Abstract

This paper attempted to discover the authenticity of interpretation work ordinated to Abdul Qodir Jailani.
This interpretation Sufism was published by two different publishers from two separate countries; Dar alKutub al-Ilmiyah located in Beirut, Lebanon and Markaz al-Jailani li al-Buhus al-Ilmiyah in Istanbul,
Turkey. This research is conducted from incredulity of ordination validity towards that interpretation work
(Tafsir). By reason that the script was similar to another spread-script whose title is Fawatih al-Ilahiyah
authored by Baba Ni’matullah Najwani. By comparison to two versions of Tafsir al-Jailani and one
version of al-Fawatih al-Ilahiyah, this research comes to conclusion that this Tafsir (Tafsir al-Jailani) is
inscription of Baba Ni’matullah Najwani, not Abdul Qodir al-Jailani. This conclusion goes against to
three points; first, the name in book cover is not compatible with the name in introduction as the author had
conveyed it in this Tafsir’s introduction; Second, the Author discussed many topics about Wahdat alWujud, a Sufism terminology acknowledged by Ibn Arabi who lived after Abdul Kodir al-Jailani. Third;
many terms engaged in this Tafsir have not turned out into Tasawwuf Scholars discourse in Abdul Qodir
Jailani’s period.
