tafsr

Tafsr is a term that may appear in English-language texts as a variant transliteration or misspelling of tafsir, the Islamic science of Qur'anic exegesis. The Arabic term tafsir (تفسير) means interpretation or explanation, and in scholarship it denotes a collection of commentaries that elucidate the meanings, linguistic features, historical context, and legal or theological implications of Qur'an verses. Classical and modern works across Sunni and other Muslim traditions are described as tafsir, such as Tafsir al-Tabari, Tafsir Ibn Kathir, and Tafsir al-Jalalayn.

Usage and spelling: The standard transliterations are tafsir or tafsir; Tafsr is not a recognized standard form and often results from typographical or transliteration inconsistencies. In most academic and religious references, "tafsir" or "tafsir" with proper diacritics is preferred.

Other uses: As a standalone proper noun, Tafsr does not correspond to a widely known organization, place, or person in widely available sources. If encountered as a name in fiction or niche publications, its meaning would depend on the specific work.
