The Guiding Institutions for Understanding the Holy Quran

The guiding tools for understanding the Holey Quran refer to a set of axioms that without taking them and their implications into consideration, a true and authentic understanding of the holy revealed text is not feasible. The author believes that these guiding institutions are among the most important chapters of the theological foundations and the philosophy of Exegesis. The revelation, guiding-orientation, rationality, the natural characteristic of its teachings, and the maturity of the language applied in the holy Quran are among the essentials of understanding the Divine Book. Principles such as the comprehensiveness, internal coherence, external order, and the systematic interconnectedness and interactions of the Divine words with the speeches and acts of innocent imams are inferable from the above institutions.In continuation of the related issues published in the previous edition of the Journal, the essay deals with explaining two more institutions.
