From this standpoint، faith has root in wisdom and intellect of man، and it grows and becomes complete based on reason. In this case، the semantic analysis of this linkage in Quran، and especially argument and mechanism of faith generation by reason، which has been less discussed by researchers، has double importance. From semantics viewpoint of reason، faith and determinant keywords and their related concepts، in verse 100 of Surah Yūnus، and other verses of Holy Quran، it can be inferred that reason would reach to his lost، which is a searching، understanding and commitment that human holds about the reality، in the course of the signs that are messengers of the reality، via notice، thinking and contemplation، i. e. safety and confidence، and because of his knowledge about the reality، wise embrace the faith that is calmness and security in spirit، language and deed، and this type of security and stability is origin in the reality itself، and dynamism and increasing of the faith are result from dynamism and increasing and commitment in rationality that seeking the reality.
