The claim of conflict in the verses of the knowledge of the unseen in Quran is one of those made by Brasher – the Jewish orientalist. He believes that the verses which consider the knowledge of the unseen to be only specific to God are in conflict with those verses referring apparently to the Prophet (p.b.u.h) and some of the divine selected people's awareness of the unseen. Classifying the verses in the field indicates that God's knowledge of the unseen is 'essential and independent' and appropriate to His Wisdom and Providence, He grants the knowledge of the unseen to some of His apostles through revelation so that they could be able to prove God's prophesy and make the description of religion easier. According to God's decree, prophet is the agent to teach his successor and this knowledge is transferred heart by heart to the divine successors along with other methods of Imam's acquiring knowledge such as inspiration and narration with angels, without any claim of independence on having knowledge of the unseen by any of them.
