Abstract

Principles and rules of interpretation, which are the general rules and propositions for inferring the meanings of the Holy Qur'an, are of importance and adherence to it prevents the commentator from misunderstanding and provides a good basis for correct interpretation of the Qur'an. Discovering and extracting the abovementioned principles and rules, especially regarding important and influential Shiite interpretations, is one of the new topics in the field of interpretive discussions and is an important step to know the interpreter's basics for interpreting Quran. In Tasnim commentary, Javadi Amoli has used several rules to understand the verses more accurately, each of which in turn can lead to a better understanding of his intellectual system and the audience will benefit more from his commentary. This rule of reasons of revelation is the subject of the present study. The results of this article showed that the commentator of the Tasnim considers only those reasons of revelation to be valid if they are narrations from the infallible Household of the Prophet and have a correct document. In his view, the scope of influence of such narrations goes far as they are in harmony with the general lines of the Qur'an, otherwise they will be abandoned. Also, from his point of view, such narrations can only express an example of the general meaning of the verses, and therefore, they cannot be used as restricted and customized in the interpretation of the Qur'an.
