Vahyin Şahidi, Kur'an'ın Müfessiri Hz. Aişe. Hatice Görmez. Ankara: OTTO Yayınları, 2021, 347 Sayfa

The subject of this article is Hatice Gormez's book which is improved version of the master's thesis titled "Aisha's Tafsīr Rivāyahs". In the work, ʿĀʾisha bt. Abī Bakr's life and scientific personality, her method of understanding and interpreting the Qur'ān, her rivāyahs on ʿulūm al-Qurʾān, her rivāyahs on ʿulūm alQurʾān, her istidraqs and fatwās related to tafsir, the narrations of fezâil and hasaisu'n-nebi, her narratives evaluated in the different sources of tafsīr, and compelled and fabricated tafsīr rivāyahs attributed to ʿĀʾisha were discussed. The author, who uses both a literary and scientific style in his work, touched upon controversial issues such as ʿĀʾisha 's age and the amr al-ifk and presented her point of view on these issues. While discussing these claims, ignoring some rivāyahs and some historical information is one of the critics for the work. In addition, the work deserves praise for successfully
presenting ʿĀʾisha's scientific side and especially her exegesis with many rivāyahs.
