Shaykh Hurr Ameli is one of the prominent Shia transmitters of traditions and of the scholars endeavored to present Shia theology in the form of revealed one. He was inspired in this method from Seyed Ibn Tavoos and Al-Shahid al-Thani. Method of Shaykh Hurr Ameli in presentation and explanation of theological discussions is reliance on Quranic verses and narrations and avoiding any type of rational argument. In sphere of intellect, he limited reason in beliefs before revelation, and in this scope, he holds that intrinsic knowledge satisfies our need to rational arguments. After establishment of religion, the role of intellect is confirmation and emphasis of the knowledge driven from Quran and tradition. However, Shaykh Hurr Ameli has used occasionally rational arguments in his theological book and in some cases has interpreted narrations opposing rational clear propositions.

Mu''tazilite thinkers use a rational approach to understanding religious texts and interpreting Quranic verses. Using a «descriptive-analytical method»، the present paper investigates the meaning and basis of rationalism adopted by Mu''tazilite in their interpretation of the Quran. «Mu''tazilite rationalism is that intellect priority over other proofs comes first in interpreting the Quran and that the soundness of Shari''ah statements and understanding of their purpose requires intellectual proofs. Accordingly، Mu''tazilites reject literalism in understanding religious texts and the Quran، and emphasize on the central role of intellect and intellectual objects of perception in the interpretation of the Quran. They regard the human nature of conventions and their position in language and recognizing the attributes of divine unity and justice as a condition for understanding the speaker''s perception of religious knowledge. The bases of Mu''tazilite rationalism in interpretation include temporality of the Quran، interpretability of the Quran، instructive and emphatic nature of Quranic statements about divine unity and justice and conformity between the judgment of intellect and Quranic assertions.
