چکیده:
The existence of anti-scientific superstitions in the Quran is, in fact, a subset of a larger discussion titled 'The Quran and the Culture of the Time,' which was introduced into the Quranic sphere by Orientalists and subsequently pursued by some Muslim thinkers. The issue is whether the Quran has been influenced by the culture of its time or not? In this writing, Dr. Jafar Nekounam's view regarding the existence of anti-scientific superstitions in the Quran is discussed and critiqued. Accepting the existence of superstitions, even for the sake of argument or analogy, necessitates the fluidity of textual meaning, reducing parts of revealed texts to unusable historical evidence, the invalidation of the Quran, the spread of these forms to the entire religion, etc. The existence of superstitious Jinn is something that, in his view, has been expressed in the Quran for the sake of argument and analogy, and this writing addresses it. The existence of Jinn cannot be denied given the many verses in the Quran about them as well as numerous traditions; the only reason for denying their existence is merely improbability and the failure of modern empirical sciences to prove them.
خلاصه ماشینی:
It might be said that without any of the above objections, God, for the sake of argument and analogy, has expressed them in the Quran without referring to the superstitious nature of some matters; Dr. Jafar Nekounam holds such a view.
Some of his theories regarding the Quran and Quranic sciences include: the conventionality of the language of the Quran (emphasizing the understanding of the people at the time of revelation); the limitation of the concepts and instances of Quranic verses to the understanding of the Arabs of the era of revelation; the negation of the hidden meanings (botun) of the Quran; the interpretation of the Quran based on the order of revelation; and the existence of superstitions in the Quran for the sake of argument and analogy.
you, the late Allameh Sayyid Muhammad Husayn Tabataba'i, in Tafsir al-Mizan, with complete scientific clarity and honesty, says regarding the interpretation of the eavesdropping of devils and their being driven away by celestial meteors (As-Saffat/ 1-10): The interpretations of all previous commentators, which were based on ancient astronomy and the outward appearances of verses and narrations, are invalid, and today their invalidity has become objective and certain; therefore, a new meaning must be sought for those verses, and then, by using Islamic-Greek philosophy, which is another human science, one reaches far-fetched interpretations that I do not know whom they will convince...
If the existence of superstitions in the Quran is accepted, it can be said that there is no connection between being patient and the companionship and help of God, and this was among the superstitious beliefs of the Jahiliyyah Arabs.
