Ibn Kathir mentioned the reason for writing The Virtues of the Holy Quran: to aid in memorization and application of the Quran. He said, “Al-Bukhari mentioned the book on the virtues of the Quran after the book on exegesis because exegesis is more important, so he began with it. We have presented the virtues before the exegesis, and mentioned the virtue of each surah before its exegesis, so that this will motivate the memorization, understanding, and application of the Quran. And Allah is the One from whom help is sought.”

The book's title and content clearly indicate that its purpose is to explore the virtues of the Holy Quran. The author discusses various topics related to the Quran, beginning with its compilation, Uthman ibn Affan's writing of the Quranic manuscripts, the reciters among the Prophet's companions, and the proper recitation style. Interestingly, he does not discuss the virtues of each individual chapter (surah) of the Quran, but rather focuses on the overall themes and their study.

The author relied on citing and discussing the opinions of scholars in his topics, and on what al-Bukhari said in his book on the virtues of the Qur'an in his Sahih. He quotes al-Bukhari's words and comments on them. Each chapter begins with a hadith on the topic, or a statement by al-Bukhari, followed by his commentary.

The author: A hadith scholar, Qur'anic exegete, and jurist, he was born in Majdal, near Damascus, in 701 AH. His father died in 703 AH, and he moved to Damascus with his brother, Kamal al-Din, in 707 AH after his father's death. He memorized the Qur'an and completed its memorization in 711 AH. He studied the different readings of the Qur'an, compiled Qur'anic exegesis, and memorized the text of "al-Tanbih" on Shafi'i jurisprudence in 718 AH. He also memorized Ibn al-Hajib's abridgment and studied jurisprudence under the two sheikhs, Burhan al-Din al-Fazari and Kamal al-Din Ibn Qadi Shahba. He heard hadith from Ibn al-Shahna, Ibn al-Zarrad, Ishaq al-Amidi, Ibn Asakir, al-Mizzi, and Ibn al-Rida. He began explaining Sahih al-Bukhari and studied with al-Mizzi, reading "Tahdhib al-Kamal" with him. He married his daughter to Ibn Taymiyyah, and he was a companion of Ibn Taymiyyah. He oversaw several scholarly schools during that era, including: Dar al-Hadith al-Ashrafiyyah, al-Salihiyyah School, al-Najibiyyah School, al-Tankiziyah School, and al-Nuriyyah al-Kubra School. He died in Sha'ban 774 AH, having suffered from dementia in his later years. He was buried next to Ibn Taymiyyah in the Sufi cemetery outside Bab al-Nasr in Damascus. He authored several works, the most famous of which are: Tafsir al-Qur'an al-'Azim (The Great Commentary on the Qur'an), al-Bidayah wa al-Nihayah (The Beginning and the End), Tabaqat al-Shafi'iyyah (The Classes of the Shafi'i Scholars), al-Ba'ith al-Hathith (The Urgent Motivation), a commentary on Mukhtasar 'Ulum al-Hadith (The Abridgment of the Sciences of Hadith), and al-Sirah al-Nabawiyyah (The Prophetic Biography). He also wrote a treatise on jihad, began a large book on legal rulings but did not complete it, and wrote a commentary on Sahih al-Bukhari, which is now lost.

❇️ Some Reviews of Ibn Kathir's "The Virtues of the Holy Quran" ❇️

▪️Source of reviews: www.goodreads.com/ar/book/show/13551570▪️

- In this book, Ibn Kathir answered many questions that had crossed my mind and which I had jotted down in my notebook while reading later and contemporary scholars about the compilation and arrangement of the Quran. What distinguished Ibn Kathir from others I had read was his relative proximity to the three preferred generations (of Muslims), and perhaps a resonance between my mind and his. I don't say this to elevate myself, nor even to claim a close relationship, but it was as if Ibn Kathir perceived what was going on in my heart and answered it, and heard my concerns and soothed them with the ink of his pen.

- I love any book that speaks about the Quran, reminds us of its immense virtue, and draws us closer to it.
Rana Saadeh

- It added vocabulary to my language that I was unfamiliar with, as well as some information I didn't know, such as the misconception that the Uthmani script attributed to Uthman ibn Affan (may God be pleased with him) was written by him. The truth is that it was written by Zayd ibn Thabit, but it was Uthman (may God be pleased with him) who ordered and oversaw its creation, hence the attribution to him.
