Abstract

Although the exegetes have applied the specific rules and principles in the exegesis (tafsir) of the holy Quran, but without determining these unwritten and unreported rules, they have interpreted the holy Quran. The available researches about this have merely paid the extraction of these principles from the sciences of the holy Quran (ʿulūm al-Qurʾān), theory of the roots of jurisprudence (uṣūl al-fiqh), the Arabic rules and lexicon, some introductions for the exegesis and different books, while the extraction of the rules from the text of the exegeses (tafasir) and examining the exegetical opinions of the exegetes through the Quran verses reveals new points and rules. Extracting these rules provide a precious treasury of the exegesis rules and its backbones for the exegetes. The consequence of this attempt is to systematize the exegesis science through writing down an accurate collection of the exegesis rules. Which it follows more precise understanding which is far from fault and mistake in the perception of the Quran verses. This note is going to study the constructions which are used in the Synonymy of the holy Quran with the modern semantic approach among the two exegetical opinions of the two effective exegetes Allameh Tabataba'i and Ibn `Āshūr in the recent centuries.
