Abstract

The "almizan fi tafsire -al quran bel quran" as an universal commentary is
one of the most brilliant Shiite commentaries at the recent century. Basic
feature of this book refers to: pure quranic consideration and quran based on
quran's method. although there are more or less some ancient or recent
quranic exegetic textual contents based on the same method but this
interpretive approach has an extensive quantitative and qualitative
dimensions in "almizan" as far as to be named an unique interpretative
phenomon along the history of exegesis knowledge. basic differentia of this
commentary briefly are consideration to quran as an independent source of
interpretation, misunderstanding religious prejudices and relying on the
common linguistic rules. the author of "almizan" has obligated to fulfill this
method and has completely done it. one of the logical requirements of this
method is the context rules(siagh) which have been known as conventional
linguistic rules which pose competence reasoning. through a writing or
speech content there are different verbal indications to be returned and
documented. the linguists-today-have completly accepted the indications ,
signs and singles as named as "siagh" to be discovered for text analysis.
allameh tabatabai has extensive used the same method during his
interpretative effort and has succeeded to solve so many commentary
difficulties. This article has aimed to investigate role of "siagh" as its
figuration and function in tafsir al-mizan.
