[edit] Introduction

Muslims believe that in the same way that there is Hadith Qudsi, God has revealed commentaries to the Qur'an. Often, they have the same form as the verse it is commentating on, but has an addition to the end - in other words, a verse followed by a commentary.

It is a well-known Muslim belief that Hadith Qudsi are also revelations, but they are not a part of the Qur'an.

[edit] Scholars views

• "There are differences concerning the reciting of additional words [outside the Qur'anic verse], Qadhi Abu Tayib, and many other 'ulama held such recitals to be permissible, Imam Abu Hanifa also adhered to this school of thought". ^[1]

[edit] Use

Among the verses that have a Tafsir Qudsi is verse 4:24, narrated by Ibn Abbas.
