Shaykh Tabarsi

[2] Tabarsi was born in the year 1073 AD in Tabaristan province or some scholars said in Tafresh a city which was named at those days Tabres, Iran.

[4] He had many students, most famous are his son Radhi ad-Din Tabarsi, author of the book Makarim al-Akhlaq, and Ibn Shahr-e Ashub.

[5] The location of his grave is disputed as to it being within the Imām Ridhā Shrine complex[2][6] or whether it lies in Mazandaran[citation needed].

His main work is Majma‘ al-bayān (Compendium of Elucidations on the Exegesis of the Quran), a commentary (tafsir) of Qur'an.

While Shia Scholars have written many commentaries of the Quran, none has been able to match the eloquence and magnitude of his book.
