Of great interest to the scholars of ethics and literature has been the concept of speech etiquettes. Speech is one of the voluntary acts of the human beings manifested as a result of his personal motives. The purpose of dealing with speech etiquettes is to provide rules for the proper form of contemplation and subsequently rules for elegant speech. There is an interrelated relationship between the two; as one with elegant thoughts puts his thoughts into elegant words. The present study deals with the significance of speech and the manner of articulation in the view of the holy Quran, the relationship between speech and one's inner character, as well as the major rules and etiquettes of speech from the perspective of the Quran and traditions.

This paper discusses and critiques a theory which states that the Qur’an is imperfect and cannot be generalized to all times and places and to all new and changing issues; such a theory requires that people continue to experience what the Prophet would experience in order to fill this void. Later in this paper we deal with the views of Sadr al-Moteallehin and Mowlana about the Qur’an and the relation between the Qur’an and Mathnavi. The paper then, in a firm and documented way, refutes the competing claim that these great people have offered new religious concepts, other the ones in the Qur’an.

Knowledge in the absolute sense of awareness is divided into two kinds of presential and acquired. Three criteria for this division are: intervention of the human faculties or lack of such intervention, the existence or lack of a mediator, and with respect to the meaningfulness or existence of knowledge. It was Farabi who first divided acquired knowledge intotwo further categories of conception and perception. Other Islamic thinkers have advocated Farabi's classification and have studied it more than other taxonomies. Acquired knowledge is also classified into certain and non-certaintypes. Denotatively, certain knowledge means removal of doubt, and as an expression, it has several meanings all of which share the notion of stability and continuity. Illusion and doubt are the preliminary concepts guiding us to the meaning of certainty, and are not of equal significance compared to the notion of certainty; they are mostly applied in rational sciences. Dogma is a word closely related to certainty and denotes a preponderant belief. However, in some views, its being susceptible to distortion and the fact that its opposite may also be possible accord unreliability to it and a lower status compared to certainty. For Islamic thinkers, reliable knowledge is one that is comprehensive, cannot be falsified and will not fall into decline. Many of Islamic thinkers deem knowledge and certainty to be the same. Religious documents such as the holy Qur'an and the narrations of the immaculate Imams accord a high status to certainty. The Qur'an does not consider non-certain argument as valid and strongly insistson reasoning and certain evidence. The narrations on this subject also emphasize the importance of certainty and its value. The holy Qur'an and the narrations have identifieddifferent ranks of certainty all of which enjoy the status of certainty, but at the same time have some features that distinguish them from other ranks. Intellectual certainty, intuitive certainty and real certainty are three ranks of certainty.

Love is a state existing in all humans and in a specific period of their life it reaches its climax. This common phenomenon, however, is different for divine guides; some people take divine guides as their role models for how to display love and affectionand others criticize them. The present paper examines differing meanings and types of love, first from the viewpoint of different sects as well as divine revelation and then in the lifestyles of these guides. From the perspective of the guides, true love and true lovers are admired and false love and lovers are disapproved of. They see true love as immense, shedding light on one's entire life; for them, virtual love is in line with true love and false love has no room in their lives. Accusations of having false love leveled at divine guides are expressly rejected in Quranic verses and by the Family of the Prophet, and their life and character are introduced as exempt from false love and vain desire.

This study uses library research methodology to investigate how to strengthen the family ties using the Prophet’s life as a model. Emphasizing the critical position of families, this paper seeks to enumerate goals of family formation aimed at meeting the material, spiritual and mental needs of human beings including their need for peace and security. As stated in this study, to reach the sublime goals and objectives of Islam and to protect and maintain their very existence one needs to seriously take care of the family law as stipulated in Islam. It is therefore necessary that all the plans and policy makings be in line with the promotion and interest of the institution of family, and meanwhile the job and occupation of family members should be clearly defined and provided for. Finally, this paper clarifies the role of the holy motivations behind occupation of the family members and reviews the life of the Prophet (pbuh) and his living expenses through religious literature. The above are only few of the many internal and external factors in family relations which can be implemented using the life of the prophets and especially the Prophet of Islam and the Infallible Imams as the model in life.

As a key verse of the Holy Qur’an, the Verse of Purity (Aye-ye Tat'hīr) has long been studied by the scholars of Islamic kallām and exegesis who have provided different interpretations. The author of the present paper seeks to shed light on the referents of Ahl al-Bayt in the Qur’anic verse. While many commentators and narrators of religious narrations have provided reliable narratives proving that Ahl al-Bayt refers to People of the Cloak (Ahl al-Kesā); i.e. the Prophet of Islam (PBUH), his daughter Fatima (AS), his cousin and son-in-law Ali (AS), and his two grandsons Hassan (AS) and Hussein (AS), some claim that it refers to prophet’s wives.

One of the duties of a religious government is to ensure the intellectual, spiritual and psychological security of the people in a society. This research aims to investigate the methods of a religious government in preventing cultural damage using a descriptiveanalytical method; the main question which is to be answered is as follows: What are the epistemological strategies of a religious government in preventing cultural damages? In a general division, cultural strategies could be divided into practical (behavioral) strategies and epistemological strategies. Epistemological strategies are further divided based on perspective, tendency, and action. Belief in monotheism, prophethood, imamate and resurrection are among themost important perspective-based epistemological strategies that play a fundamental role in preventing and removing cultural damage, and the religious government is obliged to try to strengthen these beliefs. Raising people's awareness, promoting the culture of seeking justice and rejecting tyranny, presenting religious teachings in an easy and simple way, and promoting religious teachings based on freedom are among the tendency-based epistemological strategies. And confronting harmful ideas such as heresy, eclecticism and skepticism, superstition and blind imitation of foreign culture is among the actionbased strategies of a religious government in preventing and removing cultural damages.

The development of social justice as a significant Quranic issue has a long history. The connection of this issue with the concept of "fairness" in verse 25 of Surah al-Hadid has been considered a significant axis in the view of Muslim commentators throughout history. Based on this connection, some commentators believe that "fairness" in this verse refers to the meaning of social justice. And the verse seeks to express its establishment and development as one of the original goals of the prophets; it even includes the social realm of religion. The present study, using descriptive-analytical method, seeks to analyze the various dimensions of the Quranic concept of fairness. There is sufficient evidence to prove the meaning of verse 25 of Surah al-Hadid in the sense of social justice and the interpretive development of the word fairness, and therefore it can be used to prove that the establishment of social justice was the goal of all prophets. Based on this understanding, it becomes clear that the realm of religion has great plans for worldly and social life. The path and means of establishing justice have been explained by the holy Sharia and the prophets, but the implementation of the programs is left to the people

Derivatives (katb)(ک ت ب) are among the most frequent words in the Qur'an, the Old Testament and the New Testament. This root is used in most branches of Semitic languages with the least difference in structure and meaning.The semantic domain of the (katb)(ک ت ب) has developed over time and in Arabic, in addition to preserving the original meaning, has taken on a new meaning that does not exist in any of the other branches of the Semitic language.The most important derivative of this root is the word "ketāb"(( کتاب in the common sense, which is common and widely used in Semitic languages and is a key word in sacred texts. This research with the historical-comparative-analytical method and the use of library resources first deals with genealogy and analysis of the roots of "katb"(ک ت ب) in the most important branches of the Semitic language and then examines the various functions of its derivatives in the Qur'an and the Bible and has identified the commonalities and differences. "katb"(ک ت ب) means "writing" is one of the main meanings of this root in all branches of the Semitic language, which is crystallized in the Qur'an and the Bible, and culminates in attributing writing to God with the focus on divine law in all three Abrahamic religions.Writing with Biblical evidence was developed first by engraving on stone, tablet, and wood, and then by writing in ink on scrolls and paper.

A theory that has been identified as a work and a greater part of it is based on clear meanings from the verses and narrations, but it is apparently based on evidence that has many contradictions. This research is based on the collection of information and analysis, and in order to prove the non-contradiction of the theory of specific work and part of the verses, they include the presence of an external punisher in punishment, thwarting, atonement, and replacing bad deeds with good deeds. In sum, the results of the investigation that 1- The signs of the observer regarding the presence of an external Punisher are indicative of the existence of an external Punisher in the body of a human being under the influence of making a decision, and a Punisher outside the body of a human being is based on the soul of a person, so an external Punisher is similar to the affairs of a human soul. In the most severe verses in the verses, the point of emphasis is that the hell is destroyed, the same actions of human beings are based on the command and opinion of that. Contradicting the theory of specific actions and parts with these verses in the form of an affirmative action and part that is external, moreover, because it is outside of the body of a human being or outside of the soul of a person more closely.

Among the attributes that the Holy Qur'an describes human beings with is the attribute "poverty", which is mentioned in verse 15 of Surah Fatir with the phrase "Antam al-Faqara". In order to know the poor man, one must know the examples of poverty, so that by knowing the examples of the highest needs of the human being, it is also possible to find the solutions to meet the needs. Referring to the following interpretations of this verse, they only provide generalities about the types of poverty and do not clarify the exact examples and dimensions of need, but the main question is what are the examples of this poverty and need? Prayers, including the fruitful prayers of Sajjadiyyah, express more precise examples of poverty, and in the light of the prayer interpretation of the verse, the system of human needs is known, a system that can be categorized into needs at a glance, including: basic needs such as sustenance, energy, motivation: such as forgiveness, hope, humanity, and performance such as insight, obedience, trust, remembrance, and other needs, including: mercy, forgiveness, and love. This research aims to analyze the thematic content and by collecting the materials in a library form, to deal with the prayerful interpretation of this verse and draw a type of system of needs, using the prayers of the scriptures, and clarify the capacity of this type of interpretation to the best of its ability.

A proposition or logical proposition is the smallest unit of knowledge defined as “justified true belief”. Some Qur'anic verses are a single proposition and some contain several propositions. Quranic propositions are sometimes religious laws. Sometimes they are moral and sometimes they are philosophical. In the same way, sometimes Quranic propositions are mystical. What are the criteria and indicators of the mystical nature of Quranic propositions? This question is the main question of this article. According to the findings of this study, being related to the unity of existence in the true and defensible sense, being related to the unity of divine acts, denoting multiple mystical worlds, denoting a descent arc and an ascent arc, denoting the stream of consciousness and knowledge in the whole existence, etc.,… are some of the criteria for being mystical propositions in the Qur'an. It should be noted that in this article theoretical mysticism is the basis of the discussion and practical mysticism requires its own independent writing.

Social monotheism, which is a new term and one of the topics of social discourse, is based on Quranic research and is inspired by the key sentence La Allah Ilallah and many monotheistic verses. It has two main components of negation of worshiping other than God and proving the oneness and Lordship of God, which is according to the Quranic verses. Each has sub-components. Considering that the dimensions and social identity of monotheism have not been clearly explained in the existing works from the perspective of Muslim thinkers, this research seeks to answer the question of how the components of social monotheism are analyzed from the point of view of commentators and traditions. Considering that worship is the basic meaning of social monotheism, what is the meaning of worship in Quranic culture?This research, which is organized by relying on the appearances of the verses indicating monotheistic topics and with an analytical-inferential approach, shows that some commentators have paid attention to the duality of the truth of monotheism in the Qur'an, and by adhering to interpretive traditions, they have compared "worship" to "obedience" They have made meaning. The proof of the truth of this interpretation is the words of some lexicographers in the meaning of the word worship.

Detailed abstract
Critical discourse analysis seeks to discover the speaker's worldview by examining the manner of discourse with extratextual conditions. Van Dijk considers language to be the carrier of the speaker's ideology and to be loaded with power. In the critical discourse, he emphasizes the positive characteristics of oneself and the negative characteristics of others, emphasizing the rejection of the positive characteristics of others and the negative characteristics of oneself in lexical, syntactic, rhetorical, semantic, and argumentative microstructures. Surah Hud has a conversation between Prophet Noah and his people, in which both sides of the conversation try to emphasize their positive characteristics and the negative characteristics of others and reject their negative characteristics and the positive characteristics of others. The research aims to analyze the discourse of Noah and his people in Surah Hud with Van Dyke's descriptive-analytical method and critical discourse analysis. In Surah Hud, Noah's speech, despite the stubbornness and threats and insults of his people against him, is mostly based on strengthening his positive characteristics and the negative characteristics of his people with softness and tolerance and a flexible and questioning language with a rich emotional charge. It is a type of friendship based on religious democracy and logical reasoning to make his people think in order to avoid stubbornness, which by using different language forms, changes the discourse to himself, taking into account the benefit of himself and his people, so as to make them guide him to the right path, but his people, with inflexible and decisive language indicating a dictatorship, try to reject other positive characteristics in order to give legitimacy to Hud's speech and remove legitimacy from Prophet Noah's speech.
Introduction
Discourse analysis reveals the speaker's ideology by examining the speaker's language. Van Dijk proposes four basic pillars to highlight the ideology of discourse: highlighting one's positive works and marginalizing one's negative works, and marginalizing other positive works and highlighting other negative works.
The Holy Quran has a special ideology that depends on the ideology of the author of the word, Van Dijk considers ideology as a means to produce unbalanced power relations in society, whose tool is language. Surah Hud is one of the Meccan surahs of the Holy Quran, which contrasts the ideology or the ruling belief of Prophets such as Noah, Hud, Saleh, etc. The spiritual power of these prophets is expressed by the material power of their stubborn people.
The importance and necessity of the research is that Van Dyck's ideological square model shows the ideology of Prophet Noah and his people and their emotional burden full of altruism or hostility and stubbornness, and by examining the language of the two sides' conversations on the authenticity of the prophethood of Prophet Noah and His true language affirms that despite the stubbornness, threats, and insults of his people against him.
Research Method
Based on Van Dyck's descriptive analytical method and critical discourse analysis theory, this article tries to analyze the conversation between Prophet Noah (PBUH) and his people in Surah Mubarakah Hud through the following questions:
How and using what styles does Prophet Noah (PBUH) express his ideology?
How and using what styles did the people of Noah (PBUH) express their ideology?
Results
Prophet Noah and his unbelieving people in Surah Hud as manifestation of monotheism and polytheism, each of them expresses and emphasizes their ideology, and in this, Van Dyck's ideological square model is presented, in such a way that all verses are based on highlighting one's own positive features and marginalizing one's negative features and highlighting other negative features and marginalizing other positive features by using rational, lexical, syntactic, rhetorical and argumentative microstructures. Prophet Noah's speech, which has the ideology of calling for the oneness of God and the mission and prophethood of God, includes all four plans, but mostly on the basis of highlighting the positive characteristics of the self and highlighting the negative characteristics of others with softness, reasoning and logic, and sometimes based on marginalizing one's negative characteristics and rejecting other positive characteristics, using intellectual, lexical, syntactic, rhetorical and argumentative structures such as argumentative and questioning styles to think. Forcing his people with words and rhetorical elements is indicative of the softness, flexibility, and breadth of his language and ideology, to the extent that sometimes in order to accept his call and prophethood by his people, he disagrees with some of their opinions such as his being a human being, not being one of the nobles and leaders. He accompanied his companions and others in order to prove that his being a human being and his companions not being nobles and not having material possessions are not against his prophethood, to pave the way for them to distance themselves from stubbornness and accept his mission and call. For this reason, Prophet Noah (PBUH) gives them short-mindedness and ignorance through the expression of these things in order to highlight their negative characteristics and his positive characteristics and to prove his mission and prophethood. These logical arguments and soft, flexible, and tolerant language are on the basis of democracy.
But the discourse of his people, who have the ideology of disbelief, polytheism, and idolatry, is mostly based on highlighting other negative characteristics (Noah) with violence, threats, and humiliation with inflexible language and decisiveness in words that indicate a dictatorship in the seat.

Examining the meaning of the words in the Quran plays an important and special role in understanding the purpose of God and the precise application of divine commands. The present study has analyzed the word " Savval" in the Quran by using the method of description and analysis. The word " Savval" which, in the dictionary analysis, contains the meaning of beguiling and embellishing, has many semantic fields in common. The use of this word in the Quran warns the audience about it and warns the believers about the possibility of falling into the trap of "Tasvil". This word emphasizes on multiplicity and gradualness in four verses and in the chapter "Tafa'il", it has been used and had a meaningful association with the words "Satan" and "Nafs". Therefore, in order to investigate the semantic fields involved with the word " Savval ", it was investigated its substitutes, which include the words "zayin", "Izlal", "Iqvae", "nazgh" and "vasvasah". In the end, the conclusion was reached that each of the companion and substitute words play a significant role in the semantic range of the word " Savval " and the concept of "Tasvil" in a specific way.

Examining the opinions of contemporary modern thinkers in the field of Quranic issues is a subject worthy of attention. Mohammad Shahrour is a new thinker who has presented a different meaning of the Quranic word furqan. According to this theory, Furqan means the ten commandments of the Torah, therefore, the purpose of proving this point of view is cited for several reasons such as: the connection of the verses based on the repetition of the word Furqan and the semantic connection of some verses and the ten commandments. The present research has analyzed and criticized the word Furqan from the root, lexical, literary, Qur'anic and interpretative point of view with analytical-critical method and further proved that the foundations of Shahrour's theory in three lexical issues (lack of root connection and The word Furqan and the Ten Commandments have some semantic, literary (mistakes in distinguishing v and inflection and creating redundant repetition) and interpretation (contradictions in the quantity and quality of the cited verses and the Ten Commandments), so the Quranic word Furqan cannot convey the meaning intended by Shahrour.

The scientific authority of the Quran encompasses a breadth of concepts and subjects centered on the word of God, playing an irreplaceable role in the system of religious knowledge. The scientific authority of the Quran, which involves multiple interpretations, has a direct relationship with the comprehensiveness of the Quran and the perfection of religion. One dimension of the authority of the word of God is the modeling of the transmission of Quranic teachings in accordance with the varying situations and conditions of the target community. The present study aims to explore the model of the scientific authority of the Quran in relation to the process of social transformation among Muslims. A descriptive-analytical examination of this issue traces the various cognitive topics in the gradual descent of the revelations, aligning with the circumstances and conditions of society and its audiences, and demonstrating an intelligent and hopeful authority for the Quranic teachings in fostering growth and transformation within society. Based on verse 29 of Surah al-Fatḥ (order of revelation: 112), the teachings of the Quran encompass four transformative stages: The germination of the religious identity of believers; growth alongside the strengthening of the believing community in the face of cultural and ideological aggression against them; the development and perfection of the impact of religion in all spheres of human life; and the creation of opportunities for designing a cyclical evolution for the expansion of Islam in the period following the revelation of the Quran. This presents a comprehensive program for all cultural administrators and stakeholders in transformation-seeking communities.

According to the third verse of Surah Nisa, a man can have more than one wife; Provided that he can observe justice between spouses. Some Shiite and Sunni commentators and jurists consider the mentioned condition as guidance. According to them, the requirement of polygamy for justice shows the consequences of polygamy and the problems caused by it. According to this opinion, a man who, despite the fear of oppression, acts on the authority of another wife, has not committed a sin and his marriage is valid. In contrast to the mentioned theory, some commentators and jurists consider the appearance of the verse to be an expression of the suspension of the Shariah permission of polygamy under the condition of justice, and consider it to be Maulvi. The result of this theory is the religious sanctity of remarriage and the afterlife punishment. Some have considered the invalidity of the second marriage as probable. The present article evaluated the evidence of the mentioned theories in a descriptive and analytical way and came to the conclusion that considering the condition of justice as a guideline is contrary to the appearance of the verse.

The Holy Quran, as the miracle of speech and in the form of a divine book, has been used to elevate humanity’s religious perspective. In the path of developing the cognition of God's attributes and reforming human beliefs in this domain, it employs unique literature. One of the Quranic innovations is the use of the audience's mental spaces and conceptual blending. This concept was proposed and presented by Fauconnier and Turner in cognitive concepts. Examining the application of mental spaces and conceptual blending in the Quran, especially in verses related to divine attributes, plays an important role in the correct human understanding of these transcendental subjects. Finally, conceptual blending and semantic mapping for conveying concepts to the audience are also considered in the present study. The present study, using a descriptive-analytical method and within the framework of semantic analysis, aims to examine the mental spaces and conceptual blending presented in the two attributes of "Creation (Khalq) and nearness (Qurb)" in the verses of the Quran. Since the human mind is sometimes mixed with polytheistic beliefs, and these attributes are extra-material and discussed within the absolute divine rule, understanding them is difficult and challenging for humans. However, the application of the conceptual blending method in this type of subject facilitates understanding for the audience. In conclusion, it is found that in examining the attributes associated with the two above attributes, a conceptual blending with the domains related to these attributes has taken place, which plays an important role in convincing the deniers of resurrection and disbelievers in divine Lordship. In other words, one of the Quran's methods in proving the principles of faith is through mapping human mental experiences with the input domain of divine attributes. These conceptual blends elevate their mental abstraction in the face of supernatural and non-experimental subjects, such as the cognition of God and belief in the occurrence of the Day of Judgment. This knowledge strengthens faith components and serves as

Quran's Tafsir has been regarded be of utmost importance among numerous fields of Islamic studies, as the subject of this field is Quran, which all other fields of Islamic studies such as Fiqh, Hadith, and ethics rely on. Islamic scholars have long used the "Reference Literature" or the Ancient poems of Arabs to interpret the words and verses of Quran and any interpretation of Quran's statements have been benchmarked against this literature. A group of scholars, however, disagree with this approach and believe that the Ancient poems do not merit such attention. In this paper, we first study the roots and causes of this tendency among Tafsir scholar and then examine the two competing views - one relying on Ancient poems and the other dismissing it as a reliable source of interpretation for Quran. We then provide an analysis which can serve as a first step in deciphering the pros and cons of each approach.

Prophet Muhammad, the Seal of the Prophets of God is perfect and meets all the common benefits of the former prophets. Quran has allocated some special characteristics specially for him, and no one achieves such characteristics until the Day of Judgment. These characteristics are divided into two categories: One on which interpreters have reached a consensus such as his marriages, the necessity of night prayers, his name in the Bible, being the first Muslim, being granted the Kosar, being a seal and an international character. The second category includes those on which interpreters and scholars have not reached an agreement, such as having the highest rank, being an absolute subject, being a model, being celebrated when addressed and his being a prophet as grace upon the believers. These are not all characteristics of the Prophet (pbuh), but there are also other specific properties that according to the Quran, other prophets do not possess.
