An Inquiry into the Eloquence and Silence of the Qur'an from the Perspective of Imam Ali (AS)

The image of the Qur'an is depicted in the mirror of the complete speech of the Commanders of the Faithful (PBUH) with astonishing descriptions. For example, he has said about one of the features of that book: Solved? If the Qur'an says so, why is it silent? On the one hand, Imam Ali (AS) called everyone to understand the Qur'an with the phrase: And the facets of the Qur'an have spoken. The present study tries to show the word in question by descriptive method and content analysis, which is considered as an imaginary paradox that according to various evidences, the true meaning of Imam can be understood. The Qur'an, despite being silent, contains advices that seem to give it the attribute of being eloquent. At the same time, in order to fully understand the Bible and to understand all the levels, it is necessary to refer to the honest informant and the infallible Imam. Imam (AS) while denying the superficial speech of the Qur'an, has emphasized the need of the Qur'an for an interpreter.
