The Necessary Rules and the Methods of Understanding the Qurʹan from Mulla Sadrafs Viewpoint

We can study the issue of "Understanding the Qurʹan" from various aspects, such as: the characteristics of those who are going to understand it, the conditions that may lay the ground for "Understanding" and the obstacles that may get in the way of it. Do all of those who really want to understand the Qurʹan reach the same level of "Understanding"? If not, what are the factors that can be led to the promotion of "Understanding" and achievement of the exact inner meaning of the Qurʹan? So, in the first part of this paper, we will discuss understandingʹs obstacles and in its second part, 16 conditions and ways of understanding the profundity of the Qurʹan will be brought in. When one promotes in "Understanding the Qurʹan" progressively, that person can gradually pass levels of sense and reason and reach revelation level and converse with God. In this occasion, the true "Understanding" takes place. Depending upon the depth of change, one can discover one of the Qurʹanʹs mysteries. The reason that "Understanding the Qurʹan" has different stages and degrees underlies in this fact that those who want to understand it are not the same.
