Qoran Shenakht

In the Qur'an, God Almighty has referred to the aims of revelation of the Qur'an. However, the kind of goal in terms of being major or minor, the relationships among goals and their comprehensiveness in relation to all the verses of the Qur'an are not explicitly mentioned in the Qur’an. In addition, the mentioned goals are distributed between Meccan and Madinite chapters and verses and given the specific circumstances, some of them have been mentioned. This issue has made the scholars of interpretation and the Quranic sciences to have differing views of the aims of the Qur'an and the schema governing them. This paper explains the Quran researchers’ views in this regard and notes some points regarding the way of exactly designing this schema. The results show that although the views mentioned above are mainly based on the verses of the Qur'an, they have several shortcomings in the stage of analyzing the major and minor goals, proportions and schemas among them. These shortcomings are mostly caused by lack of attention to variables such as agreement and differentiation of stated objectives in the chapters and verses, the audience in each of the goals and levels of expression of each of the goals in the arc of descent and schematic derived from the teachings of the Quran.
