The issue of the exterior and interior of the Holy Qur'an has been and still is the subject of Muslim opinion from the time of the Holy Prophet until now. Considering this point, many hadiths have been issued from the words of the Holy Prophet, Hazrat Amir, and other Imams (AS) in this regard. These hadiths are frequent or at least Mostafīz (diffused), such as the noble prophetic hadith «ان للقرآن ظهراً و بطنا و لبطنه بطنا الی سبعة أبطن» "Ennal Qur'an Zahran, wa Batna, wa Labatna Batna, ela Sabah Abtn" which was narrated through al-Furiqin. Maulavi spoke in detail about this hadith in Masnavi, which we have quoted in the text of the article. He said at the beginning of his speech: Know the words of the Qur'an, which are external/below the external, the interior is just Cairo. Many verses also express the exterior and interior of the Holy Quran. As in the verse "Indeed is the Holy Qur'an, in a hidden book, it is not touched except by the pure" (Waqeeh/77-79). In this article, firstly by referring to the verses and narrations and the sayings of famous Islamic mystics and philosophers, the interior and different levels of the Holy Quran have been proven, then the quality of the relationship between the exterior and interior of the Quran has been discussed.

Intercession, referring to mediating for the forgiveness of the sins of sinners, has been continuously the focus of attention for various Islamic sects. If intercession, as understood by the masses, indeed exists in the divine system, it would be in contradiction with divine justice, and it would violate of divine law. On the other hand, Allah the Most Merciful in the Holy Quran in verses 48 and 123 of al-Baqqārah rejects intercession, zar and zur as existing in the divine system, but in many verses, especially verse 44 of surah al-Zumar, it is clear that intercession exists and is exclusive to Allah and His agents In this essay, the author first explains the concept of intercession from the perspective of verses and narratives, and then examines the views of Allamah Tabataba’i and a number of the Islamic thinkers through an analytical method.

Knowing human nature is one of the vital subjects of the Holy Quran, tradition, mysticism, and Islamic philosophy. By this knowledge, entity and essence of human will be distinguished from other animals. The writer of this assay has tried to explain the nature and quality of human destiny from Allameh tabatabai’s point of view. Allameh in his various books- especially in Commentary of Almizan holds very profound ideas about the nature and destiny of human being. In short, from his point of view, knowing human nature get us to know human destiny because human is both an infinite creature and religious existent. It is clear that this kind of entity has a free will to choose his destiny. In other words, freewill and religion orientation of human are necessary for his creation and nature, and his perfection lies in observing religion.
