"The Vanguard of Guidance by the Qur'an: A Foundational and Analytical Study of Methodology and Output (Scientific Review)"
This report examines a book on a subject of profound importance: uncovering the Qur'an's guidance and its implications, and employing them for the reform of the individual and society. The book presents a unique methodology for engaging with the Qur'an through an independent work that establishes controls and foundations for this objective. The report aims to highlight the most significant aspects of the book, discuss its research discussions, and refine some of them, with particular focus on the first chapter, which provides a theoretical methodological introduction that underpins the book's conceptual framework. The book is structured into four chapters encompassing nineteen research sections. The first chapter, concerned with foundational grounding (ta'sil), addresses the concept and terminology of Qur'anic guidance-seeking (istihda'), its position within the interpretive practice, and ten methodological pathways for it. The second chapter deals with the motivations and justifications for seeking guidance from the Qur'an, demonstrating that the Qur'an is the fountainhead of certain, self-sufficient guidance. The third chapter presents illustrative examples of rhetorical, faith-based, and reformative guidance-seeking, drawing on scholarly models including Shaykh Tahir al-Jaza'iri, Ibn Badis, al-Sa'di, Muhammad Draz, and Ibn 'Ashur. The fourth chapter completes the discussion by identifying ten common pitfalls and errors in the practice of Qur'anic guidance-seeking. The report highlights the author's academic standing and the reasons for selecting this book, which contains valuable epistemological discussions worthy of being utilized in similar scholarly projects. This is particularly pertinent given the contemporary Ummah's pressing need for this type of authorship that leverages the efforts of Qur'anic exegetes to apply the Qur'an in reality. This report falls within Tadabbur Journal's mission to publish specialized scientific reports across all aspects of Qur'anic contemplation, enriching the academic arena with studies that enhance the utilization of the Noble Qur'an in knowledge, practice, and reflection.

Research topic: Man from creation to resurrection; Reflections on Surat Al-Insan.
Research Objectives: This research represents a modest effort in which the researcher aims to study Surat Al-Insan an objective study to determine its characteristics and characteristics. He dealt with the most prominent issues that the surah talked about, with a statement of their consistency, harmony and integration, and among these issues: the division of people into thankful and unbeliever, the qualities that were characterized by them, as well as what was prepared for them of promises and threats, and the fate of each group of them, and other issues that included it The surah, and I relied in the research on the inductive deductive method. At the end of the research, the researcher reached several conclusions; Among the most important of them: The Holy Qur’an has taken a unique approach in raising a person, and this approach is based on foundations based on directing the discourse to him, and a combination of encouragement and intimidation. The surah is specialized in several matters; Including: at length describing the conditions of the people of Paradise and the bliss they are in, and explaining the types of their drink in it, and singling out some words, including salsabil, ginger, and al-Qamatir. Arranging the good reward and the bliss that resides on patience of all kinds; On obedience, on disobedience, and on the predestination of God. That God does not gather two fears for His servants, nor does He gather two security for them; Whoever fears him in this world will make him safe on the Day of Resurrection, and whoever is safe in this world will fear him on the Day of Resurrection. That this world is the abode of work and trial, and that the Hereafter is the abode of reckoning and recompense, so whoever does not work here will regret there. that the one who stands for a long time in prayer day and night for God, and endures hardships for his sake in his pleasure and obedience; It is easy for him to stand on the Day of Resurrection and easy for him. The surah charts a practical approach for the callers to God × who follow it and are guided by it in the path of their calling.

(The connotations of the Quranic cosmic verses through Ibn Ashour's interpretation of Liberation and Enlightenment: Surat al-Mofassal as a model)
This research deals with the topic: (The connotations of the Quranic cosmic verses through Ibn Ashour's interpretation of Liberation and Enlightenment: Surat al-Mofassal as a model). This is done by clarifying the connotations and meanings associated with these verses in doctrinal, ethical, jurisprudence and others. It uses both the inductive and deductive approaches with the intention to draw readers’ attention to the important aspect of these Quranic cosmic verses, in a time of the dominance of scientific miracle research on this type of verses. This research reveals the diversity of the connotations of the "cosmic verses" and the associated meanings, with the predominance of the doctrinal connotations, especially the connotations illustrating the greatness and oneness of Allah the Almighty, as well as showing the existence of the resurrection (al-ba'ath), and the grace of Allah upon His creation. The research also reveals the diversity of the ‘cosmic verses’ employed in denoting these meanings, with the accuracy of the Quran in its use and employment so that those intended meanings could provide a strong and appropriate statement indicating its rhetorical miracle. It points out to the role of the ‘cosmic verses’ in highlighting the greatness of the Holy Quran from several aspects, such as its being and evidence of its divine source (being revealed by God Almighty), pure, exactitude perfect, and reaching the goal in influence and guidance, etc. It proclaims that Ibn Ashour's was sedate in interpreting these verses. He was keen to highlight their doctrinal intents, as this is the most important original purpose of the Holy Qur'an. He employed the arts of rhetoric and the science of occasion, as they are important tools in revealing the secrets of the Quran and its secrets and values that are implicitly behind the apparent structure and expressions. The research demonstrates how Surat al-Mufassil is rich with cosmic verses and their valuable connotations and meanings .

The research deals with delving into an important topic that concerns the terms of the Qur'an, on which it depends on its understanding, considering that the Qur'an has words, terms and meanings that must be taken note and understanding in order to achieve the management of the Qur'an and the inference of its provisions and judgments. The research aims to define the concept of the term mullah in the Qur'an, and to indicate its types as defined by the Qur'an, by tracking the verses in which the term is mentioned, following that inductive approach by tracking the verses contained in the term mullah, and the dictionaries known to it, using the analytical method to try to analyze these verses and research the words of scholars and to understand and identify the types of boredom. The research was presented in an introduction containing the subject of the research, its objectives, its approach, the research plan, and two researches, the first of which dealt with the definition of mullah in language and in the term of the Qur'an, while the second dealt with the talk of the types of boredom and was divided into three types, the first type, which is the sect of the right of Islam, the second type is bored of the people of the Book, and the third type is bored of those who do not have a book. Then a conclusion addressed the results and prospects of the research.

Legislative Guidance on Foods Provisions: AnExplanatory and Objective Study
This research aims to shed some light on the most crucial Sharia law relating to the consumption of Halāl food based on selected verses from Sūrat Al-Mā’idah in order to create awareness among the Muslims regarding the provisions of foods that are permissible and forbidden. However, it is noted that some Muslims who are less devoted to their religious values do not bother eating in such foreign food chains or restaurants and never questioned whether the food served is Halāl or Harām. Such a behavior clearly contradicts the Quranic guidance in making sure of the status of Halāl on the food served. The discussion is also expected to benefit the international and domestic food companies with a greater concern on Sharia teachings on food handling from production to marketing and from preparation to serving. This research uses inductive method in tracing the verses of Qur’ān that indicate provisions of foods in Sūrat Al-Mā’idah and their explanations (exegesis) based on the authentic books of Tafsir and Prophetic Tradition (Sunnah). Subsequently, an analytic-deductive approach is used to conclude the most important Sharia guidance related to the consumption of food. The author has discovered fourteen important findings of Sharia guidance related to the consumption of food and divided them into general and special instructions, and has discussed them in this paper. Finally, the study recommended activating these legislative guidelines in Muslims' daily life, and circulating them to the Halāl centers and their international laboratories which promote the standards of Halāl food. Especially that food is indispensable for humans and lots of money is spent on it.

Manifestations of the Blessing of Prepared Paths in the Light of the Surah Al Nahl
The blessing of paved routes and paths are among the great boons which Allâh confers upon humankind. This research was conducted to explore the indications of the Surah Al Nahl and take it as a springboard for discovering the various aspects of the convenience of paved paths as referred to by the Noble Quran. Importance of the topic: The importance of the topic stems from the fact that it is an attempt to contemplate the Noble Quran as duly and deeply as required, explore the boon of paved paths and its various facets and features to show gratitude for it. The relevance of this paper comes also from the fact that it demonstrates that the Quranic verses embody cosmic indications and that true science never conflicts with divine revelations. Rather it lends credence to them because it is the Creator of the universe who brought them down and whose omniscience encompasses everything. Main findings: The researcher concluded eight aspects of the blessing of paved paths in light of the Surah Al Nahl as follows: Making the earth extendedly flat and usable. Creating utilizable routes in land, sea, and air. Setting up landmarks and signs for guidance in various roads and paths. Other living creatures guide to invisible paths and ways. The consistency and uniformity of the universal laws and subjecting them for the benefit of humankind. Converting other creatures and beings to the use of humans. Making the tangible path evidence for the intangible path. Generating hopes in people’s souls by pointing out that their paths will be facilitated for them in the future. Main Recommendations Scholars, researchers, and Muslim preachers should carefully examine Allah’s blessings as reflected in the Quran and present them to ordinary Muslims in a simple manner. There are too many blessings that need to be considered in the Noble Quran, especially those which are contained in the Surah Al Nahl such as divine revelations, serviceable animals and the five senses. The researcher raised other subjects and stated that extensive separate studies should be conducted on them such as the indications of single vocabularies with respect to the objectives of the Surats of the Quran, clarifying the meanings of the ambiguous vocabularies according to the objectives of the Surats and studying the Quran’s methodology in moving from tangible meanings to intangible ones.

The purposes of Allah’s Trials from a Quranic perspective: A Thematic Study
This research examines the rationales behind tribulations from a Quranic perspective. It aims to shed light on the objectives of tribulations as reflected in the Noble Quran because of their doctrinal, educational, and moral impacts on the Muslim's life. It also employs the inductive analytical and the deductive approaches. The research found that the main rationale behind tribulation is to elicit the meanings of servitude to Allâh alone from the afflicted person's psyche and find out about the extent of his religiousness by burdening him with distress, hardship and agony. The research concluded the main rationales behind tribulation in accordance with the Noble Quran, analyzed and explored them, which reached twelve Quranic purposes according to the researcher. This is designed to be a guiding way of preserving and maximizing divine blessings and warding off new types of misfortunes. This is because tribulation shows the spiritual states of those in trouble as well as the extent of their compliance with religious obligations and prohibitions and their responsiveness to Allâh and the Prophet (may Allâh's blessings and peace be upon him). All of this varies from one person to another according to the strength of his faith, sensemaking and the rationales behind tribulations and trials.
The Contrast in Surat An-Nahl: An Exegetic and Reflective Study
Abstract The current study explores the rhetorical device of contrast (Muqabalah) in Surah An-Nahl, a chapter distinguished by its abundant use of this technique. The surah contains 25 instances of contrast, accounting for 20% of its verses. It also emphasizes the three main principles of belief: monotheism, prophethood, and resurrection, consistent with the themes of Makkan surahs. Additionally, it enumerates divine blessings, unmatched in other chapters, earning it the title Surah of Blessings. The surah also addresses fundamental rulings, legislative principles, and highlights virtues while rebuking vices. The study focuses on analyzing the occurrences of contrast in Surah An-Nahl. The study avoids reiterating foundational discussions on the linguistic and terminological meanings, types, and benefits of contrast, previously detailed in the author’s earlier study on Surat Al-Ra’d. Instead, the present study concentrates on categorizing and analyzing the verses featuring contrast based on the three primary themes—monotheism, prophethood, resurrection—along with virtues, vices, and the denunciation of pre-Islamic customs. The study has three main objectives. It highlights the significance of the rhetorical device of contrast and its role in achieving the objectives of Surah An-Nahl. It analyzes the instances of contrast and their relation to the main themes of the surah. examine the rhetorical subtleties and intricacies within the contrast structures and their impact on meaning and conciseness. The study employs an inductive-analytical approach by identifying instances of contrast in Surah An-Nahl, classifying them according to the main themes, and analyzing their rhetorical and semantic implications. Key Findings and recommendations include: The contrast in Surah An-Nahl is characterized by its richness of meaning, precision, and conciseness, while maintaining the contrast appeal. The diversity in contrast styles enhances the harmony between the meanings and the overarching themes of the surah. Most instances of antithesis deviate from the apparent meaning, enriching the text with rhetorical subtleties and nuances. Researchers are encouraged to continue studying rhetorical devices in the Quran, especially those that contribute to elucidating the principles of belief, ethics, and divine blessings.

Contemplating these meanings helps to identify some aspects of the Quranic inimitability and a great reason to act with its guidance. The current paper is an attempt to reveal some of the fine meanings of the Quranic Eloquence in talking about “Ūlū alʼalbāb” (The People of Understanding) in Surat Al-Ra’ad (Thunder); stating their significant features, great position, reward in the afterlife, as well as clarifying the words of these verses and their contexts of fine meanings. The study revealed the following findings: “Ūlū alʼalbāb” (The People of Understanding) are those with perfect faith, clear insights, the pure hearts, and minds free from every blemish and turbidity. In addition, the fine meanings of the Quranic Eloquence in talking about “Ūlū alʼalbāb” (The People of Understanding) in Surat Al-Ra’ad stated their high position and honor by Allah (Glory Be to Him), and perfect characteristcs. The verses showed the great reward awaiting for them in the afterlife and Allah’s generosity with them. If there are no verses in the Holy Quran mentioning “Ūlū alʼalbāb” except for these verses, they would have been enough to show their honor and dignity.

From the Rhetoric of Holly Quran on Differentiating Descriptions of Ranks of Bliss of “Na’im” in the Gardens “Surat AR-Hman”
Research Title: Considering the details of the types of delight (Paradise) mentioned in Gardens (Surat Ar-Rahman), and making rhetoric comparisons between its two repeated ranks for showing agreement and distinction between them. Research problem: The problem of the research lies in difference of opinion of scholars in determining the rank of each two Gardens (Surat Ar-Rahman), and the analysis of the comparisons clarifying and giving preference to what the rhetoric deems higher. Research Objectives: The greatness of the Quranic rhetoric is revealed in praising the delight (Paradise) the two Gardens (Surat Ar-Rahman), while keeping each rank of class, and explaining the high rank of the first two Gardens. Research Methodology: The research adopts the descriptive artistic approach, and takes advantage the principles of comparison theory in examining the feature characteristics of Quranic structures and tracing the subtleties of their semantics in support of his idea and to progress its objective. The most prominent research results are: Firstly: The research finds out the noble behavior of its rhetoric of the differentiation of the ranks of delight (Paradise) in Gardens (Surat Ar-Rahman) in an accurate manner which does show the great differences between them. Secondly: It is likely that the purpose o for delaying the exhortation through mentioning the gardens upon the intimidation through indicating the Fire along with causes of the despair and open the doors of hope for the disobedient if they repent and turn back to Allah. Thirdly: It is clarified as a result of mentioning the people with the two highest Gardens, without showing the people with the two lower Gardens, is mentioning those ones stated, and the praise of the ranks of their fear in the presence of position of their Allah, may His Glory be praised. Fourthly: The research seeks that the people with the two lower Gardens, who are not mentioned, -be ones weighted the hope; as the servant’s relationship with Allah, may His Glory be praised, is based on doing the servant of both fear and hope, so if the people with the first two gardens are “ones who fear,” and their rank is higher, then the two lower delight (Paradise) are ones who hope, and the rank of their later two Gardens, as stated by the noble comparisons, is lower, and Allah Almighty knows best. Fifthly: (Surat Ar-Rahman) states, through the differentiation of these two ranks, - that the reward of the people in the Hereafter is going to be based on their deeds, and that their reward will be performed as per the differentiation of their diligence. Sixthly: The analysis finds that the ranks of delight (Paradise) are in each of the two ranks of Gardens (Surat Ar-Rahman), and even if they are repeated, the distinction occurred in their details in each, as well as in the difference of their rankings for considerations mentioned in the research in a presumble manner. Seventh: Although the two ranks of Gardens (Surat Ar-Rahman) agree in the ranks of delight (Paradise), the latter of each rank is based on details that distinguish it away from the other ranks, with the upper ranks remaining the finest in ranks.eywords: Comparisons, Rhetoric, Gardens, Delight (Paradise), AL-Quran, Surat Ar-Rahman keywords: Comparisons, Rhetoric, Gardens, Delight (Paradise), AL-Quran, Surat Ar-Rahman

It also talked about the most prominent Qur’anic expressions used to denote the kinship, such as: kinship, lineage, clan, and others. This research was concluded with results, including: - Upholding ties of kinship is rightly considered one of the greatest Qur’anic qualities that a believer can embody in his life, and by it he draws closer to his Lord. - Upholding ties of kinship is the connection of the relatives, whoever they were; That is: without restriction of sanctity, inheritance, paternity, motherhood, kinship or distance in lineage. - Upholding ties of kinship is a title given to benevolence towards relatives other than parents. For charity to parents has its own title, which is “honoring one’s parents.” - The Qur’an adopted two prominent approaches in determining the upholding ties of kinship, namely: the quantitative approach based on the repetition of verses on this subject, albeit with different methods, and the qualitative approach that clarifies those methods. - The methods used within the qualitative approach in establishing this subject are very numerous, and some of them are clear, and some are hidden that require contemplation and reflection. Also, some of them relate to the aspect of rhetoric and Quranic systems, and some of them refer to the aspect of legislation. This, in addition to many other results, and useful recommendations, which I mentioned in the conclusion of the research.

The contravention between (فلمَّا)Fa-lammā and (ولمَّا)Wa-lammā in Sūrat Yūsuf
The contravention between (فلمَّا)Fa-lammā and (ولمَّا)Wa-lammā in Sūrat Yūsuf: A Contextual Approach Qur’an memorizers have long paid close attention to identifying and recording similar or repetitive expressions in the Qur’an (al-mutashābihāt). Many have relied on mnemonic poems, or memorizing systems to control similar verses, or authoring books on classifying and listing them. This is an old mechanical method that is being replaced today by the least powerful computers in terms of counting, and it is certainly more efficient and faster. Although it protects the readers from errors during memorization in prayers, or competitions, and the like, it often distracts them from pondering the meanings, which is the goal that Allah urged us to do in more than one verse, and which the Companions, the Followers, and the great scholars were keen to adhere to. The expressions (فلمَّا) fa-lammā and (ولمَّا) wa-lammā appear nineteen times in Sūrat Yūsuf. These occurrences have attracted the attention of memorizers, who have attempted to organize them through memorization rules, or statistical observations. This study acknowledges and appreciates those efforts, but it moves beyond enumeration to explore the contextual and rhetorical significance of these two expressions. Rather than limiting the analysis to the traditional grammatical view—where wāw generally indicates coordination and fā’ indicates sequence and immediacy—this research examines how their use is shaped by context and meaning. The study shows that the choice between fa-lammā and wa-lammā often reflects subtle differences related to the length of time, emotional states, and narrative pacing. In some contexts, it highlights psychological tension or disturbance, while in others it conveys calmness and reassurance. At times, it suggests speed and sudden action, and at other times deliberation and composure. In certain passages, it points to an unexpected and striking turn of events, whereas in others it leads to an outcome that appears natural and anticipated. The study argues that these patterns reveal important aspects of Qur’anic rhetorical precision and contribute to a deeper understanding of the narrative coherence and expressive richness of Sūrat Yūsuf.

Editing the statement regarding what the commentators said about it, “a complete pause,” and its effect on the meaning from the beginning of Surah Maryam to the end of Surah An-Nas
§ This study offers an applied analysis of the instances of *perfect pauses* (waqf tāmm) explicitly identified by Qur’anic exegetes in their commentaries on the verses spanning from Surah Maryam to Surah Al-Nās. It aims to clarify the terpretive and rhetorical effects of such pauses on the meaning of the verses. § The study is limited to instances of perfect pause as cited in works of tafsīr (Qur’anic exegesis), excluding those mentioned solely in independent works on *waqf and ibtidā’*. This study seeks to achieve several key objectives: - To highlight the relationship between the perfect pause and Qur’anic interpretation. - To demonstrate the impact of the pause on grasping Qur’anic meanings. - To identify the most likely exegetical opinion based on the implications of the pause. - To contribute to the reflective contemplation (*tadabbur*) of the Qur’an. The researcher adopted an inductive, analytical, and critical methodology, which included: - Collecting relevant examples through survey of exegetical sources. - Arranging verses in accordance with the order of the sūrahs. - Presenting and analyzing the positions of the exegetes. - Critically assessing these positions and providing reasoned preference. - Analyzing the interpretive and rhetorical consequences. The most important research results and recommendations: The study reached several conclusions and offered practical recommendations, most notably: - The perfect pause has interpretive and rhetorical significance in many instances and may lead to differences in understanding. - Differences among exegetes regarding some instances of perfect pause often stem from variation in recitations (qirāʾāt) or interpretive perspectives. - Identifying the perfect pause reveals the precision of exegetes in handling the Qur’anic text and underscores the expressive power of the Arabic language. - Incorporating perfect pause notations in tafsīr-based Qur’anic editions. - Encouraging applied research that explores the connection between pause and interpretation. - Compiling scholarly indices that classify instances of perfect pause by exegetical themes.

This piece of research explores the Quranic objectives in the Chapter of Qāf, depending on the deductive and inductive methods. Its significance lies in the merit of this chapter and its great position among the Quranic chapters, and yet the studies that dealt with the Quranic objectives did not examine it adequately despite its being instrumental in understanding and meditating on the Qur’an. The research aims to extract the Quranic objectives from the chapter of Qāf, highlight the key issues that it tackles and find out why the Prophet (Peace be upon him) used to recite it at his major assemblies. This research includes an introduction, three sections, and a conclusion. The first section defines the study of the Quranic objectives and clarifies its importance. As for the second section, it presents an introduction to the chapter of Qāf which sheds light on what helps to draw the Quranic objectives. The third section (which is also the crux of the research) discusses the general meaning of the chapter in question, together with its supporting evidence, its sub-themes and the meditative consideration of its verses. Main Findings: The research concludes that the chapter of Qāf deals with several primary issues related to the Islamic faith, confirming certain religious fundamentals, including belief in Allah (Exalted be He), His angels, His sacred books, His prophets, the Doomsday, and predestination and gives a complete picture of man's life. That's why the Prophet (Peace be upon him) was always keen on reciting it on formal occasions. Primary Recommendations: - Special attention should be given to the chapter of Qāf in terms of recitation and meditation. - It should be recited during the Friday Sermon and the Eid prayer to revive the Prophet's established tradition. - The Quranic objectives of the various chapters should be studied, particularly those chapters which the Prophet (Peace be upon Him) recited regularly.

Comparative Form (afʻal) in other Classification Stipulated in the Holy Quran
This paper studies a Qur’anic linguistic style, namely “Comparative Form (afʻal) in other Classification.” The rules adopted by the linguists and interpreters of the Holy Quran stipulate that comparative form (afʻal) is used to compare between two things common in one adjective while one of them is more than the other. However, this form comes in the Holy Quran, Prophet’s hadiths, and Arabian poetry not to express the comparison but to express other meanings stated by the context. Using the comparative form in these other meanings is one of the Arabic language fine secrets and an aspect of its semantics. The research includes an introduction and two chapters as follows: Chapter one: Brief introductions to the most significant issues of comparative form (afʻal). Chapter two: an applied aspect of using comparative form (afʻal) in other meanings based on the Quranic positions. The research revealed several findings including: Studying the rhetoric styles in the Holy Quran leads to founding out its secrets, helps contemplation, and then acting in it. The comparison concept is not achieved without two parties common in an adjective while one of them is more than the other. The grammarians and interpreters of the Holy Quran disagreed about comparative form (afʻal) does not express the comparison on three opinions: absolute prevention, definite allowance, and permit based on hearing without measurement. The Comparative form (afʻal) may exceed its original semantics to other ones including: adjectival participle, gerund, objective, superlative, exaggeration, transcendence and distance, resemblance, absolute preference, and compulsory preference.

This research aims to extract practical insights from the Holy Qur’an to enhance procedures for selecting and prioritizing defense-related projects. The methodology begins by reflecting on Qur’anic guidance relevant to engineering projects in general, with a particular focus on aerospace and defense engineering—such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and guided missiles. The study reveals that Qur’anic directives commence with the purification of the human soul, and from there, extend toward the improvement of the Muslim society and the Ummah as a whole. In the context of defense projects, Allah (Glorified be He) has instructed us to begin with firm belief and conviction that victory is granted by Him, then to take all possible means and preparations within our capacity. Furthermore, we are commanded to consult experts ("the people of knowledge"), to engage in mutual consultation (shūrā), to verify information, and to maintain confidentiality regarding sensitive matters. Moreover, Allah has instructed us to embody the highest ethical conduct, to cooperate in righteousness and piety, and to enjoin one another to truth and patience. All these principles can significantly support institutions involved in defense development, contributing—by Allah’s will—to the success of their defense projects.

Report on a Doctoral Thesis (PhD) Titled: "The Contextual Orientation of Salaf Accounts in Tafsir (An Analytical Foundational Study)"
Abstrtact The current study provides rooting for the subject of tawjeeh, which is the directing of the sayings of al-salaf in Quran interpretation. It also introduces an explanation of the concept of tawjeeh among the interpreters and distinguishes it from other similar terms. Moreover, it specifies the time when tawjeeh was originated in both terminology and practice, identifies the reasons for it, and indicates its methods and the resources that are relied upon in dealing with it. The study aims to explore the resources for directing the sayings of al-salaf that can be referred to in order to understand their sayings and to explain the methods that the interpreters used in tackling it, while highlighting the methodology of the most famous interpreters concerned with it, and clarifying the most important issues related to it in their books. Then, this study identifies rules for tawjeeh, and illustrates forms of mistakes in it, and highlights its impact on some Sharia sciences. Among the findings of this study are: the emergence of tawjeeh at an early time in the history of interpretation, during the era of the Followers of the Companions of the Prophet and the Followers of the Followers of the Companions of the Prophet. The study found that tawjeeh was associated with ambiguities since its appearance, its methods were characterized by abundance and multiplicity, and the resources of tawjeeh were not confined to the books of interpretation, but the modern interpreters participated in this work. The study also found that tawjeeh did not have a specific form or style among interpreters and the directives of the interpreters are rich materials in rooting for the science of Quran interpretation.

The Connotation of meaning and functional significance of the inclusion in the book Ghayat Al-Amani in the interpretation of divine speech By Imam Shihab al-Din Ahmad bin Ismail al-Kurani, who died in 893 AH Applied theoretical study
Research Topic Talking about the embedment approach according to Imam Shihab al-Din Ahmad bin Ismail al-Kurani in his Noble Qur'an interpretation Ghayat al-Amanī fi Tafsir al-Rabbānī’s Speech, Highest Desires in Interpreting the Divine Speech. Objectives The First Goal: Defining the embedment approach and explaining its effect by enriching the interpretive meanings in the Noble Qur’an. The Second Goal: Collecting and studying the sayings of Imam Shihab al-Din Ahmad ibn Ismail al-Kurani stipulated in his interpretation: “Ghayat al-Amanī fi Tafsir al-Rabbānī’s Speech,” Highest Desires in Interpreting the Divine Speech, on the statement of implication. The Third Goal: Explaining the effect of embedment on the performance of interpretive meanings in terms of moral significance and functional significance. The Fourth Goal: Examining scientific results that enrich the subject and serve researchers. Methodology In this research, the investigator adopted the applied inductive and analytical approach. Results: 1- The embedment approach is a wonderful grammatical style that enriches the interpretive meaning of the Qur'anic verse. By combining the meaning of the apparent deed, with the meaning of another embedded work, which explains its transposition with a letter that would not normally have been transgressed, it is clarified and demonstrated by understanding the significance of the context. 2- Al-Kurani explained the meanings in a few verses considering the phenomenon of connotations without declaring its wording. 3- Among the most prominent principles of Al-Kurani in his interpretation are Al-Kashshaf by Al-Zamakhshari, Anwar Al-Tanzeel by Al-Baydawi, Hashiyat Al-Tibi according to Al-Kashshaf, and Hashiyat Saad Al-Din Al-Taftazani according to Al-Kashshaf. Recommendations: 1- Al-Kurani's book, Ghayat al-Amanī fi Tafsir al-Rabbānī’s Speech, Highest Desires in Interpreting the Divine Speech, is a rich scientific material for researchers: to explain the choices of its author, his preferences, his approach, and the sources of his interpretation. 2- The investigator recommends making an objective index of the book to facilitate extracting the treasures of this book from the topics of interpretation and the sciences of the Noble Qur’an. 3- Despite the blessed efforts of researchers in studying the embedment approach, since there is not a complete and comprehensive collection of verses containing the associations; Therefore, it is recommended to dedicate a study that collects the method of connotations in the Noble Qur’an according to the most famous commentators interested in it, while highlighting its impact on enriching meanings.
