The concept of swearing in the Holy Quran is one of the important issues that should be discussed using the knowledge of cognitive semantics. In this research, conceptual metaphor theory and conceptual schemas based on volume category are used. The aim of the current research is to have a deep and comprehensive understanding of the concept of swearing in the Holy Quran according to a scientific method in interpretive studies of the Quran's conceptualization model. This article, which is the result of a research, is practical in terms of its purpose and has a descriptive-inferential nature in terms of the level of analysis, and relies on the library method in terms of method. First, the use of oaths in the Holy Quran is extracted and then it is analyzed based on the volume category. The result of the research was that in conceptualizing the oaths of the Holy Qur'an, the book of the Qur'an and the intellect are a symbol for spiritual guidance in the darkness of ignorance and misguidance so that man does not lose. The sun and the stars of the sky in the darkness of the sea and the land are sensory guides for man to go towards the truth. And if man hides the truth despite all the guiding symbols; God will fill hell with such people. IntroductionThe Holy Quran is a book of guidance and conceptualization for humans; considering that the Holy Qur'an is for man and based on his perceptual system, and the concept of guidance is an abstract concept, in order to conceptualize guidance, it is necessary to examine other concepts that are tangible and imaginable and a basis for the perception of other concepts and can be investigated in the new knowledge of semantics.Among the new knowledge, which does a better conceptualization is cognitive semantics. Calling this new semantics, which is the result of the efforts of the old semantics and its continuation, in the service of the Qur'an and religious thinking, leads to achievements that are useful in the analysis of this heavenly book and one of its most frequent interpretations, which is oaths. And it can fix and correct the defects of the old semantics and provide new solutions.Cognitive semantics examines the relationship between the conceptual system and the semantic structure encoded in language. In the analysis of Quranic interpretations, cognitive semantics is used a lot; the cognitive semantics of the Quran is, in a sense, an attempt to reach the cognitive map of this heavenly book. The semantics of the Qur'an are more fundamental than the interpretations; in semantics, the general framework governing the meanings of the verses is systematically examined. Literature ReviewStudies have been conducted on "Qur'an oaths" and "Cognitive Semantics"; the most important ones are mentioned in this section:In a research titled "Research on the Oaths of the Holy Quran" by Mina Kamai in 1377, an attempt has been made to prove and emphasize the three principles of Monotheism, Prophethood, and Resurrection, and the relationship between "divided by and divided by" has been explained.Regarding semantics, in the same year, Shirinpour Ebrahim and colleagues presented the concept of "insight" in the language of the Qur'an in the framework of cognitive semantics in Volume 2 of the Journal of Linguistic Research. Also, in an article entitled "Historical and Cultural Debates and Semantics of Holy Qur'an Oaths", Ahmad Paktachi researched in the Journal of Historical Studies of the Qur'an and Hadith No. 60 in 2015. In this article, the meaning of swearing is investigated with a combination of historical semantics and cultural semantics methods.In a research in 2015 entitled "Cognitive Analysis of the Conceptual Structure of the Qur'an in the Framework of Foucault's Theory of Mental Spaces", Naghizadeh studies the conceptual structure of the Holy Qur'an within the scope of the fifteen-second parts, in order to evaluate its effectiveness in explaining the conceptual structures of the Qur'an; Fatemeh Abadi also wrote an article entitled "Conceptualization of Satan's/Iblis' influence in the system of guidance/misguidance based on the category of movement in the Holy Quran: a cognitive approach" in 1400.In the aforementioned works, the historical debates of the word oath or the wisdom of oaths have been briefly examined, and no independent research has been conducted on the semantics and imaginary designs of oaths. Methodology This writing, which is the result of research, is practical in terms of its purpose, has a descriptive-inferential nature in terms of the level of analysis, and relies on the library method in terms of method. Collecting the desired data is through the receipt. ConclusionIn this research, an attempt was made to conceptualize the effect of the oaths of the Qur'an in the guidance system based on the volume category, in the verses of the Holy Qur'an including 167 events in 142 verses of 54 surahs. The result of the research was that:1- The volumetric category is one of the types of conceptual schemas that are the most important foundations of the conceptual structure of the oaths of the Qur'an.2- According to the frequency of schemas, 33% of the oath verses have a volume schema, of which 10 of them are used with the letter "fi" which indicates a volume schema.3- The letter "Fi" in the words "Raqqi Manshur, Dhi Hajr wa Qol, Sakrathem wa Aymankom" and the names "Al-Shams, Al-Mashareq, Al-Maghreeb, Al-Samaa, Mawaqee Al-Njoom and Al-Balad Al-Ama" "min" and also the verbs "tahaha, liyakhrujun", "Tajalli" and "Seji" indicate the volumetric schema.4- According to the many examples that God has used imaginary schemas in the oaths of the Holy Quran, in fact, he has made the human mind embody things that he has not seen with his eyes, and with concrete and everyday examples, he helps to better understand the verses for man.5- The use of imaginary designs is a step to advance and methodize the interpretation of the verses of the Holy Qur'an and has facilitated the conceptualization of the words of the Qur'an.6- There is a connection and proportionality between the oaths of the Qur'an and its answer, which is more visible in some verses with volumetric patterns.7- Volumetric schemas of "Al-Shams", "Al-Mashareq and Al-Maghrib", "Al-Samma", "Mawaqi'e Al-Nujjoom" and "This Country" are nominal symbols that depict the celebration of holy and honorable things.8- In conceptualizing the oaths of the Holy Qur'an, the book of the Qur'an and the intellect are a symbol for spiritual guidance in the darkness of ignorance and misguidance so that man does not lose. But in the conceptualization based on the volumetric schemas of the oaths of the Holy Quran, the sun and the stars of the sky in the darkness and the sea and the land are sensory guides so that man can be guided towards the truth and the symbols of guidance on earth and the place of revelation. Man should go to the right. And if a person does not go towards the light despite all the tangible and visible guiding symbols, darkness covers such people and covers them with the rust of ignorance and stupidity, false darkness.9- In explaining the relationship between the volume schemas of the verses and the system of guidance, based on what was mentioned in this research, there is a comprehensive picture of the effect of swearing in the guidance of humans affected by the sensory system and as a result, perceptible to the audience of the Qur'an. Perhaps it has been less noticed by the commentators. In all cases related to oaths, as an effective factor in guiding people, visual schemas remove doubt from God's true word and make it more manageable. And it causes people who are less talented and capable to accept the right to be guided to the light of guidance.

The purpose of this research is explaining behavioral weaknesses of humans and its modification methods based on the Holy Quran. This research is in the category of qualitative research in terms of approach, and an analytical method using thematic analysis method has been used. The statistical community of the research includes The Holy Quran and the sample of the research are the verses related to behavioral weakness. In the following, the primary data was coded and classified based on the basic, organizing and comprehensive themes in the three axes of foundations, principles and methods. The findings of the research showed that the behavioral weaknesses in the individual field include neglect in life, being ungrateful, pride and arrogance, being hasty, being greedy, lack of energy and despair in the face of difficulties, and in the social field, the basics of mocking, fault-finding, and resentment. It is hypocrisy and hypocrisy. Corresponding to the foundations, in the field of method, remembrance of truth, gratitude, vigilance and wisdom, patience, contentment, raising the threshold of tolerance in the face of difficulties, forgiveness, and guidance, patience, influencing the heart, silence and truthfulness were identified. The function of the obtained themes is to speed up the correction and remove deviations from human existence in such a way that the obtained principles and methods serve to correct the aforementioned weaknesses. IntroductionMan has such a truth that knowledge of him is knowledge of the truth. In the discussion of the human caliphate, man is a transformed and changing creature with a wonderful transformation. True education is the realization of this transformation and the journey towards his true status; of course, in this journey, it is necessary to pay attention to the realities of human beings so that the structure and organization of education do not become unrealistic. God has created forces, instincts, and attributes in human beings that are considered as a potential means of his evolution and development, happiness and perfection, abilities that help humans in the direction of it to achieve growth and excellence, but when these attributes are not properly recognized or guided and are placed in a deviant path, it will be the source of evil and corruption. The fact that there is both a tendency towards negative things and a tendency towards positive things in humans is the reason that man can evolve. Evolution is meaningful when a person also has a tendency towards negative things and despite the tendency from within to ugly things, refrains from acting on them. Considering the importance and necessity of recognizing and correcting people's behavioral weaknesses, the present research is trying to explain human behavioral weaknesses and their correction methods from the perspective of the Holy Quran.Research Question(s)Therefore, in this regard, using the method of thematic analysis, what are the human behavioral weaknesses according to the Holy Qur'an? And according to these principles, what training methods can be extracted to correct them based on the Holy Quran? The answer is given. Literature ReviewIn the field of human behavioral weaknesses, researches have been carried out as follows: Hosseinkhani (1401) in his dissertation titled "The Role of Human Social Behaviors in Worldly Blessings from the Viewpoint of the Qur'an" into several categories of human social behaviors in terms of economic, political, it deals with education and culture, which causes the decline of worldly blessings. Socio-economic behaviors such as stealing and taking, extravagance, underselling, and miserliness, and social and political behaviors such as: choosing and agreeing with incompetent leaders and officials, breaking contracts, and being friends with infidels. And the hypocrites, denying the divine angels and disobeying them and avoiding fighting in the way of God and educational social behaviors such as turning away from worship, blasphemy, blasphemous and polytheistic behaviors, engaging in worldly pleasures and drowning in pleasures and lusts and social behaviors. Culture such as: discord, sinning, oppression, severing the relationship, and acting based on wrong customs and traditions. Haqiqi (1400) in his dissertation entitled "Analysis of the ways of human interaction with himself from the perspective of the Holy Quran" to the things that cause harm bringing man to himself, as "verse 9 of Surah Al-A'raf" points out. Mohseni (1379) in his dissertation "Human Evolution from the Sublime World to the Resurrection Based on the Qur'an and Sunnah" in the third part, pointed out the obstacles to human growth and perfection such as selfishness, love of the world, arrogance, following suspicions. Mir Jalili (1376) in the thesis titled "Praise and Criticism of Man in the Qur'an and Nahj al-Balagha" he tried to explain the positive and negative dimensions of man in the Qur'an. In most academic researches, according to the view of Islamic thinkers about man, which is based on less benefit direct collection from first-hand sources has been done with the aim of extracting educational methods. Researches that have been done with the aim of knowing the human being based on the Holy Qur'an have only dealt with a part of the human being and have a comprehensive and complete look at the human being and his behavioral weaknesses. In order to extract educational principles and methods for correction, it has been neglected. MethodologyThe current research is qualitative and a thematic analysis method is used.The target statistical community in this research is Qur’anic verses related to human behavioral weakness. In order to ensure the correct interpretation of the verses, reliable interpretations such as Al-Mizan, Sample, Noor and Atib Al-Bayan were used in the interpretation of the Quran, and for this purpose, the following steps were taken:First, the behavioral weakness in all the verses of the Holy Quran and the aforementioned interpretations were initially examined and recorded. After that, various weaknesses in this field were extracted and coded in both individual and social domains. Then, the basic topics have been obtained according to the primary coding. In order to achieve the organizing themes, the basic themes were re-examined and in the back and forth between them, the organizing themes were determined. Under the basics, those that had general principles, under the principles and those that pointed to various ways of correcting these weaknesses, under the methods were placed in more general and inclusive themes. To validate the research, all the content was sent to expert faculty members, and their suggested revisions and corrections were applied and sent again for re-examination and finally approved by the aforementioned professors. Another important factor in this field is the homogeneity of the investigation obtained from the analysis of the verses and interpretation points of different surahs. In addition to the mentioned cases, analytical comparisons and references to raw data were done through back-and-forth evaluations so that the construction of the theory is done correctly. In each of the above steps, despite extracting the components from the verses, in order to increase the accuracy of the work, the text and interpretation of the verses of the Qur'an have been referred to again. ConclusionDespite the capacities that God has given him, man has weaknesses in his behavior, which requires the use of educational methods. Based on these weaknesses, recognize these shortcomings and try to fix and correct them. The purpose of this research was to explain the human behavioral weaknesses and the methods of their correction based on the Holy Quran, with the research done in the available sources, the human behavioral weaknesses in two individual parts (negligence in life, ingratitude, pride and arrogance, Being hasty, being greedy, being impatient and despairing in the face of difficulties) and social (mockery, fault-finding, malice and hypocrisy) along with educational methods (remembering the truth, gratitude, vigilance, patience, contentment, raising the threshold of tolerance in the face of difficulties, forgiveness, acceptability, patience, emotional impact, wise silence and truthfulness) were investigated. The most important step in this case is to recognize the weakness and the will to try to fix it. According to the severity and weakness and degree of behavioral weakness, one or more educational methods may be recommended and implemented to eliminate the behavioral deficiency.

The concept of "Ommy" is one of the challenging issues in the field of religious studies, both in the works of orientalists and in the studies of Islamic scholars and commentators, the focus has been on the issue. One of the reasons for the challenge of Ommy understanding,is the Qur'anic application of this word is in the description of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), that has led to some doubts by the disbelievers, and as a result, different defenses have been made by the Muslims. Among the opinions of Islamic thinkers the Quran commentators have a special position and they said multiple discussions in this subject. In this research, is tried by descriptive-analytical method, It point to criticism and evaluation votes commentators of concept of Ommy. According to the texts findings of this research, factors such as: attitude lexical to idiom Ommy, negligence of evidence available in also neglect to application Ommy in texts Jurisprudence has led to that will spread during the time the meaning of "illiteracy" for Ommy's words pay attention to above evidence don't confirm correctness of current meaning. Based on enough evidence to understand the word Ommy in religious texts, this word is originally it's a idiomatic by the Jews, they was used to call non from the book and later on Ommy was used to everybody ,they be unfamiliar content of holy book, whether they are from the book or non from the book.

As one of the tools for understanding the themes of the Qur'an, the knowledge of Asbāb al-Nuzūl (Occasions or circumstances of revelation) has had an important impact on the development of writing commentary books. One of the important issues that seem necessary in the critical rereading of contemporary approaches to Asbāb al-Nuzūl is to outline how commentators care about the cultural heritage of the knowledge of interpretation. Commentary on "Rooz al-Jinnan and Ruh al-Jinnan" by Abul Fattuh Razi is one of the Shia commentary books of the sixth century with a theological-ijtihad approach. The current descriptive-analytical research of Baroosh has dealt with the role of narrations that caused Asbāb al-Nuzūl and the extent of the influence of the cultural atmosphere of that period in understanding the verses of the Holy Quran. The findings of the research indicate that the special care and attention of Abul Fattouh Razi to the narrations is the cause of Asbāb al-Nuzūl in such a way that in his opinion, such narrations have a close connection with the culture of the age of revelation. In order to better understand the verses of the Holy Qur'an, he has relied on many narrations and used them to evaluate the content or text, this is to the extent that some narrations have considered the cause of revelation to be ineffective in understanding the verses, and he has adopted criteria for criticizing the narrations. The present article describes the functions and critical criteria of Abolfatuh Razi and the quantitative level of each of these applications.

The social relations of Muslim societies with other Muslim or non-Muslim nations are among the topics addressed in the verses of the Holy Qur'an. The need to demarcate issues related to Muslim relations in Islam and divine verses has been emphasized. Sometimes the boundaries are geographical and terrestrial, sometimes in social, political, cultural, and religious issues. Considering the necessity of religious and political demarcation of the Islamic Republic with the enemies and the necessity of obedience to the Holy Quran, the present study has examined the Quranic propositions in demarcating the provincial relationship using the content analysis process and MAXQDA software. An examination of the data shows that there are four approaches in the divine verses on this subject: condemnation, prohibition, denial, and proof. God forbids the believers from guardianship with infidels, Jews, and Christians, ridiculers and players of religion, people who are angry with God and their enemies and God. The basic themes of denial include two groups of infidels and non-immigrant believers. The theme of proof can also be divided into two sub-themes of the right front and the false front. The right front includes the basic themes of God, the Prophet (PBUH), believers, and angels, and the false front includes the basic themes of Satan, infidels, Jews, Christians, and oppressors.

The means of hearing is the divine blessings on man, which can be guided through the interpretations of the human Qur'an. Hearing is the first active sense in human existence before and after birth. Hearing aids are one of the main necessities of the body and many perceptions are done through this. This article examines the tools of "hearing" in human education with a descriptive-analytical approach. The purpose of writing this is to explain the position of hearing and the need to pay more attention to it in advancing educational goals and the position of this vital and effective tool in human development. What is the place of hearing as an educational tool in the Qur'an? What is the role of hearing in human education? Due to the efficiency of listening, inducing educational goals in this way can help cultural officials and educational educators achieve their goals. Therefore, if we want to institutionalize an educational issue among the target group, paying attention to the blessings and means of listening more than other senses can bring us closer to the goals and we can do better in institutionalizing norms. Another important result is that accuracy in the content of the word and repetition of the content is effective in educational development and acceptance of the right by the audience. Hearing is the first stage of acquiring knowledge and then understanding and reasoning take place. This word is used in the Qur'an in the four meanings of the ear, the act of hearing, understanding, and accepting and obeying the truth.

The present research was done with the aim of explaining the philosophical foundations of the patient person in the Holy Quran and ways to strengthen patience in elementary teachers. The method of the current research was qualitative and content analysis and Franken's analytical model. The current research community consists of all the verses of the Holy Qur'an that deal with patience and the patient person, which were studied and analyzed by purposeful sampling and referring to its interpretations (Tafsir Javadi Amoli). In order to collect information, an information collection form was used. The results of conventional content analysis and inferential analysis of the current research showed that the philosophical foundations of the patient man in the foundations of ontology, epistemology, anthropology, values and aesthetics have shown examples in the verses. The strategies to strengthen patient people in primary teachers include asking for help from God and worshiping the secret of need, commanding patience and endurance, modeling and following models of patience, and reminding of the effects and benefits of patience, which can be done by training and empowering teachers in these strategies led to strengthening their patience.

One of the most important motor motivations in human beings is competition, which is rooted in such things as feeling short, and jealous, getting rid of imperfections, and achieving perfection. The realization of competition in society and among individuals leads to the formation of positive and negative competition, which is traditionally referred to as keeping up with the Joneses, which can be considered in both positive and negative fields. Therefore, the author has studied the subject of keeping up with the Joneses and all the positive and negative aspects according to verse 108 of Surah Yusuf and verse 179 of Surah A'raf by descriptive-analytical method and library type. By analyzing the Quranic verses and the documents of the narrations of the two sects regarding these verses, we reached the following findings. Neglect is the main factor of competition and the negative aspect of keeping up with the Joneses and insight is the main factor of competition and the positive one.

This article examines the effect of interpretability of the Holy Quran on the understanding of religious knowledge and its origin. In this regard, by analytical method and referring to verses and hadiths, he has examined the characteristics of the Holy Quran in terms of interpretability. The results of this research reveal two main origins for the interpretability of the Holy Qur'an, i.e. methodological ambiguity and having different semantic dimensions. The first origin includes special methods such as limiting the expression of generalities and the firm and similar method and similar methods through which the Holy Quran spoke to the people due to specific purposes. This has caused the fields of interpretation to be provided, selfish or ignorant people are exposed to misunderstandings. From this point of view, the necessary warning has been given in the religious texts, the correct way of interpretation has been stated. The second origin is the different semantic dimensions of the Holy Quran, which include two types of width and length. This provides the basis for correct understandings of latitude and longitude. Parallel understandings are either the result of different approaches to the Holy Qur'an, which have created different mystical, social, literary, etc. interpretations, or they are formed through adaptation and adaptation to new concepts and examples. But longitudinal understandings are formed in two dimensions of external and internal meanings. According to traditions, the level of apparent meanings has different dimensions, which starts from the understanding of phrases and continues to the understanding of interpretation and allusion, which those who know about the way of interpretation and its secrets, can infer them. The levels of inner meanings that cannot be extracted from the appearance of the word are endless and are revealed to the saints and divine prophets through mystical interpretation and science.

The title of Great Jihad is mentioned in verse 52 of Surah Al-Furqan. Due to the Meccan nature of Surah Al-Furqan and the context of the verses of Makki, the Great Jihad is a civilian strategy to confront enemies and protect Islamic society from any invasion and civilian domination. Extracting the foundations and principles of the Great Jihad from the Holy Quran is something that has not been properly studied so far, and the present article tries to eliminate this shortcoming. In this research, the basis is the foundations of the legitimacy of the great jihad on which this type of jihad is built. What is meant by the principle is the framework for the implementation of the Great Jihad. Civilian struggle by the Qur'an, confrontation with doubts, divine test for recognizing the Mujahideen, and fighting against falsehood are the special principles of the Great Jihad and the belief in the existence of an intellectual enemy, soft struggle against the enemies, and having a jihadist spirit are its specific principles. These findings, extracted from the teachings of the Holy Qur'an, indicate that the Holy Qur'an, with its approach of disobedience to infidels, should be the tool of great jihad. The Mujahideen in the civilian arena must take steps to fight the enemies, extract, and formulate the ideas needed by the Islamic society. The method used in this research to achieve the desired is the method of intra-Quranic thematic research and comparative study between interpretations.

The intention to give moral lessons and to avoid outlining, and mentioning actual instances instead, in order to explain the divine realities are among the current methods of the Quran. The Holy Quran, as the book of guidance for man and for delivering him from the moral decadence, introduces religious training, in line with religious insight, as the factor for delivering man from the darkness of ignorance. The Quran introduces not only the accounts of the former generations, but also all that happens around man as a means of taking moral lessons since the world is the manifestation of the magnificence of Allah. It serves to make those who own the inner sight distinguish between the eternal bliss and the everlasting woe and choose the path of truth and that of the devoted friends of Allah. The present article is a research which asserts the usefulness of giving moral lessons and its basic role in gaining religious insight and regarding it out the realm of theoretical level and introducing it as a practical method for the religious missionaries. The research, then, explains the Quran's method of giving moral lessons in order to assert the practicability of the method in attaining an effective propagation.

Intertextuality theory is an approach that examines the relationships between texts and how they relate to each other. In this approach, the various meanings of the texts are revealed in the space of other texts. The application of this theory in religious studies is to explain the deep connection between the Qur'an and Etrat. In this research, the forty-fourth prayer of Al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya with the subject of the beginning of Ramadan is examined and explained on two levels of the outer and inner layers of the text. This research seeks to discover a new semantic horizon of this prayer by a descriptive-analytical method. Intertextual relations have been pursued with three types: structural, thematic, and lexical. The results of the research show that during this prayer, he used various Qur'anic structures in matters such as the revelation of the Qur'an in Ramadan and Laylat al-Qadr, the request to join the righteous servants, praise be to God for the blessing of guidance, and so on. In such a way that the Qur'an is manifested in their requests.

Discursive stylistics analyzes literary texts from a discursive point of view and provides a new subject in cognitive studies by stepping in beyond the scope and entering into the field of discourse analysis. The most important components of discursive stylistics are discourse analysis based on the positional context of sentences, speech actions, and syntactic styles. On the other hand, irrelevant structures, often by elimination of an agent or actor, attempt to conceive of a concept beyond the apparent meaning of the sentence, and analysis of such structures by discourse analysis methods are of great importance in language. This paper attempts to do so, by using the descriptive-analytical method and relying on Michel Foucault's view Analyzes the non-realized structures of the thirteenth part through the discursive stylistics’ theory and, finally, shows that spoken action in the unknown structures of the juz thirty of Qur'an is more in line with the type of syntax and syntactic style of the sentences. And the Holy Qur'an, when speaking about horrific events, uses irrelevant sentences, falsifies sentences in irrelevant sentences, and emphasizes the event itself. In many cases, the purpose of emphasizing events in falsified sentences is to make people think and reflect on the event, and sometimes to awareness of the unaware people.

One of the basic issues about thought is its place in human existence, in other words, finding the relationship between thought and human existence. In Islamic sources and teachings, especially Shiites, the intellect is considered as the most popular divine creature and esoteric messenger, and the basis of human personality and its distinction with other creatures is considered, and on the other hand, the most colorful role of the Holy Qur'an in shaping The human intellectual system is the presentation of the subject; That is, the Qur'an has introduced the most basic areas in which thinking and exploring are considered to illuminate the path of guidance and change in human individual and social life, areas such as the world of creation, divine laws, and historical developments. This article, in a descriptive-analytical method, while explaining the role and position of thought in the structure of existence from the perspective of the Holy Qur'an, analyzes the most important and fundamental areas and topics proposed by this revelation source for human thought and the advancement of human society.

One of the most important semantic areas of the Holy Qur'an and the second principle of the principles of Islam is "prophecy". This field is manifested in the article "Resl" and the most widely used word in this field, "Rasool", and plays an important role in the Qur'an and tradition. Therefore, in the present research, which has been done by the descriptive-analytical method, first, the various meanings of "Rasul" material were analyzed and studied. Then, to better explain the meaning of the word "Nabi" according to the principle of succession in semantics, its synonymous word "prophet" was examined and then by referring to the interpretations and divisions of the commentators and presenting a frequent table of God's remembrance of the first prophets with the words Rasul and Nabi, the privileged position of the word "Rasul" in the Holy Qur'an was explained and the functional differences between the two words became clear. Based on the findings of this study and by examining the historical semantics of the word "Rasul" in the Jewish and Christian scriptures and the study of Syriac, Hebrew, and Greek languages, it became clear that this word was sent in the ancient languages and divine religions before Islam with the same meaning. And “the divine messenger” has been used, which indicates the deep root of this word in the history and divine texts and its high position in the field of religion.

The Holy Qur'an, as the most reliable source of inference in jurisprudence and Islamic law, is the word of Allah Almighty and, according to the great beliefs of the Muslims, this book of the celestial has not been translated into the human mind without any meaning. Hence, one word of the Holy Quran is the medium in transmitting the message from the messenger (God) to the receiver's message (man). Therefore, the exact understanding of the words of this Bible, which is possible by the method of semantics and the formation of a semantic network and the search for synonymous, contradictory, and related words, is essential and inevitable. The author of this paper believes that, if this method is to be studied by the term "peace", it would give the license a two-way legal action (primary peace), which would bring about many civil interactions among the people. Today, in our law, "primitive peace" or "primitive peace" can serve as a rationale for this semantic accuracy, enhance the human freedom of action, and develop and strengthen the legal relationships of individuals. This paper, based on the analytical and semantic method, pursues the above objective by studying the library of works of lexicons, commentators, and jurisprudents.

Stylistics as a branch of modern linguistics always strives to examine the text in terms of aesthetics, regardless of history, society and the life of its author, which extratextual matters. Studying the Surahs of the Quran from this point of view indicates that the Quran is a technical, precise, timeless and super-human text and has a unique and consistent structure. The framework of stylistics includes a review of phonology, vocabulary, sequences, definite or indefinite structures, singular and plural words, repetition, nominal or verbal sentences, and types of questions and so on. The present study examines the aesthetic and stylistic aspects of the Surah Al-Qamar through a descriptive-analytical method, while taking into account the unique context of the Surah itself. The result of the study revealed that, given the context of the Surah, words, sentences, and letters have been used artistically in a unique sequence and position. The words serve the meaning perfectly, and the meaning has affected the choice of words, in a way that it would not be possible to modify, move, or make a suggestion in order to alter and transform the text.

Cohesion is among elements which are specific to the Holy Quran, with scholars having attached considerable importance to it and extracted its different kinds from the Quran. Inspired by it, Abul Ala Al-Maʿarri has used two kinds of cohesion in Al-Fuṣul wa Al-ghayat. Therefore, the kind of cohesion seen in his book is not an innovation, but a pure imitation of the Quran. This article attempts to examine these two kinds of cohesion in Maʿarri's works and then show their differences with ones in the Holy Quran. The first cohesion is related to the accordance between methods of reporting concerning the names of God and its previous sentences, where, contrary to the Quran, all names of God are based on the meters of fo'oul and fa'eel. Maʿarri's wordplays seem to be what has led him to use names for God in a different way used in the Quran. And the second cohesion is to begin a sentence with a topic with which the previous sentence has ended. Thus, there is an accordance between the beginning of a sentence and the ending of the previous sentence in Maʿarri's works. In the Quran, likewise, a surah continues with a topic with which the previous surah has ended.

Image schema is one of the cognitive mechanism in the field of cognitive semantics that has a conceptual framework and an underlying metaphorical substruction. This cognitive mechanism decodes new meanings and increases the content of the principal purpose of the text. In the Quran, understanding the concepts of values and anti-values of ethics training have been modeled in the forms of volume, motion and force image schemata. The present article aims to analyze the conceptualiztion of the ethics training ayahs with the image schemata mechanism based on a descriptive-analytical method in to present a comprehensive picture of a perfect human and his indicators. The most important approaches in this article is the expression of the originality of interpretation in the Quran and highlighting the secret linguistics meanings the ethics training ayahs. It must be mentioned that the two demertis of “stinginess” and “imputation” have been depicted in the form of the two volume-force schemata of “chain” and “heavy weight” which invoke unpleasant scenes. The downward motion-directional schema of a “quenched fire” has been used for the merit of “supressing anger” to invite humans to overcome it as the conceptualiztion of anger in an upward direction would lead to unfortunate physical-mental consequenses.

The Quran is undoubtedly a holy book that has been revealed to lead mankind and to present the proper way of living and attainting perfection. Furthermore, it this book which enjoys the most eloquent and subtle styles of expression. It is clear that examining these methods and styles would lead to a better understanding of the ayahs of the Quran. One such method that which has been widely used in the Quran is that of metaphor. The translators of the Quran must strive to appropriately render these metaphors through an adequate awareness of the concept of metaphors and by referring to the comments of rhetoric scholars and interpreters and researchers of the Quran, as well as employing suitable translation methods. The present study was designed to review the methods for translating metaphors in some of the most famous contemporary Persian translations of the Quran: Makarem Shirazi, Meshkini, Garmaroudi, Fooladvand, Moezzi, Safarzadeh, Ghomsheei, Ansariyan, Sadeghi Tehrani, and Khoramshahi. The study critiques and evaluates each translation and presents the most prominent method of translation with regards to metaphors after mentioning the strengths and weaknesses of each translation.

Translation is a reconstruction of a word in another language in a way that all the meanings and purposes of speakers are conveyed in the target language. Therefore, a translated text is a full-scale mirror of its original text. The most important issue in translation is following the principle that a translator should take into consideration while translating. This should be done in a way that a translated text is equal to its original text. In translation, paying attention to a variety of semantic features of a word is necessary. However, practically, in some cases such attention might not be possible. Nevertheless, we should do our best to find the closest and most precise equivalences. The purpose of this study is to find out whether the translators of the Quran have paid attention to the components and semantic features of the Quranic words or not, and have they been able to reflect such attention or not. Therefore, in this study the translations of some of the translators, based on the dictionaries and interpreting books, have been explored. The analysis of the translations based on the seven words of the Holy Quran suggests that the translators have not paid the due attention to finding exact equivalences as well as the semantic features of the source language. Additionally, most of the translators have overlooked the semantic layers and classes hidden in the Quranic words.

The holy prayer of Makarem Al-Akhlaq, the twentieth prayer of the book Sahifeh Sajjadiyeh, the memorial of Imam Sajjad, is the most ancient and authentic prayer of shias. Deficiencies which are in the evidence of this prayer have raised some questions about the accuracy of its assignment to Sayyed Al-Sajedin(AS); there are, however, various ways in reply to the doubts. In this research, after putting Makarem Al- Akhlaqnext next to Holy Quran, we tried to examine all types of intertextual relations between these two valuable books, by drawing on a descriptive-analytic approach, and to distinguish the amount and range of this influence. In so doing, we tried to take this way as an indication for accuracy of assignment of this sacred prayer. To this end, this question put forward “how is the role of Quran’s verses as an absent text in Makarem Al- Akhlaq prayer as a present text and how is the type of the most frequent type of the intertextual relation between these two texts”. To this end, first the nature of the intertextual relations and different types of them were examined as the theoretical state of the research and then various types of Quranic Intertextual relations were examined including structural Intertextual (accommodating and unaccommodating) and lexical and thematic (conceptual) in Makarem Al-Akhlaq. The results indicate that in this prayer the structural intertextual relations have received the most impression of Quran, and the most frequent type of the Intertextual relations is parallel negation state.

Beauty in the view of the holy Quran enjoys a high position and value, so that, in many verses, various manifestations of beauty, its factors and symbols, areas of beauty and so on have been referred to. The holy Quran considers the concept of beauty beyond tangible beauties and extends it to metaphysical, ethical, and spiritual beauties as well. In this article, first the concept of beauty in the Quran as well as its scope in tangible, spiritual, and ethical affairs has been elaborated and then the Quranic aesthetical concepts in a set including the main concepts of beauty like: beauty, goodness, concepts related to it such as ornamentation, decoration, joy and terms indicating elements of beauty such as value and color have been studied. Having studied words and aesthetic expressions in the Holy Quran, we come to the conclusion that there is a harmony among a range of material, spiritual, and ethical expressions. This style offers us a comprehensive model of aesthetics.

Shias and Sunnis have a lot of commonalities in interpreting Tabligh verse, which helps us understand the meaning of the verse easier, but opinion is divided on determining what Prophet Mohammad(Pbuh) in this verse was assigned to publicize. God ‘s threat and His promise to keep Prophet Mohammad(Pbuh) safe make this verse important enough to study. This verse is one of the Shias’ reasons for proving the Velayat of Imam Ali (Pbuh) based on the reasons from the Quran and hadiths .Theses implications have been explained in different ways. One of the implications which little attention has been paid to is lack of attention to the context of the verse and its impact on the appearance and meaning of the verse. Investigating the context as well as the internal evidence of the verse leads us to Velayat of Imam Ali (Pbuh). And with a bit of reflection on the context of the verse, we note that these verses have a profound connection with each other.

Based on the Qur'an, Man is the best creature of God. That is why Qur'an refers to him a lot, and some judgments have been made about man and his deeds. Given the importance of anthropological value and its impact on human behavior, in this article we have classified the Qur'anic judgments into two groups: condemnatory and complimentary features. Furthermore, these features have been briefly analyzed based on some contemporary and earlier interpretations of Sunnis and Shiites. It is important to know in what ways man in the Qur'an seems to be worthy of praise or condemnation, and to know what proportion exists between them based on the quantitative and qualitative assessment and which one is more fundamental. The main question in this case is what is the dual philosophy of the Qur'anic descriptions about man? This study is a library-based, descriptive, and hermeneutics with a theoretical approach which tries to seek the answers to the questions based on the Qur'an. It is suggested that all the instincts and attributes that the human nature are composed of, either positive and negative, pave the way for his excellence and perfection, and are necessary for the human growth. Moreover, if some human features are criticized in some verses of the Qur'an, It is because of the fact that man has misused or overused them or even the criticism is relative. That is to say man is attributed a condemnatory feature when he is compared with some creatures or divine greatness. Therefore, the reason of dual descriptions of man in the Qur'an becomes clear and the superficial contradiction between the verses of praising and blaming disappears.
