Abstract: (388 Views) |
Since in the interpretation of Surah dhuha and its seventh verse, Shia and Sunni commentators have focused on understanding the meaning of the word dhallan/wandering, this article has analyzed its interpretative aspects in a descriptive-analytical way. Based on this research, it is not accepted to interpret the word as the Prophet`s lack of commercial knowledge or his being lost in childhood due to the lack of harmony with the structural system of the Surah and to opposition to the theological foundations regarding the infallibility of the Prophet before his mission. The exegetic view that the Prophet`s state of not being divinely supported before his mission and being divinely supported after it, although it conveys a kind of gratitude from God, but it is necessarily concluded that he had been a polytheist before mission, the fact not accepted by most of the fariqin commentators. The exegetic views of the Prophet`s (s) state ob being distant from the misguided people of his time and the Prophet's lack of greed towards prophethood are also not acceptable due to their incompatibility with the literal meaning of dhall. Therefore, the lack of recognition of the Prophet's dignity before the mission and then guiding the people after the mission with the divine statement about the greatness of his dignity is the least problematic aspect of the interpretation of the discussed verse.
