تَرْجَمَةُ الشَّارِحِ.

Biography of the commentator.

اِسْمُهُ وَنَسَبُهُ وَمَوْلِدُهُ.

His name, lineage, and birth.

هُوَ الْعَلَّامَةُ عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ آلِ بَازٍ، وُلِدَ فِي الرِّيَاضِ عَامَ ١٣٣٠ هـ، وَنَشَأَ بِهَا نَشْأَةً صَالِحَةً فِي بَيْتِ صَلَاحٍ وَتُقًى،

He is the eminent scholar Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah bin Baz, born in Riyadh in 1330 AH. He was raised in a righteous home defined by piety and virtue.

وَكَانَتْ أُمُّهُ عَلَيْهَا رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ تُعِينُهُ عَلَى طَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ وَتُشَجِّعُهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ،

His mother, may Allah have mercy on her, supported and encouraged his pursuit of knowledge.

وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى فَلَهُ أَجْرُهُ وَأَجْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ.

Whoever calls others to guidance receives a reward equal to that of those who follow it, until the Day of Resurrection.

وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: طَلَبْتُ الْعِلْمَ وَأَنَا صَغِيرٌ وَحَفِظْتُ الْقُرْآنَ قَبْلَ الْخَامِسَةَ عَشَرَ فِيمَا أَذْكُرُ،

I heard him say: I began seeking knowledge at a young age and, as far as I recall, memorized the Quran before I turned fifteen.

وَبَقِيَ عَلَيَّ مِنْهُ سُوَرٌ قَلِيلَةٌ لَمْ أُتْقِنْهَا، أَتْقَنْتُهَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ السَّادِسَةَ عَشَرَ وَالسَّابِعَةَ عَشَرَ فِي غَالِبِ ظَنِّي،

There were a few surahs I had not yet mastered, but I believe I perfected those by the age of sixteen or seventeen.

وَأَمَّا خَتْمِي لِلْقُرْآنِ نَظَرًا فَهُوَ فِي حَالِ الصِّغَرِ: إِمَّا فِي الْعَاشِرَةِ أَوْ فِي الْحَادِيَةَ عَشَرَ تَقْرِيبًا،

I completed reading the Quran in my childhood, likely around the age of ten or eleven.

وَأَمَّا بَدْئِي لِطَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ فَهُوَ فِي عَامِ ١٣٤٤ هـ فِيمَا أَذْكُرُ، وَقَدْ يَكُونُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ، لَكِنِّي لَا أَذْكُرُ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا فِي غَالِبِ ظَنِّي أَنَّهُ بَدَأَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ وَالْأَرْبَعِينَ بَعْدَ الْأَلْفِ وَالثَّلَاثِمِائَةِ مِنَ الْهِجْرَةِ النَّبَوِيَّةِ وَأَنَا فِي الرَّابِعَةَ عَشَرَ.

I began my formal studies in 1344 AH, though it may have been earlier. To the best of my recollection, I was fourteen when I started.

شُيُوخُهُ: تَتَلْمَذَ الشَّيْخُ عَلَى أَئِمَّةٍ فِي الْعِلْمِ وَالْعَمَلِ

His teachers: The Sheikh studied under leading figures in both scholarship and practice.

مِنْهُمُ الشَّيْخُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّطِيفِ آلِ الشَّيْخِ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ الْمُتَوَفَّى سَنَةَ ١٣٦٧ هـ،

Among them was Sheikh Muhammad bin Abd al-Latif Al al-Sheikh, who passed away in 1367 AH, may Allah have mercy on him.

وَمِنْهُمُ الشَّيْخُ الْعَلَّامَةُ سَعْدُ بْنُ حَمْدِ بْنِ عَتِيقٍ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ الْمُتَوَفَّى سَنَةَ ١٣٤٥ هـ، أَخَذَ عَنْهُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ وَعُلُومِهِ وَالْعَقِيدَةِ وَالْفِقْهِ،

He also studied under the scholar Sheikh Saad bin Hamad bin Atiq, who died in 1345 AH, may Allah have mercy on him. He learned Hadith, its related sciences, creed, and jurisprudence from him.

وَدَرَسَ عَلَى الشَّيْخِ حَمْدِ بْنِ فَارِسٍ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ الْمُتَوَفَّى سَنَةَ ١٣٦٧ هـ.

He further studied under Sheikh Hamad bin Faris, who passed away in 1367 AH, may Allah have mercy on him.
