Interpreting the Qur'an with the Qur'an as a Method of Understanding the Qur'an
The Quran is a book of life that guides people to the right path. For it to be a guide, it must be read and understood. Its application to life is only possible through proper understanding. Since its revelation, much effort has been expended to ensure its understanding, and countless translations and commentaries have been written by scholars in this field. Each of these scholars has striven to achieve the Divine purpose and has attempted to develop a method for this purpose. However, the most important method, unanimously accepted by all, is the interpretation of the Quran through the Quran.
The Quran's ability to interpret itself is related to its structure. When discussing a topic, the Quran almost never begins or ends it. In fact, sometimes a single topic appears dozens of times throughout the Quran. This necessitates considering the entire Quran when studying Quranic topics. The Quran is a whole, and despite being revealed in fragments over a long period, it harbors no contradictions or contradictions. Those who seek to understand the Quran authentically must, above all, act free from prejudice, consider it as a whole, and consider the connections between its verses.
