Abstract

The primary and fundamental condition for the credibility of findings regarding the nature of human beings and their existential structure is reliance on credible scientific sources. Among the available sources, relying on the Holy Qur'an as an authentic, definitive, and indisputable source is undeniable, especially since this sacred text has introduced its mission and that of the Prophet as guiding and educating humanity. The Holy Qur'an is the most complete eternal gift and the greatest divine blessing to humanity, and it is only through its teachings that a person can reach the ultimate perfection and the status of true humanity. In this context, analyzing the relationship and interaction between humans and their Creator is essential. This study, which is conducted using a descriptive-analytical method, seeks to examine the stages of human interaction with God and to elucidate the Qur’anic system of these relational stages from the perspective of the interpreters of both Sunni and Shia traditions. By examining the types of human interaction with God, two forms of relationship—conceptual and existential—are discovered, with the conceptual relationship serving as a prerequisite for achieving the existential relationship. Seven types of conceptual relationships are discussed.
