The Effect of Recognition of Addressee’s Concentration on Understanding the Holy Qur’an and Sunnah

In many cases, addressees have rational perceptions and pre-concentrations towards the subject matter prescribed by the Divine Law. In this paper, it is argued that in such cases, before entering into the text and using verbal indications, one must have a rational analysis, i.e. the concentration is the primary principle; therefore, if the divine law changes the text, it is acceptable, otherwise the concentration of an addressee (direct addressee) will be prescribed by the divine law and then will be followed by the others as well. In addition, the rational understanding of an addressee about the topic of a dialogue is a sign between the speaker and him in the course of mutual understanding. In confining matters, however, the mere reliance on the interpretation of the text must be verbal indications. The commitment to this has valuable interpretative, jurisprudential, and principal functions, that guides the views of a jurist as the interpreter of the text and prevents him of misconceptions. In some cases, ignoring this rule, leads to misconceptions in reading the Book and Sunnah.
