Imam Muhammad 'Ali al-Sabuni is one of the leading scholars of Sunni Islam in the modern era. He was born in the city of Aleppo in 1930 to a family of learning. His father was one of the senior scholars of Aleppo. He received much of his initial and formal education in Arabic, inheritance and sciences of religion from his father, Shaykh Jamil.
Shaykh al-Sabuni is a specialist in the knowledge of Tafsir (Exegesis of the Holy Qur'an), & has authored one of the most widely accepted Tafsirs of the Qur’an entitled Safwat al-Tafasir (containing the Choicest Selections from the Books of Exegesis).
Since its publication in 1978 and with more depth than the renowned Tafs?r al-Jal?layn, ?afwat al-taf?s?r has quickly become the celebrated tafsir for beginners. It is recommended in Islamic Seminaries worldwide as a reliable reference point to acquire the orthodox Sunni understanding of the Qur'an.
