It has been found out that Al-Zamakhshary in hisbook 'Al-Kashaf' prefers some recitations and considers othersweak. As the seven recitations are agreed upon, comparison isnot allowed.It is our aim here to explore these phenomena in thisstudy untitled (Al-Zamakhshary's attitude tot he sevenrecitations in 'Al-Kashaf': a study of the opening chapter (Al-Fatiha) and the long surus. The first long sura is Al-Baqara(The Cow), and the last one is Al-Tawba (Repentance). Thestudy gives Al-Zamakhshary's opinion and others' who agreedwith him. Then we give the scientific evidence to prove himwrong, and that the two recitations are agreed upon and thatboth were used by the prophet.
