CR？T？C？SM OF THE CLA？M OF THE ABROGAT？ON OF TEMETTU？ HAJJ ？N THE CONTEXT OF THE ？NTERPRETAT？ON OF THE VERSE 2: 196

Examining of the expressions in the shi’i tafsirs of al-T？s？, al-Tabataba？ and al-Sh？raz？ in the context of the interpretation of the verse 2: 196, it is seen that a number of the companions notably ‘Umar express that they forbid tamattu’ hajj which is proven in the Qur'an. These interpreters cite many narrations which indicate that these above-cited companions abrogated or repealed the provision of this verse. On the basis of these narrations, they infer that these companions really prohibited or abrogated tamattu’ hajj. In this study, the arguments of this claim of the above-cited interpreters are formerly examined. It is tried to determine whether these arguments are authentic or not. Thereafter, it is examined whether these narrations reveal the fact that the verse of the verse is abrogated or repealed or not and, in the case of the latter, the question of what these narrations mean is answered. In conclusion, some of these narrations are weak and some of them are misunderstood. In terms of abrogation criteria, it is understood that these narrations never indicate abrogation but they merely express a provision based on public interest and this is not in opposition to the text of the Quran
