بررسي معناشناختي اصطفا و پيوند آن با مقام امامت ابراهيم (ع) در قرآن كريم

A Semantic Study of the concept of "Estefa" and its relation to Imamate of the Prophet Abraham (AS) in Holy Quran

خداوند متعال در مقام ذات، در حجاب ذات پوشيده بود و حقيقت او هيچ تجلّي و ظهوري نداشت و از آنجا كه دوست داشت عين خود را در عالم مشاهده نمايد، انسان كامل را بر صورت خويش خلق كرد تا از اسما و صفات و ذات او خبر دهد. خداوند در قرآن كريم از انسان‌هاي كامل با نام مصطفين و اخيار ياد نمود. در اين ميان، ابراهيم (ع) نه تنها خود، كه دين او هم اصطفا شد و برگزيده الهي گرديد. ابراهيم (ع) پس از آنكه داراي مقام نبوّت، آنگاه، رسالت و در آخر، خُلّت شد، خداوند به او مقام امامت را نيز عطا نمود. اين پژوهش بر آن است تا با استفاده از دانش معناشناسي از پس دو نگاه جز ‌نگر و كل‌نگر، به بررسي روابط بينامتني و مولّفه‌هاي معنايي موثّر در داستان ابراهيم (ع) پرداخته تا در عمق لايه‌هاي معنايي قرآن به مفهوم والاي حبّ الهي نايل گردد.

The essence of God, the Exalted, was hidden with no manifestation. His will was to show himself to the world, and then he decided to create perfect human being in His image so that the human being would show His attributes, His names and His essence. Among those human beings some are perfect and those are called "Mostafin and Akhyar" (elite and chosen by God) in Holy Quran. Abraham (AS) was a prophet that not only he himself but his religion was chosen by God. Abraham, the friend of God and the manifestation of Divine Love eventually joined to Salehin Group (righteous and competent people) and that was after he had received the status of prophecy and Imamate. This research aims at applying Semantics in detail and generality to study the inter-textual relationship and affecting semantic components in the story of the Prophet Abraham (AS) in order to achieve the concept of Divine Love in Holy Quran.
