Explanation of the Teaching of Bada in Quran with a Shii Approach

The word bada' is common between man and God. The accurate understanding of bada' in God is based on narration, reason and conscience, and because of the complicatedness of its understanding, it had been the object of challenges and misgivings by its opponents. In the Islamic world, the most opponents of bada' have arose from amongst the Sunnis especially the Salafi Wahhabiyyah. Despite the Shia scholars scholarly and reasonably responded to their misgivings for a long time, some misgivings in this regard are offered again in their writings. One of the misgivings which in the recent years has been brought up is that bada' is a non-Islamic (Jewish) phenomenon and has no root in the Quran. The present article explains this issue with a Shii approach and tries to prove and explain the origin of bada' in the Quran.
