Well, I wasn't trying to gloat about it, I just meant to say that she knows what she's talking about. And that is not to say anything I post here is in any way endorsed or signed off on by her in case anyone gets the wrong idea. I'm just a layperson.

Anyway, I asked her. She said there's two versions of Tafsir Ibn Abbas, and that Tanwir al-Miqbas is the less authentic of the two. The one published by Darul Fikr in Beirut is the 'better' one, and there's no major issues with it. She said something about the Companion that this chain goes back to (forgot the name as I type this, it's on the cover below) being good (and not the same as in the other one).

I took a picture of its cover:

If anyone would like me to take a picture of any other pages, I have it on my desk here for a little while.
