Evaluation of Quranic components and documents of Dr. Soroush's dream theory of revelation with emphasis on Allameh Tabatabai's view

"Revelation dreaming" is a theory that Dr. Abdolkarim Soroush has recently presented and by passing from two traditional theories and religious empiricism of revelation. The present article analyzes the Quranic components and documents of this theory with a descriptive-analytical method and evaluates them with emphasis on Allameh Tabatabai's point of view. Through this research, it becomes clear that "monopoly of revelation in the dream", "internalization of the apostolic dream", "the influence of the dream on the character of the Prophet (PBUH)", "ambiguity and mystery of the language of the dream" and "necessity of interpreting the apostolic dream" are the most prominent components of this theory. . As in order to prove it, a series of Quranic verses have been cited. However, it seems that this theory is not only inconsistent with the culture of the Qur'an and narrations, and the Qur'anic documents do not prove its truth, but also many verses and narrations testify to its invalidity, which is explained in the text of the present article.
