As one of the greatest theologians of his time Sheikh Tūsī had been under the influence of other great theologians like Sheikh Mufīd and Siyyid Murtazā and had focused specifically on Kalām (theological)-rational issues in his analytic work, the Tibyān. Sheikh Tūsī has always had a particular stance on the matter of Kalam (disambiguation) which can be apprehended by realizing the focus he has put on kalam in the Tibyān. Sheikh Tūsī has also greatly influenced later Quranic scholars such as Tabarsī. The rationalism which is visible in the Tibyān can most likely be linked to the school of Kalām in Baqdād and the intellectual school of Muʿtazila. These links can also be found in the Majma'ul Bayan but they are not quite as strong as the links in the Tibyān. The intellectual developments in the fifth and sixth centuries and Sheikh Tūsī and Tabarsī's perspectives towards these developments can be analyzed through the explanatory and critical works of these two scholars on a long parade of different intellectual- ideological Muʿtazila groups and ideologies. The three major stances toward the interpretational votes of mu'tazila in this research are explanatory, realistic and critical. Moreover the research is a cross-sectional study. Both of the interpreters have tried to defend the theological Kalām foundations of Shia.

In holy Quran, " shak " has been employed 15 times of which 6 times accompanied " murīb " adjective. this term has phonetic commonality with its Persian counterpart which causes misunderstanding .Quranic use of the terms dates back to the time when there were no derivatives of term " shak " ,hence etymology of connotation of this term has used refer to lexical scholar as first step of investigation and as second step, we go into Quranic usage of this term with focus on semantic and contextual analysis and traditional interpretation using interpretive features. In view of the variety of uses of the word "shak" and in terms of the implications of these verses in the Quran, we can say: "shak" in the Holy Quran and has two completely different usages and the basis for the difference is the coming or not of the "murīb" adjective along with this term in Quranic applications.

The interdisciplinary interaction of the Quran and history has a long history. It has always been necessary for commentators to explain the parts of the Qur'an by the history. By over time, the methods that historians used became more complex and more capable of solving their problems but the commentators did not move along with these advancements, Therefore, in the area of its historical methods, there are many mistakes is visible. The methods used by contemporary commentators to explain historical issues do not differ significantly from those of earlier commentators. Therefore, we are confronted with repeated inefficiencies in this area. This article uses an analytical-descriptive method with a critical perspective to examine the strengths and weaknesses that are significant in the historical methods of commentators. The study of these points helps to reach the advanced and native model in the application of historical methods in the Quranic commentary.

Phrase of "azm al-umūr" in suras Luqmān, Shurā and Al Imrān, translated in different phrase by Quran Persian translators and also commentators interpreted it in different meaning so that the main message of the verses has been forgotten. This article tries to say that unlike most interpreters and translators of the Quran, azm al-umūr is a definitive command of God. That is, in any case, the truth in the relevant verse should not be easy. Therefore, this structure is used in cases that are of great importance to the speaker in such a way that he is never happy to leave it.

The term: "ittaqu allah" and its various derived forms in the Arabic language, is one of the most basic and common terms in Islamic texts and religious culture and morality specially in the Quranic terminology and verses. The complexity and the significance of its semantic indications in one hand , and the off-point meanings and Inference and Explanations, in the other hand, requires a serious look into it. There are four features of the term here in this paper discussed :1. The meaningful base-unit of the term. 2. The conceptual meaning of the term and its basic and generative units, 3. The sematic applications and concepts of that unit, 4. The meaning of, restrain yourself in God' path , in its verb-based signals and implications. So ,the paper explains various possible applications and semantic indications of the term "ittaqu allah" chasteness and its interpretive possibilities. It implies advice, watch fullness, self-guarding, resistance ,alertness, alarm, warn, and sort of being aware of ultimate out came of deeds and acts, keeping oneself from faults and wrong-doings. The method the paper employs for its utter representation is analytic description-analysis, using inferring and knowledge-production hand logical efforts of the past learned people, the opinions of the morphologists concerned.

A critical research on the absolute comprehensiveness approach to the Quran The research before you is an outlook on the triple approaches about comprehensiveness of the Quran. The writer tries to select the third tenet i.e. the inclusion of the Quran for all human needs, by the Quranic critical studies and validity of the approach generally considers the Quran as a comprehensive set of all things, and some of subsets of the approach considers the Quran partly as an only guidance tool, and is comprehensive in comparison with the other sacred books. Undoubtedly, the sufficiency of the arguments of this part has abrogated another approach considered as a historical event, and restricted it to a special temporal bed.The writer studies the relevant verses carefully and according to the literary gap and analyzing the words “tibyān“ and “kul”, arguing in the favor of the verses to prove the total comprehensiveness is questioned. Traditions have also been divided into two groups in this article. The group covers the first word is classified into five subgroups for more investigation and reviewed and finally their significations for the first word consider insufficient. The second group are the hadiths not being referred in the Quran which proves the writer’s point of view. And of course this group is the reason of the writer for a selective base.

Structural criticism was first introduced in western school of thought and then commonly adopted in our studies. Through carrying out linguistic studies, it attempts to clarify the nature of literary works and their characteristics. The objective of this school is to discover cohesion in form and meaning in these works. Structure is, in fact, the relationship among components of a whole and structuralism investigates them as a complete unified system. Undoubtedly, applying these modern theories in the analysis of the text of the Holy Quran which is a unique literary text, will scientifically prove the literary miracle of Quran from the aesthetic point of view. Exploring the strong relations among verses as well as complete coordination among form, meaning and music and rhythm reveals why the words of God are so influential. However, some discuss lack of relationship among verses in different chapters of Quran. Therefore, with an introduction to text analysis in structural criticism, this study aimed at investigating the structure of Surat al-Ḥāqqah of Quran and its structural cohesion in three levels of music and rhythm, lexicon and syntax in verses and the whole chapter with an analytic-descriptive method. The investigation of the structure and content of this chapter of Quran, indicated the correlation among intent, meaning and form. The rhythm of sounds and words, the type of sentences and the short verses and words in this chapter are all in coordination with the intent of the chapter which is to visualize the resurrection day and its fears.

"Ḥamd" is one of the key words in the context of worship in the Holy Quran. The word in Arabic dictionaries and Qur'anic exegeses interpreted to ‘praise’ in view to denotation meaning, And in view to connotation, its relationship with a sense of ‘Shukr’ (thank) and ‘Ḥamd (praise) also been debated.It seems that due to the uncertainty raised in this matter, especially in the connotation (not in the denotation sense) it is necessary to study its exact meaning with new semantic methods to understand it more tangible.The article follows the approach of historical-comparative linguistics to reach the etymology of the stem ‘Ḥamd’ in the Semitic language sources, and finally, it has been found that the more ancient meaning of this root that was being understood in the preceding period of the Semitic language was ‘desire’. The use of this stem in the sense of ‘desire’ has been recorded in the texts of the central northern branch of Semitic languages.

The concept of "ḍalālat" is one of the most important concepts of Quran so we can say most of the main concepts of Quran directly or indirectly are able to arrange in two semantics fields: "Hidāyat" or "ḍalālat". The semantic field of "Hidāyat - ḍalālat" the same as all of the main quranic concepts revolve around the "Allah". The real "zalalat" only occur when God mislead come with it. This study has been proposed in order to explore the semantic levels of the "iḍlāle alāhī" term in the Quran and its purpose is to explain the coherence and continuity of quranic knowledge use some new semantic methods to explain the term "iḍlāle alāhī" and explore its semantic components in the Quran. By studding 32 verses which included the "iḍlāle alāhī" by using simultaneous approach and extraction syntagmatic and pragmatic concepts and also analyzing the applications this result was achieved that the concept of "Hidāyat" is opposite of this concept. Persons who don't accept primary guidance of God and have features like "kufr", "ẓulm", "fisq", "nifāq" and "isrāf" were deserve God mislead which means the transformation of human realization by God. Concepts like "izāghe", "tab’", "khatm", deafen, blind, "taghlīb", increasing hurt illness and "sarf" are substitute "iḍlāle alāhī" concept. Guidance is just from God so everyone who deserve God mislead can't find any other leader or protector and never find the right way.
