Abu al-Futuh al-Razi
Abū al-Futūḥ al-Ḥusayn ibn ʿAlī ibn Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad al-Khuzāʿī al-Rāzī al-Nīsābūrī, commonly known as Abū al-Futūḥ al-Rāzī or Abū al-Futūḥ Jamāl al-Din al-Rāzī al-Nīsābūrī, also known as Khaza'i Nishaburi, was a Twelver Shiʿite Muslim theologian and author. He came from a Khorasanian Arab family originally from Nishapur from the famous Khuza'a tribe, which settled in Nishapur after the Muslim conquest. According to Abu al-Futuh, his great-grandfather was Nafi' ibn Budayl ibn Warqa' al-Khuza'i, a companion of the prophet Muhammad. His grandfather had moved to Rayy.
His most famous work, Rawz al-jinan wa Ruh al-Janan, is considered the first Persian-language exegesis on the Quran. The book, consisting of twenty volumes, is the earliest surviving Persian tafsīr with an Imāmī Shīʿī emphasis. It delves into mystical themes regularly.
