Each of the three monotheistic religions (Islam, Judaism, and Christianity) has their own scriptures, and all of these scriptures, from the time of Adam (A) to the Prophet (PBUH), have offered the same guidelines, namely the invitation to monotheism. Furthermore, these books have the same origin and share many similarities. For example, one of these significant similarities is the stories of the Prophets, and so commentators of the Holy Quran, in their interpretations, take advantage of the content of the Bible. Actually, identifying the commentators' approaches, in taking advantage of the Bible, helps us understand the commentators' stance toward the content of the Bible and its usage in their interpretation. Using the descriptive-analytical method, this article investigates the commentators' approaches towards the use of the Bible and concludes that commentators generally adopt four approaches in the use of the Bible: Maximum Proof, Minimum Proof, Negation, and Dual approaches. Each of them used the Bible differently, as some of them, criticize the content of the Bible and the others use it for explanatory purposes

The most important document claims distort the Koran, a collection of scattered dream that has been collected from The most important document proposed by those who claim that the Quran has been distorted is a collection of scattered narrations collected from various documents. The use of an accurate and comprehensive method on the part of the scribes is very important. He argued against the criticism of distortion in three stages: In the first stage, Ayatollah Khomeini examines the source of the narrations. He believes that many of these narrations lack credibility, and that many of them have been reported from unknown and suspicious sources. The second stage has to do with the investigation of the documents supporting the claims of distortion. At this stage, Ayatollah Khomeini criticizes these narrations using brief and explanatory methods. The third stage involves criticizing the content of the remaining accounts.

The present paper address the role of Quran linguistic attitudes in the creation of the trinity view: strong maximal, minimal, and maximal comprehensiveness in the Quran. This investigation explains how the selection of each of these ideas can result in a different structure of the comprehensiveness in the Quran. Finally, in evaluations between different linguistic attitudes such as symbolic, conventional, combinational, and intrinsic language، the writer reaches the conclusion that comprehensiveness of the Quran is based upon the idea that despite some controversy, the maximal approach has yielded a realistic and acceptable idea of the language of the Quran. The comprehensiveness of the Quran is best represented by a synthesis of intrinsic and combinational methods. The intrinsic way ensures the ultra-temporality of the comprehensive of the Quran, and the combination way ensures the generality thereof.

Translation of religious texts, including the Quran, the book that excels in oration, is very difficult. If the translator, in translating this book, faces the problem of realia, the translation will become more complex and hard. Before translating, the translator needs to know realia and how to deal with them, for making improper decisions in the translation will result in misunderstading and misconception since the Russian readers are not familiar with the Quran. In this article, first we intend to learn the linguistic aspects of realia and how to translate them. We will, then, analyze the Russian translation of twenty realia in Kuliev's translation of the Quran. We come to the conclusion that the translator has not been able to properly translate realia, and this has made an accurate understaidng of the Quran for Russian speakers elusive. Learning translation strategies of the realia and making proper decisions in translating realia can prevent misunderstanding and misconception about the Ayat of the Quran.

Knowledge of God and His attributes offered in the Quran revealed numerous approaches of Simile and purification to Muslims. Understanding and explaining it created earlier theological approaches to simile and purification. The simile and metaphor approach, known as the Ahl-Tashbih since the first century of Islam, has been associated with multiple variations and then Mqatl Ben Solomon and Mohammed Ben Kram, came to Ibn Taymiyyah to be representatives of the Hanbali in his day. Like the Ahl-Tashbih earlier, Ibn Taymiyya based the work on a literal interpretation of the Quran verses and accompanied this belief by a kind of avoidance of rationality. The hadith Citations of Ibn Taymiyya are also based on the Hadiths spread by only the Ahle Hadith. Accordingly, we can turn to this thought only if: We similarly avoid rationality and God’s transcendental attributes in the Quran; and second, we refer to Hadiths using his approach to get verification. Otherwise, if a person is Sunni, but does not respect the principles of Ibn Taymiyyah, he won’t be able to think like him and believe in what he did.

The promised issue and determining its place in the subject of Mahdism is a divine tradition which is stated in Islamic teachings. In this regard, the news and narrations related to Imam Ali (AS) have a special place. This research seeks to answer the following question: What is the necessity of Mahdism and its nature in the news related to Imam Ali (AS)? This is especially true because it seems that the Conduct of Imam Mahdi (AS) is a comprehensive and ideal example that Imam Ali (AS) aimed to realize. Therefore, there is a direct relationship between Mahdavi's world rule and Imam Ali (AS). The results of this research indicate that in the news of Imam Ali (as), Mahdism is one of the most important revelation teachings and learning about it is the duty of religious faith. According to this, Imam Mahdi (AS) is one of the sons of Imam Ali (AS) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) and as the Imam and the divine caliph, he has the status of "Welayat". Also, Mahdism, in all its dimensions, is directly related to the will of God and issues such as "birth", "absence" and "emergence" and "expectation" and so on, are related to God's knowledge and power. Imam Ali (as), by designing Mahdiism, considers the only way of approaching God and prosperity to be monotheistic thinking which entails " Welayat " as its terms and conditions. Therefore, all human beings are invited to follow the Imam Mahdi (AS), and it instructs everyone to deal with the allegations made by the enemies on the promised issue of Mahdiism.

“Sad An Sabil Allah” is one of the most frequent Quranic concepts that has been severely forbidden by the Quran. And understanding it can lead to a reconsideration of many of the religious concepts of Islam. In spite of its importance in Islam, it has not been considered thoroughly enough. “Sad An Sabil Allah” means obstructing the path of God, and it involves language, deeds etc. that prevent people from following the path of God. An instance offered by the Quran is oppression, and those who do this are deemed to be oppressors. Obstruction of the path of God has consequences for the person who does this both in this world and in the other (such as Divine punishment and torture).
