Tafsir al-Shinqitee Translation Index - Tulayhah

He was born in the year 1907 (or 1897) in a region called “Shanqeet” also known as the Chinguetti Department which is the eastern part of the state of Mauritania, which lies on the (eastern) coast of the Atlantic Ocean, south of Morocco and Algeria and north of Senegal.; hence, his title “Shanqeeti”.

Source of knowledge:

He gained most of his knowledge from his family since he was born into a very educated household.

His lineage traces back to Ya’qūb Bin Jākin, the forefather of the large tribe, known as the Jaknees. At the tender age of ten, he memorized the Qur`ān with his uncle, Abdullah Bin Muhammad al-Mukhtār Bin Ibrahīm Bin Ahmad Nooh al-Jaknee.
