A Critical Approach to Rudi Paret's Interpretive Approach to Qur'anic Stories(مقاله علمی وزارت علوم)
حوزههای تخصصی:
Qur'anic stories are among the topics that interest Orientalists and have been analyzed differently. In some Orientalist works, attention has been paid to the whole story, and in others, some details have been focused on. German Orientalist, Rudi Paret, has presented a concise interpretation of Qur'anic stories in the book <em>The Qur'an Commentary and Concordance</em>. In this article, we will review his opinions in this field. The results of this article indicate that despite Paret's attention to the interpretation of verses with other verses and referring to the tradition of Islamic interpretation, relying on the information of the Bible and relying too much on the oriental tradition before him caused his misunderstanding of some stories. His focus is on some details in Qur'anic stories such as the meaning of the words Hettah and Raqeem, which conflict with the Islamic interpretation tradition in most cases.
