Popis: This research aims to shed light on the life and contributions of Sheikh Abu al-Tahir Isma'il ibn Khalaf ibn Sa'id al-Sarraqusṭī al-Andalusi (d. 455/1063) in the field of Qur'anic readings. Despite his significant influence, biographical accounts have lacked detailed information about him. Employing an inductive approach, the study examines biographical sources discussing his life and scholarly endeavors. He lived during a flourishing period of Qur'anic studies in the fifth century Hijri, traveling from Andalusia to Egypt to pursue knowledge and becoming proficient in the seven canonical readings. Notably, he authored valuable works such as "I'rab al-Qur'an" and "Al-Ikhtifā' fī al-Qirā'āt al-Sab'", which simplified and elaborated on the science of Qur'anic readings, making it accessible for both beginners and advanced scholars. His works became fundamental texts in Egypt and beyond, guiding scholars and students alike for centuries. Overall, this research illuminates the significant role Sheikh Abu al-Tahir played in advancing the study and practice of Qur'anic readings during his lifetime and beyond.
