Abstract: (297 Views) |
| The Verse 70 of Surah Isra is one of the verses that Allameh Tabatabai has paid attention to in terms of cosmology. Considering that the starting point for the discussions of cosmology is mainly philosophy and the Qur'an and Revelation also have special bases in this field, regarding their interpretive logic in the interpretation of the verse of human dignity, there are questions related to what is the basis of their interpretation of this verse and the extent of its conformity with The logic governing the Qur'an and the exegeticness or hermeneuticness of the material presented by him are discussed. Allameh believes that this verse was revealed to compare the beings of the material world, to rank them and finally, to prove the superiority of man over other material beings due to the possession of reason. He considered reason to be the fundamental part of man's essence and nature, distinguishing him from other beings, and he believes that this characteristic causes man to conquer his surroundings and to be the creator of words and art. The present research has tried to express considerations and reflections on his opinions with the method of content analysis, which are generally taken from his point of view while interpreting other verses. This article claims that the origin of the criticisms and considerations is the dominance of peripatetic philosophical opinions on misleading interpretations regarding the topics of cosmolology and the acceptance of these opinions regarding the powers and essences of human souls and their ranking in Allameh's interpretation of the verse of human dignity. |
