The subject of the forthcoming article is “Interpretation from the perspective of Nasr Hamed Abu Zayd and Allameh Tabataba’i and its relation to the principles of Hermeneutics in commentary”. Nasr Hamed is a specialist in Arabic literature and a contemporary Egyptian thinker who has views influenced by Western philosophers, in particular the Gadamer Hermeneutics about the authenticity, efficiency and the method of understanding Quran especially the Interpretation. He presents different definitions of interpretation in his works which results in the denial of efficiency of some verses and, as a result, misleads the public. Contrary to Allameh Tabataba’i, he doesn’t consider the interpretation as the truth of the Quran and the guardian of all Quran and specific to the Infallibles. He believes that some of the verses are without interpretation.
Knowing his views and criticizing them will block the way to deviation of thought in understanding the Quran.

There are verses in the Holy Quran that proves the leadership and Imamate of Ali (PBUH) after the Holy Prophet. The Sunni scholars and interpreters raise doubts about the indication of these verses. Since Fakhr-e-Razi is one of the most prominent Sunni interpreters who rejected the immediate Imamate of Ali (PBUH) and believed in the caliphate of Abu Bakr after the Prophet, review, and rejection of his misconceptions is of great importance. Therefore, present study has reviewed all doubts of Fakhr-e-Razi, according to the Kabir interpretation regarding the 12 verses from the Quran that are associated with this subject in order of verses of the Holy Quran. Fakhr-e-Razi has referred to Ali (PBUH) with respect and reverence following the doubts. However, in some cases, he hasn’t mentioned the name of Ali (PBUH) with pray that couldn’t be due to the disrespect to the majesty, since he has refered to other companions of the Prophet, such as Abu Bakr, Omar, and Osman in the same way.

Throughout history, the issue of exaggeration has always existed not only among Muslims but also before Islam. But what is been under investigation is that at the time of exaggeration, how much interaction can be observed in the speech and behavior of the individual or those who are been exaggerated? And how was of the Imams’ (PBUT) interaction against exaggerators? This study identifies the behavioral logic and the Holy Imams’ (PBUT) interactions against claims of the exaggerators.
The result is that Ahl al-Bayt (PBUT) had no debate with any of exaggerators. Since they believed that rational purpose and conclusion are a requisite for every debate and dialogue. On the other hand, they expressed true beliefs against untrustworthy thoughts and beliefs. Obviously, they denounced and expressed their disgust of exaggerators’ beliefs, and if the rejected belief was precisely attributed to a individual or group of individuals from the exaggerators, those majesties would reject, reproach, and excommunicate them.

The present research, titled "Interpretation of the Holy Quran in the words of Imam Sajjad (PBUH)", attempts to examine his interpretative methods, which are the methods to discover God's significance of verses. These methods inculde narrative (Quran to Quran, narrative), ijtihad (rational, literary), and the method of discussion and accommodation. Imam Sajjad’s (PBUH) interpretative method is comprehensive and diverse. It is essential to analyze these methods due to the influence of Imam’s interpretive methods for understanding Quran and solving the cultural and scientific issues. The present study had been benefitted from descriptive-analytical method.

The first ignorance of verse 33 of the Ahzab surah indicates another ignorance that will take place in the future. Nowadays, we are facing with the second type of ignorance known as modern ignorance. This ignorance is much deeper and more radical than the first ignorance since this is the ignorance of science and technology. In this paper, some of the components of first ignorance according to Imam Ali's viewpoint and its instances in the second ignorance are investigated. Data are collected via the library method and research method is descriptive-analytical and the result is summarized in the presence of behavioral and belief components. These components are in the age of first ignorance including, polytheism, superstitions, filicide, tribal fanaticism, and boasting, etc. And since these components are not limited to a specific period and place, it can be observed from the instances of second ignorance as, oblivion of human identity, humanism, secularism, genocide, corruption, boasting, and etc.

This study examines the foundations and principles of the soft war against the enemy from the perspective of the Holy Quran using the library method. The aim of this study is to show that, returning to the pure Quranic teachings in all cultural, social and political arenas is a way to triumph over the soft war phenomenon. Because of the profound and invisible influence of the soft war, it is essential to adopt inviolable foundations and principles.
In this regard, the Holy Quran, considering the inhuman and satanic nature of the soft war that attempts to mislead human beings, mentions the principles: being committed to the purpose of human creation and guidance, observance of ethical and human standards, respect for freedom and humanity, and fighting against arrogance, and defines the principles of combating against the enemy in the formation of a divine government for the implementation of divine rules and the creation of the power of political and cultural deterrence, the diplomacy, and the aggressive resistance against the enemy.
It is notable that the Quran's main strategy in the soft war is to prevent the impact of the enemy's soft attack and protect the religious and Islamic identity of the Islamic society.
