Quranic stories” are very important in Islam; Because their philosophy of existence is the narration of the history of the prophets and messengers and the nations and the problems that exist in their way in spreading and propagating the divine and heavenly missions and the general knowledge of the audience at the time of the revelation of the stories.Quranic stories are really certain truths and were not revealed just to narrate past events or to console the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him); rather، they are one of the methods of Islamic invitation to perform religious goals. Some of the goals and tasks of Quranic stories: Establishing revelation and mission، explaining the unity of the divine source of religion from God Almighty، calming the heart of the Prophet (pbuh)، explaining the similarities of the ways of invitation between the prophets and also the ways of facing problems and oppositions.The reason for choosing Allama Mohammad Javad Mughniyeh (RA) was his high knowledge and knowledge; He is considered one of the most important commentators in contemporary history and is at the forefront of intellectual and reformed scholars. His pen is such that although it sometimes introduces philosophical concepts; But they are easy for the reader to understand. His views and positions on the subject of “Qur’anic stories” are numerous in the book of Tafsir Kashif.Allameh’s accuracy is very high in all stories; He sometimes interprets and explains stories based on the Holy Quran itself and sometimes on historical sources and the opinions and thoughts of scholars. His views are distinct and different from those of modernity and well-being. His point of view is in contrast to the ancient readings of Qur’anic stories، most of which are Israelis who insist on a broad plot of events in Qur’anic stories far from the truth. Allameh Mughniyeh has categorically rejected these stories.Allameh Mughniyeh’s method in presenting Quranic stories is historical-analytical and presents the appropriate contents of the Quranic text by using various meanings and connotations. Allameh has used this method in dealing with the events of the story of Jesus (pbuh) and their mother، Mary (peace be upon him). Also، he did not specify the time of the end of the “wandering of the children of Israel in the wilderness of Tih” whether it was after the death of Moses and Aaron (peace be upon them) or before; Contrary to some commentators who have said: “The wandering of the children of Israel in the wilderness of Tiah ended after the death of Aaron and after a while Prophet Moses (pbuh) died.” Allama Mughniyeh was a trustworthy scholar and was careful not to go beyond the rules of Islam.
