Resurrection and return of human is innate and natural that has been affecting human life and activities throughout the history. Divine religions have confirmed this belief. But howness of this return is placed under the category of bodily resurrection which has been explained in different ways in the teachings of the three religions. The resurrection in the divine religions of Islam, Christianity and Judaism, is physical. The physical resurrection is explained in the Holy Quran and Bible passages both similarly and differently in different cases. The emphasis on the resurrection of the body and the return of the body from the soil are among the characteristics of bodily resurrection in both Quran and Bible. In this regard, the extent and scope of the teachings of the Quran and the Bible have some differences. Among the differences of the bodily resurrection in the Quran and the Bible are speaking human organs and inanimate objects, animal’s resurrection, resemblance of divine body with earthly body, the fate of human body. There is also a great deal of common ground between the Quran and the Bible.

Transmission of God’s purposeful discourse is done through different sciences and methods. One of literary methods to understand God’s discourse is semantics. Therefore, as Quranic words played key roles in expansion of its meaning, the examination of this method deems necessary. This paper aims to investigate the meaning of the words of the Quran in Tafsir al-Mizan, and applies a descriptive-analytical research method with a Quranic approach to investigate the existing differences in Quran’s words and finally concludes that changes have been made in some Quranic words before and after the descent in a way that some Quranic words had almost the same meanings before the descent; however, they undergone some changes during the descent such similarity in meanings, expansion, integration, and so on. Also, some changes were made in some Quranic words after the descent. The study shows that Allameh Tabataba’i’s book was written based on the principles and rules of some other works such as Tafsir Majma al-Bian and Koshaf.

Adaptation is a form of application and manifestation of the verses of the Quran in Imams’ words. The present study aimed to examine different forms of adaptations and motivation for their application in the words of Imam Reza. As the Holy Quran for Muslims enjoys a high status among Muslims and is the source from which the Imams took their underlying themes, Imam Reza used the Quranic verses repeatedly in his Imamate hadith to discuss different dimensions of leadership and issues related to it. This article first explain the concept of adaptation and motives behind its usage. Then, it examines this literary element in Imam’s sermon. In this holy Hadith, different forms of adaptations have been used including full, partial, varied, reference and inference adoptions, and it was observed that the Imam utilized each of these forms of adaptations with different motivations and purposes. This paper attempts to examine these adaptations with an analytical approach.

Wahhabism has particular views on various topics apart from other religions and Islamic sects. One of the specific beliefs of this sect is differences in explaining issues related to leadership and the saints of God, which is based on the special foundations about the definition of heresy and its various manifestations which has been formed. Wahhabism with the rejection of cause and effect system has denied the grace of Imams as a medium and as a result consecration and resorting to Imams and wanting healing from them is heresy and visiting their graves is innovation. This article by showing the fundamental deviation of this sect in analyzing polytheism with emphasis on the views of Allameh Tabatabaei has criticized it and has reached to the conclusion that loose irrational ideas of Wahhabism has caused advocate scholars of this sect to present an incorrect definition of the manifestations of heresy and development in its scope. With reference to the opinions of Allameh Tabatabaei in Almizan can easily become aware of Wahhabism’s mistaken beliefs about instances and many other actions such as God’s blessing and invoking the prophets and saints and asking intercession from them and visit their graves and oath of God, deemed to be outside the scope of heresy.
