrating readings and distinguishing methods- so his presentation of the issues of directing was a brief presentation, without entering into grammatical discussions and opposing opinions.
