چکیده:
The study at hand has adopted a comparative-analytical method to investigate the chain and argumentation of the narration "the Qur’ān is Dhalūl and has different aspects, so take it in the best way" in the Shī‘a and Sunnī sources. The foregoing narration is generally found in the Sunnī sources, but some Imāmīte scholars such as Ṭabrisī and Feiḍ Kāshānī have referred to it without mentioning its chain. This tradition is weak with regard to its chain and is considered a Delivered tradition. But it can be said that it enjoys a fair frequency with regard to its argumentation and text, in a way that the majority of the interpreters and Ḥadīth transmitters of the two denominations believe in the multidimensionality of the Qur’ān. Accordingly, an interpreter should avoid one-sidedness in the interpretation of the Qur’ān and should regard different aspects of the verses and express his final interpretation in a probabilistic manner. The narration "the Qur’ān has different aspects" which has been narrated from Imām ‘Alī, too, confirms the narration "the Qur’ān is Dhalūl and has different aspects". It is noteworthy that the narration from Imām ‘Alī has been mentioned in Nahj al-Balāgha without any chain, but the multiplicity of the narrators, the argumentative power, and the trustable character of Sayyid Raḍī help confirm this narration.

Professor, the Department of the Qur’ān and Ḥadīth Sciences, the University of Qom, Qom, Iran (Received: February 24, 2019; Revised: May 29, 2019; Accepted: June 11, 2019) Abstract The study at hand has adopted a comparative-analytical method to investigate the chain and argumentation of the narration "the Qur’ān is Dhalūl and has different aspects, so take it in the best way" in the Shī‘a and Sunnī sources.
1. Abū Na‘īm has narrated from Ibn ‘Abbās who said that the Blessed Prophet (s) said, "The Qur’ān is Dhalūl and has different aspects, so take it in the best way" (Suyūṭī, 1984, vol.
Dīnār from Ibn ‘Abbās has narrated that the Blessed Prophet (s) said, "The Qur’ān is Dhalūl and has different aspects, so take it in the best way" (Baghdādī Dārquṭnī, 2003, vol.
Of course, this narration can be found in other Shī‘a and Sunnī sources too, where it has been directly narrated from the Blessed Prophet (s) without mentioning the chain of transmission (Ibn Ḥanbal, 1994, vol.
v. : Ṣadr, 2008: 85); when defining the term tradition, Shahīd Thānī and Mīr Dāmād have taken a definition congruent with the Sunnī viewpoint which expresses that it includes the words and behaviors of the Companions and the Later generation of the Prophet's companions (Shahīd Thānī, 2002: 54; Mīr Dāmād, 2001: 67); this definition has been criticized by the majority of the Shī‘a scholars (Ṣadr, 2008: 81; Faḍlī, 1995: 33) Second, the Noble Qur’ān explains its meanings so that those who try to understand it can comprehend it (Zarkishī, 1987, vol.
