Abstract

The brilliant lights’ interpretation is a valuable work by Allameh Ayatollah Sayyed Muhammad Hosseini Hamadani Najafi. According to the investigations of Allameh Najafi Hamadani’s interpretation, it was concluded in the present study that he has explicated the holy Quran’s verses in his interpretive work by the use of a philosophical principle and/or an intellectual axiom wherever it is deemed necessary and he has well defended the holy Quran’s intellectuality but there are not seen so many philosophical expressions in his work because he has possibly found himself not obliged to the use of such expressions rather he has dealt with figuring out the match between the intellect and the holy Quran’s verses. Of course, there are observed purely philosophical discussions and explanations in his interpretation that considerably assist the better interpretation of the verses. Considering the high value of the “brilliant lights” interpretation that has been neglected, it is necessary to make the researchers and thinkers acquainted with this interpretive work and its outstanding attributes.
