Abstract
Common signs of historicity in the text of the Quran and traditions, such as answering the audience's question or reflecting the socio-cultural conditions of the audience; Also, differences such as conflicting news that are specific to traditions; make it necessary to compare the possible and concrete effects of historical conditions on the revelation of verses and the issuance of traditions. As the observation of the differences that exist in the opinions of Islamic scholars highlights the necessity of comparing this impact on the understanding of the Quran and traditions. For this purpose, in the present study, signs of historicity in the Quran and traditions were analytically compared. The specific results of the construction, despite the commonalities in these signs, the specific way of expression of the Quran has created a significant distinction between the Quran and the traditions in terms of the historicity of the text. A distinction that will be more clearly explained by the concept of being subject to historical conditions rather than being affected by historical conditions or historicity. As a result, the text of the Quran only refers to historical conditions, while the text of many traditions is strongly or weakly influenced by historical conditions or historicity due to historical considerations taken into account by the Imams (a.s.). Also, the historicity of understanding has been more prevalent in traditions compared to the Quran due to complications such as transmission of meaning.
