Abstract
Interpretive methods are the tools that commentators use to discover and express the meaning of God in the verses of the Quran. It is necessary to consider which method is a reliable tool to achieve more accurate dimensions. In the method of interpreting pure narration, the commentator only suffices to mention the appropriate narrations in the following verses. But in the comprehensive ijtihadi method, it uses a combination of different methods in accordance with the requirements of the verses. This study, in order to compare the effectiveness of these two methods (meaning preserving the immortality of the quranic verses) with the comparative method, has studied the interpretation of verse 159 of Al-Baqarah Surah in comprehensive ijtihadi interpretations. This verse forbids scholars from concealing the teachings of God in the Quran. In this research, the plausible examples of truth in the pure narrations and comprehensive ijtihadi interpretations of the two parties have been examined. As a result, by observing a more comprehensive view of the interpretations of “comprehensive ijtihad” than “pure narration” regarding the case of autonomous interpretation, it was realized that this method is more effective in proving the permanence and practicality of the verses of the Quran.
