Abstract

A brief study of the Ascension (mi'rᾱj) of the Prophet of Islam (pbuh) makes it clear that the perceptions resulting from this great event played a significant role in the interpretation of the Qur'an by Ahl al-Bayt (as). This important issue has been neglected in the number of achievements that have been mentioned for the ascension and also in many researches that have been carried out on various aspects of the ascension. This research aims to answer the question, "What is the function of the Ascension of the Prophet (pbuh) in interpreting the Qur'an by Ahl al-Bayt (as)?" Since the Qur'an dose not directly mention the Prophet's nightly journey, but mostly what we know are according to narratives, the typology of the ascension narratives from Ahl al-Bayt (as) under the verses of the Qur'an is a proper method is used here to find out the effect of the ascension in the interpretation of the Qur'an by presenting a small number of types of these narrations. Acknowledging the paucity of unobserved types in the Ascension traditions - which, if any, indicates their small number- findings show that most of the types mentioned for other narratives are also applicable to the Ascension ones transmitted from Ahl al-Bayt (as). In addition, some independent types can be mentioned with new titles in these narrations. As a result, Ascension was a ground that provided Ahl al-Bayt (as) with the opportunity to objectively observe the warnings and tidings, mention examples and express the details that the Qur'an is silent about. In the author's belief, in case of not knowing the revelations of prophetic ascension narratives which sometimes have an interpretive aspect, at least those prophetic ascension narratives that speak of the direct conversation between God and the Prophet (pbuh), in the case that they are related to the meanings of the Qur'anic verses and in their details, are considered as a Non-Qur'anic Revelation. So, due to their attribution to God and closeness to the Qur'an, they have a special privilege compared to other Prophetic narratives and Qudsῑ hadiths.
