Abstract
This article deals with the Holy Qur’an as a source of tafsir with respect to early common methods of tafsir, mainly Riwayah and Dirayah commentaries and later on in terms of the practice of interpretation and concept tafsirs in the course of the historical process. Among tafsir commentators, the most reliable and trusted method is Tafsir al-Qur’an bil-Qur’an, interpreting the Qur’an with reference to the Qur’an itself. With this assumption in mind, this research tries to find answers to the following questions by employing subjectivity and objectivity value in the application of this method of tafsir: Are commentators regard Tafsir al-Qur’an bil-Qur’an as an indispensable method of tafsir for every verse? Does the source itself make it possible for commentators using this method to reach consensus on some of the verses? Does this practice of tafsir, as an element of exposition , in the course of the historical process make some verses indispensable? In the collected works of tafsir, when the verses used to explain a verse are taken into consideration, what kind of spectrum is observed from past into the future?
