One of the aspects of miracles that have made the Qur'anic commentators ponder is the miracle of content of the Quran; This  type of miracle is related to the inner concepts of the Qur'an, and although various components can be enumerated for it, but the components agreed upon by both parties can be considered as indisputability, news from the unseen, the inside layers of the Qur'an, scientific miracles, and the comprehensiveness of the Qur'an, which include axes such as legislation, guidance, legal, ethical issues, etc.. What can be deduced from the comparative study reveals  that the attention to this type of miracle during different centuries has been faced with intensity and weaknesses, which in the different time course, each of the two groups  has been paid special attention to it, and has  fundamental differences in the formulation of the problem, beliefs and methods of formulation with each other, for example, regarding the inside layers ( بطون) of the Holy Qur'an, despite accepting and considering this component as certain,  no discussion is made  in the words of the Sunnis, while the Shia has paid special attention to it, or on the basis , the Shia, contrary to the Sunnis, believe that infallibles are the only real authority to dispel the doubts and they are knowledgeable about the Qur'an. Therefore, this article  tries to analyze the components of content miracles from the point of view of Shiite and Sunni commentators via a descriptive-analytical approach.

To study the inimitability of the Qur’an, many Qur’anic exegetes have obviously paid more attention to its lexical and rhetorical features. However, it should not be forgotten that an important aspect of inimitability of the Qur’an can also be considered related to its content, which in its turn correlates to the inner meanings of the Qur’an. What can be deduced from the comparison shows that attention to this specific aspect of inimitability has been associated with strengths and weaknesses over the centuries. Accordingly, the present study tries through an analytical-comparative approach to examine the examples of the inimitability of the content of the Qur’an from the perspective of Shi’ite and Sunni scholars. Comparing the two viewpoints, one can recognize that although these two groups do not differ much in expressing the dimensions of the inimitability of the Qur’anic contents, the main discrepancy between them seems related to the type of attention to these examples. In addition, Sunni exegetes have paid more attention to this aspect in the first centuries, while their Shi’ite colleagues have mostly heeded these examples in contemporary times. Of course, a more careful study of the viewpoints of Shi’ite and Sunni scholars shows that there are some differences between them in the examples of contents and issues related to them. For example, one can refer to a case such as buṭūn (ventricles) of the Qur’an that, although its instances are quoted in the Sunni narrations, with a slight omission from the Prophet (PBUH) or his companions, do not raise a significant issue, however, the Shi’ites have paid special attention to it.
