Quantitative and qualitative research review in particular fields provides better understanding of how research is conducted, how methods are used, and how progress is made. The process of conducting research activities, especially interdisciplinary studies which have resulted in new achievements, should be assessed with systematic review in order to identify previous studies, approaches, and topics that researchers like. Also, it should be a criterion for carrying out future researches, so gaps and appropriate fields can be identified. As a systematic review and citation evaluation of cognitive linguistics studies are among the tools proposed in the field of interdisciplinary studies of Qur’an and tradition, the current study focuses on all the research conducted in the period of 2006 to 2021in the form of 112 articles, 9 treatises, 15 theses, and 6 books. The publication process, determining the most prolific authors and the most cited books and articles, calculation the amount of citation to various information sources, determining the language coverage of citations, assessing researchers’ participation and cooperation, and evaluating the content and quality of works are among the accomplishments of the present study.

The present article deals with research issues related to verse 23 of al-Anbiya' Surah and their methodical classification along with answering method for each issue. This research seeks to answer this main question that how the problem-oriented approach can go beyond the problem and the difficulty of the “God who is not questioned” concept, to different problems in three sets of message analysis, message basics and metamessage to achieve the message and at the same time ensure the goodness of these issues. In the "message analysis" section, the research method is the logical analysis of the verse’s content structure in the form of four sub-branches: meaning expression, conceptual analysis, propositional analysis and systemic analysis. In the "analysis of the message basics” section, using the explaining the "causes" of the verse’s messages method, we analyze the imaginary and affirmative bases of the verse’s contents, and in the "Analysis of the Meta-Message" section, we analyze the consequences, accessories, results and objective effects of the verse’s contents. The problem-oriented encounter with “God who is not questioned”, considering the multi-origin nature of the issues hidden in the verse, passes the dangers of incoherent intermingling of the boundaries of disciplines, one-dimensional and referral interpretation, the application of theories to the verse’s content and arbitrary interpretation. It shows the necessity of inter-discipline in verse interpretation and methodical application of context analysis, old and new logic, philosophy and theology.

Human societies’ confrontation with death has been different; In addition to the advice to forget, some cultures, such as Islam, have prescribed death thinking at the top of their teachings. In this article, with the aim of discovering the model of religious death thinking, the thought of Imam Ali (A.S.) and the data of Nahj al-Balagha are studied. The research method is qualitative analysis and "grounded theory" method. First, in the information gathering stage, sentences containing the word "death" and its synonyms were extracted with the help of the Alawites encyclopedia software, and then the resulting data were coded in three stages using the Strauss and Corbin approach. From 142 propositions related to death, 152 primary concepts and 23 main categories were obtained through theoretical and purposeful sampling. In the meantime, the category of "death inevitability" with the highest frequency was chosen as the central category and other categories were discovered and connected to it as causal, contextual and intervening conditions. At the end, the strategies and consequences were obtained and all the categories were presented as a paradigm model.

Man is a creature that must live in society. Nature and wisdom confirm this issue. Establishing and maintaining appropriate social communication has a great effect on people's identification, improving life quality, flourishing employees’ talents, increasing productivity and, as a result, social health. This research’s main goal is to explain the health components of social relations in the Holy Qur’an and to help its application in the society in accordance with the extensive scientific advances in social sciences and psychology. Since the relationship with others occupies most of the activities and the successful relations effect on mental health, this research, using the content analysis method, tried to identify the components of desirable social relationships in the way of expanding social relationships from a quantitative aspect and improve the level of relationships from a qualitative perspective. The findings in psychological, emotional and moral sections deal with topics such as: self-awareness, self-efficacy, self-control, resilience, and the golden rule as well as their role in the health of social interactions.

A detailed description of the heaven’s blessings and their emotional and spiritual dimension has been revealed in the Holy Qur'an. There is a difference of opinion among commentators on whether the pleasures of heaven are sensual or spiritual, so some believe that the inner meaning and interpretation of sensual blessings is intended. This article aims to use the quantitative content analysis method and closed coding to show that both blessings are emphasized. With a detailed and a quantitative analysis of the heaven’s blessings, separated by Meccan and Medinite surahs, it shows that in the passage from the Meccan and Medinite surahs, sensual blessings is reduced and spiritual blessings such as divine pleasure, divine love, divine mercy is strengthened. In addition, in Medinite surahs, there is no mention of blessings details, and there is no mention of food and drinks, and the exact position and attributes of nymph with physical attractions, but with pure marriages, emphasized on the blessings’ spiritual dimension of and purity of heavenly wives.

In addition to expressive miracle, the Holy Qur’an also has miracles in expression diversity and creativity. Until now, there have been discussions about some of the Qur'an expression methods, such as argumentative expression, story, etc.; but regarding implicit marginalizations and thought-provoking meanings, this valuable book has not been properly researched. Since the 3rd AH century, some commentators have discussed various features of such a language. Words such as "allusion", "antiphrasis", "vituperation" etc., are considered "art criticism" and used in commentary books. In the contemporary era, some articles or books have been published independently or by digression about this issue. This article aims to achieve a specific framework and definition by explaining and evaluating such language in the form of "critical and artistic literature" as a new phenomenon - from an external perspective - with a descriptive-analytical method. Issues such as: humor, satire, jokes, stories, narratives and critical shows should be integrated in the knowledge form. This view will solve many interpretive problems and show the Qur'an as a source for artistic critical inspirations, both in terms of content and structure.
