Abstract

Paying attention to the correct meanings of the words of the Quran plays an important role in interpreting and understanding the meaning of God Almighty. Hence, the meanings of words are considered as one of the important keywords of every commentator in understanding the divine word, based on which, his interpretation has a special direction and may be influential in the works of later commentators. One of these commentators is Zamakhshari, who in his commentary (Kashaf) has chosen special meanings for some words that have been criticized by other commentators such as Allameh Tabatabai. In this research, the question has been answered that what words did Allameh Tabataba'i criticize in Keshaf's commentary and what is the validity of his criticisms? This article, by descriptive-analytical method and library method, while collecting these words and mentioning the meanings of Zamakhshari and Tabatabai's critique, also examines the accuracy of these meanings and the critiques made in order to find out which meanings; The meanings of Zamakhshari or Allameh Tabatabai are correct. The result of the research is that although the critical opinions of the author of al-Mizan are often correct, in some cases, Zamakhshari's point of view is valid and preferable, and Tabatabai's criticism does not apply to it.
