motional intelligence is one of the most important discoveries of researchers in the field of psychology in recent decades, and its recognition and cultivation has had a significant impact on the improvement of various aspects of the life of human society.In this article, the possibility of the existence of emotional intelligence (emotional) components as a gateway to spiritual intelligence has been investigated from the perspective of a religious scholar. The current research is a documentary case, a library that first briefly explains concepts such as intelligence and emotional intelligence, and then among the fifteen components that Bar-On introduces as indicators of emotional intelligence; The two components of flexibility and determination, which are seemingly opposite to each other; It examines the entire Holy Quran case by case. The results of this research show that both of these components are expressed in the form of divine advice to Prophet Muhammad and the believers in the Qur'an and can also be seen in the speech and behavior of some characters mentioned in the Qur'an such as Prophet Abraham.

Based on the cognitive theory of metaphor, abstract concepts are understood based on experiential concepts. There are many evidences of this way of conceptualization in the Holy Quran. The frequency of the word faith in the Quran shows the central role of faith in spiritual life. The works and manifestations of faith are one of the most important aspects of faith, which are emphasized a lot in the Quran. In the current research, 23 verses related to works of faith in 9 areas of origin have been studied with the aim of analyzing the conceptualization pattern of faith in the Qur'an. Studies show that name-mappings such as "faith is a white face", "faith is the guidance of the heart", "faith is salvation from fire", "faith is a profitable business", "faith is a light running in the forward and right direction of believers to It is towards heaven", "faith is guidance to the straight path" and "faith is the exit from darkness to light" have been proposed for the metaphorical conceptualization of the works of faith. Also, the schemas of the place and the vessel are also used to illustrate the dignity and benefit of divine mercy due to faith.

Social issues and needs forced the Muslim world in the contemporary century, especially Shia social commentators, to think. by recognizing the needs and issues of the Islamic society, these commentators found the cure in returning to the Qur'an and referring to interpretation with a social attitude and current issues in a way that responds to the needs of the time. The main purpose of this research is to investigate the function of social interpretation, which is done by the method of content analysis and by studying the social interpretations of Shiite commentators. This interpretive approach has been carried out in the framework of the Islamic world's confrontation with social issues in the last century, and the most important function of this interpretation in the commentators' approach is the Responsiveness of the Qur'an to social issues. The boom of cultural studies and anthropology, theorizing in social issues, Compilation of divine systems and traditions, extraction of social jurisprudence rules, Analyzing social damages...As a result of these developments in the thought of Shia social commentators, the Holy Quran was explained based on the needs of the day and more cognitive layers of the Quran were identified.

There are a lot of conceptual metaphor for introducing “life” in Quran and Nahj al-Balaghah; including the metaphor of plantification that has been used in various ways to draw dimensions of life. This analytical-descriptive study tried to use the concepts of conceptual metaphor to analyze the projection of the source domain of "plants" on the target domain of the "life" in the text of Qur'an and Nahj-ol-Balaghah, in order to clarify that in the text of Quran and Nahj al-Balaghah which concepts of the source domain of “plants” projected on the target domain of “life”. What are the most important mappings of this projection process? And what is the role of using the conceptual metaphor of "life is agriculture" in explaining the Islamic perspective toward life?The results of this study showed that in the text of Qur'an and Nahj al-Balaghah through plantification, a variation between life and plants and related terms has been created which is related to the movement of human being from birth to death and reaching the final destination of life. .

The author of the Qur'an criticism book read the error and weakness in the divine verses with the presupposition of equating the Holy Qur'an with human texts, and further considered the reason for this weakness in its human nature. With this view, he denied the freedom of belief in the revealed text. It seems that the writers of this text did not take into account the heterogeneity of liberal discourses and Islam in understanding the concept of freedom of belief and the linguistic and meta-linguistic components in the scope of the context and correlations related to the text and context, the general spirit of the verses, the discourse atmosphere and the living conditions of the era. Descendants took away the absence of this concept in the text of revelation. Therefore, in this research, an attempt was made to express the heterogeneity of freedom of belief in today's world and how this concept is used and optimal in the Qur'anic discourse, and by using linguistic and translinguistic components in the scope of understanding the revelation text, the author's perception of the Qur'an criticism book is incomplete and incomplete.

The apparatus and flow of suspicion transmission is organized from various components such as suspicion centers, grounds for creating suspicion, the raw materials of reasoning, the process of reasoning, and the procedures for transmitting suspicion. In the meantime, recognizing the causes and foundations of suspicion will play an important role in the process of responding to suspicions. In the form of a book that explains the underpinnings and backgrounds of the Qur'an, in addition to answering the cases of doubt, it has also paid attention to the causes and foundations of the formation of doubt. The present study, understanding the Qur'anic discourse on this subject, using exploratory-analytical method, has divided the aforementioned subject into two categories of epistemological causes and methodological foundations. According to the achievement of this article, cases such as insufficient cognition, superstition, following false traditions, applying false presuppositions and determinism are among the epistemological causes of creating doubts. Also methods such as incorrect analogy, incorrect induction, pursuit of similarities, methodological exclusivism, selective approach and following the misguided can be evaluated in the methodological sphere.

One of the verbal issues formed under verses is the "miracle" topic. The thinkers have falsified the term for the document and the prophecy of prophets; But no comprehensive definition for miracles has provided a definition for miracles according to their recognition and understanding of the Holy Qur'an and some historical reports, as well as the verses in the Qur'an. The research needs is to provide a comprehensive definition of this term by examining the view of Muslim thinkers. The results of the present study using descriptive-analytical method and citation to the verses of the Holy Qur'an are: 1. The miracle in the word, the name of the subject and means that Muslim scholars are for the current feather of the document and positive The mission of claiming prophecy is, they have chosen; 2. The miracle is based on the verses of the Qur'an regarding the miracles of Jesus and Moses 7 and the rational assumption of the prophets and proposals, and as some thinkers say, there is no need for defensive necessity. 3. The necessity of providing miraculous, reasoning and projection is to verify the truth of claiming claims of prophecy; 4.

Translation of holy texts, especially the Holy Quran, is one of the propaganda necessities of Islam. Attention to the trans-temporal and trans-spatial mission of the Qur'an has led many scholars throughout the history of Islam to translate the Qur'an. Among them is the accuracy in translating the morpheme "other" in the Holy Qur'an. Now the question is, what exactly does the adjective "non" descriptive mean? Descriptive-analytical evaluation and critique of examples of popular contemporary translations of the word "other", and finally the introduction of the proposed translation, suggest that due to the inherent ambiguity of the name, it should be constantly added to the meaning. Hence, "other" either means an adjective or is in the position of exception. The comparison of the accuracy of translators in recognizing the nature of the word "other" is significant in some verses, and in some positions requires revision of the translation. nature of the word "other" is significant in some verses, and in some positions requires revision of the translation.

One of the value concepts in the Qur'an is the concept of "khulud". This study examines the Qur'anic meaning and discovers its semantic layers with the simultaneous semantics based on the analysis of the relations of companionship, substitution and reciprocity of the words Khulud. The burden is on the people of Hell, in about 30 cases, the word "eternity" is associated with "eternity", and in "3" it is about the eternal eternity of the disobedient infidels in Hell. Khulud "emphasizes the necessity of immortality of both groups in heaven and hell. But due to the companionship of Khulud with the divine providence in verses" 105 to 108 "of Surah Hood and verse" 128 "of Surah An'am Therefore, it is possible for the disobedient believers and disobedient infidels to leave hell. The hegemon and the system of hellfire are negative, static and apostate.The main view of the Qur'an on holiness is that the gate of faith is opened to man to get rid of the torment of hell and reach paradise.

Critical discourse analysis is one of the most prominent contemporary linguistic theories. This linguistic phenomenon rediscovers the connection between the function of language and the social and political contexts used in its context. The critical discourse approach examines the ways in which language in a two-way communication, on the one hand, creates social relations and, on the other hand, is formed in the context of these relations. Critical analysts analyze the structure of the text and then explain and interpret its results, examining the construction of texts and deciphering the ideologies underlying the context of text. Surah Al-Burooj is one of the special surahs of the Quran which has a discourse structure by constructing words and situational context and having educational goals. Today, critical discourse analysis has opened new horizons in religious-Quranic studies.This research intends to analyze and examine all the significant signs that exist in Surah Al-Buruj from the perspective of Norman Fairclough (1989) critical discourse analysis in three levels of description, explanation and interpretation by descriptive-analytical method

The influence of gender and its related presuppositions is one of the issues in understanding religious texts. Hence, in recent decades, with the advent of the feminist movement and women's reading of religious texts, The recovery of women's rights has been on the rise. Among the contemporary scholars who have read the verses of the Qur'an in the field of women is Amina Wadud, an American-African-Muslim scholar who has recently interpreted the verses under the influence of Fadl al-Rahman. This research intends to use descriptive-analytical method and documentary tools; While explaining Amina Wadood's thought and method in interpretation, he should apply his views to the thoughts of Ayatollah Javad Amoli. The results of the analytical study of these two personalities show that the gender of the interpreter, in the interpretation of the Qur'an, if it is free from any gender presuppositions and prejudices, and if his interpretation is done in a scientific and fair manner; It will not have much effect.

Semantics is the human knowledge that systematically examines the method of understanding the meanings of texts, especially literary-religious texts. His Contemporary Theory of Consciousness was put forward by Michael Holliday (1978) in the London School. Old and new information is the main interface of the two roles of a sentence in the construction of textual relativism. The construction of a textual text is an audience-centered construction that is based on cognition or knowledge. Since the miracle of the Holy Quran goes back to its hybrid and textual features, the semantic mappings used in the news context of the Divine Word are a good platform for analyzing and explaining the intended purposes of Quranic stories. In this research, an attempt has been made to first take a brief look at the Qur'anic stories and their theoretical framework through a descriptive-analytical method and then to examine the relationship structure between new and old news in a number of Qur'anic stories with a semantic semantic approach.

The semantic multiplicity of the word is more limited by its application in concurrency and lexical compositions. The structure of the congregations or lexical conventions plays an essential role in determining the exact meanings of those Qur'anic words, with different interpretations and interpretations, including the word "rab", which is about the semantic root, historical, application, and also the meanings And its implications are not inconsequential, or in the determination of these implications, especially in the Holy Qur'an and its translation, only some of the applied aspects of the term are cited at the very beginning of the Genesis. In the translations of Makarem-e-Shirazi, Pulāḍāḍ and Safavi, the word "rab" is sometimes used as the equivalent of words such as: the owner, the gentleman, the lord, the king, etc. This has led to the signification and translation of it in some verses other than God. . The present research is based on the descriptive-analytical method in order to study the implications of the word "rab" for the time of the Qur'an's revelation, its text and its translation, according to the principle of consistency of the vocabulary. The result of the research shows that the nominal face of the word

Al-Qiyamah is one of the names of the hereafter in the Qur'an that has been used in all applications as a Yum-i-Qiyamah compound, Qur'anic applications indicate that the meaning of Yum-i-Qiyamah is the time of judgment. In the lexicons' works this concept of matter [Q W M], And it is meant to rise from the grave or stand before God, commentators have two views ,stand up from the grave and stand up to God. The study of this material in the Semitic language family illustrates the creative structure of the vertical conceptual schema, which has a rich basis,a concept that can be considered for this material then the concept in the form of a conceptual metaphor as another creative structure in meaning.The concept of metaphor has been used in the language of the Qur'an and the conceptual metaphor has been created, the metaphor of the metaphor on which multiple micro-metaphors are coherent, and the concept of "al-Qiyama" in the Quran is intended for the target audience. ,Conceptualizations about the concept of "al-qiyama" and examining its differences with the concept of "Ba'ath" In some works synonymous with it, another issue has been addressed in the present study

Regarding the fact that quite a few quranic messages have been expressed implicitly, present study is an attempt to investigate the orientational metaphor denoted by the term Hayat in Quran based on the conceptual metaphor theory. In doing so, translated version of Makarem, Almizan and Nemuneh interpretations of Quran were used for gathering the data. The data were then analyzed. Regarding the orientational metaphors of the term Hayat, those of up, down and near were obtained but the orientational metaphor of far has not been used. The orientational metaphor of up demonstrated the concepts such as: good and blessing, and these attributed to God, where as the orientational metaphors of down demonstrated the concepts such as: weakness, abjectness, torment and disgrace. The orientational metaphor of near has been expressed with demonstrative noun Hazehi that collocated with Hayat: It is observed in some verses that demonstrate the meanness of this world, the insistency on this and the effects and outcome of our actions in this world. This study shows the efficiency of modern theory of metaphor in analyzing the language of Quran that leads to a better understanding, translation and interpretation of quranic concepts

From the point of view of external textual analysis, considering the time of its emergence, the cultural situation and the author's motivation, one can find an accurate analysis of the scientists' view of the effect of scientific and scientific support for introspection analysis. From the internal point of view, with the author's analysis of the language of the Qur'an, his view of the importance of poetry in theology and interpretation, as well as his understanding of the concept of interpretation, can be drawn from the point of view of the permissible conceptual domain. Abū ʻUbaydah used various explanatory tools such as vocabulary, syntax, rhetoric, and reading to explain the permitted nature.

The aim of this writing is to examine and analyze development of western studies on Shi’a interpretation of Qur’an in four periods of the first half of twentieth century, second half of it, from the year 2000 to 2010 and from 2010 to the present (2016). The statistics of studies done in this field in the west can be gained by the use of bibliography books and sites. We can also analyze the development in western scholars’ view of Shi’ite exegesis by reading some of their works. The results show continuous growth in the west interest in this field. The results also manifest a rapid increase in quantity of works in the second half of twentieth century that might be because of Islamic Revolution of Iran. In addition to that we observe more variety from the beginning of the present century that leads to the most rush, variety and development in the second decade of it.

Research on interpretative thought and commentary history is one of the well-known areas in Qur'anic and interpretive studies, and many works have been done in this regard. However, so far, no independent study of the currents and interpretative trends in the early Shi'i period has been conducted based on a deep historical approach. This review is more important when we assume, based on a common reading, that the interpretive approach was in the first Shi'ite interpretive scriptures, "esoteric / narrative," one in which the phenomenon was exaggerated. This research seeks to transpose the main discourses of interpretation in their period based on the notion of "interpretation of the extant" using the interpretive reports of the age of the Prophet Baqir (AS).This study will finally show that in the early part of the 2nd century the two main interpretative discourses among the Imamies can be interlinked with the application of the concept of thought and thought in the field of interpretation. Converters to the first discourse, which is referred to here as the "appearance / backend" discourse, were mostly characters in the spectrum of the Mufzal bin Umar al-Ja'fi. The respondents to the second discourse, herein referred to as the "Interpretation / Discrimination" discourse, were the majority of the Imamite in that period, following a wider reading of the concept of backwardness based on dual discrimination / interpretation.

An important aspect of the Qur'anic dialogue is observing and not-observing rules of politeness in the intended talks. This research seeks to study the effects of politeness and impoliteness in the talks between Pharaoh and Moses(A), relying on Brown and Levinson (1987) and Culpeper (1996). This research is to answer the question how and in what direction the use of politeness and impoliteness strategies is based on the socio-economic, and participatory power. The results show the more polite speech of Moses and the impolite speech of Pharaoh, the greatest combination of strategies in the verses, the use of the high rate of all the strategies of politeness by Moses(A), and the use of the highest rate of all impoliteness strategies by the Pharaoh. The findings of the research also indicate the importance of the study of politeness and impoliteness as a socio-pragmatic phenomenon that links religion and ethics. This study, with the help of new linguistic theories, introduces a new horizontal perspective to the audience in order to better understand the verses of the Quran and its interpretations.

In the verse “he sent down for you eight heads of cattle in pairs”, God the almighty has mentioned the creation of man from a single soul and reiterated sending down the “eight heads of cattle in pairs” and spoke of livestock. Attributing the verb “sending down” to “eight heads of cattle in pairs” has led to various viewpoints such as parallelism of the creation in these animals; however, studying the concept and formation of “eight heads of a cattle in pairs” regarding the word count for “eight”, its semantic relationship with the things referred to, the collocating verb and other components of the verse have not been considered yet. This issue makes scrutinizing the semantic implications of the phrase “eight heads of cattle in pairs” more important. Based on this, and by relying on Quranic functions, and by making use of the etymology and symbolism of the words in the above verse such as “eight”, “pairs” and “sending down”, we can infer meanings such as “balance, correspondence, and lawfulness of nature”, “being paired, linking and balance” and “destiny and measuring the creature from the divine treasures” respectively. Also, based on clues such as the register of the verse, the implied meaning of the “balance and lawfulness of the creation in this world” can be inferred for the phrase “eight heads of cattle in pairs”.

In this regard, one of the expressive forms of the Holy Qur'an ,is the domain of the mythological expressions of this sacred text, which in our traditional literature is, to a large extent, the same talk of talismans, and with myths or the examination of nature The language of the mythical elements of the text is fundamentally different. one of the mythological expressions of the Holy Qur'an, the references to this sacred text to the ancient model of the mum of the earth, was first worshiped in the great form of the mother of the old age, and then in its various historical periods, its significance and glory reduced. The present study seeks to answer this question. Considering the mythological background of the married woman of Mesopotamian civilization and the island of Saudi Arabia, can one recognize the various types of representations of this ancient Mam earth in the mythological expression of the Holy Qur'an?
