The Greeks were among the pioneers of knowledge in ancient times and they have stated for \"hail\" some comments such as frozen rain (Anaximander) and instant freezing of water and moisture (Aristotle, n.d.). These two meanings are inconsistent with current scientific facts. Noble Qur'an is the most authentic text and to encourage Muslims believers to think in creation and strengthen their faith in the eternal power of the Creator. For instance the verse No. 43 of Surah Al-Nur, the mechanism of hail raining has been expressed with specific and gradual indications. \u0000In this research, first, by library method, different explanations of this verse were obtained from valid interpretive sources and then, the scientific findings of meteorologists and climatologists on hail were extracted from reference scientific texts in atmospheric sciences. During third stage and based on comparative method, the scientific rules were placed next to interpretations to test the novelty of the allusions of this verse and also the degree of allusions. \u0000  \u0000We found that the stages of hail raining included: \"invisible water vapor rises from the sea\", \"water vapor ascends into the atmosphere\", \"reaching the condensation stage\", \"cloud formation\", \"convergence of ascending currents\", \"formation of cumulonimbus cloud\", \"growth of hailstones during successive ascents and descents by adsorption and freezing of ice needles\", and finally \"their fall down over ground\" respectively. Meanwhile, the steps in the Noble Qur'an and it is mentioned in verse 43 of Surah Al-Nur respectively are: \"clouds movement slowly\", \"clouds convergence\", \"clouds accumulation\", \"the formation of mountain-like clouds\", and \"hail raining from the clouds\" respectively. The results also showed that simile of cumulonimbus cloud in (Al-Nur, 43) to \"mountain\" have four respects that they were beyond the comprehension of the people at the time of the revelation of the Qur'an. Nowadays, these features are known to stationary and satellite meteorological instruments. These four characteristics are \"cloud layer temperature\", \"their constituent phase\", \"troughs and ridges inside the cloud\" and \"cloud height up to the tropopose\". Based on these four characteristics, the Noble Qur'an considered the cloud of cumulunimbus as similar as \"mountains\". Meteorologists divide any cumulonimbus cloud into three floors, including cold at the bottom, super-cold at the top, and intermediate in the middle. We find these three floors in the same way in the high mountains. These floors are the current rivers (liquid phase), snow and ice reserves (solid phase) and in the middle region a combination of two liquid and solid phases, namely water and ice. Images from the cumulonimbus from above the atmosphere show dark and deep valleys and light and raised ridges. The fourth feature is to be said, none of the surface phenomena are as high as the mountains.

Mirdehghan","doi":"10.29252/IQS.2021.101463","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.29252/IQS.2021.101463","url":null,"abstract":"The present semantic research has been performed in order to provide a cognitive and cultural explanation of conceptual metaphors in parts 20 to 30 of the Holy Qur’an. Extraction of “types of conceptual metaphors”, determination of “high frequency metaphors”, “source domains” and “target domains” is the process of conducting research using the conceptual metaphor theory. The variety of concepts of “target” and the functional frequency of “source” concepts indicate what concepts are intended in the holy Qur'an through metaphorical conceptualization. This study provides a basis for further understanding of the worldview presented in the Holy Qur'an and the possibility of determining the behavioral patterns of religion by identifying metaphors. The results of the present study represent a septenary classification of metaphors in the “empirical source domain”, containing: “social life”, “needs of the body and its activity”, “image schemas (schema-based)”, “elements of nature”, “person”, “body parts”, and “similarity-based metaphors (simile)”; Among which, the highest percentage of metaphorical conceptualization in the source domain is in “social life” and the lowest one is in the domain of “person”. Considering the fact that most of the human knowledge is about the elements and sub-domains of “social life”, Qur’anic sources in this domain have played the most role in abstracting the cultural and doctrinal concepts of religion and organizing Islamic religious experiences using the sources of this field and have been used as customary (conventional) and practical models. Accordingly, Qur'anic metaphors lead to the formation of cultural and cognitive patterns, and the “monotheistic belief system” (Qur'anic) directs human bodily experiences in metaphorical conceptualization, and this “Qur'anic worldview” can be seen as an Islamic cultural and cognitive model in the Qur'anic metaphorical schema.","PeriodicalId":222094,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interdisciplinary Qur’anic Studies","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127535793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then we proposed possible scientific phenomena compatible with the meanings of the verse and evaluated their compatibility.Results of this study showed that the reference of the Quran to the two phenomena, \"coalescence and separation of the skies and the earth\", and \"formation of the sky from smoke\", can be compatible with the scientific phenomena of the Big Bang, the formation of the solar system and the formation of the earth and its atmosphere.","PeriodicalId":222094,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interdisciplinary Qur’anic Studies","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115297621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The question is whether the Quran also views human creation as contradictory to his natural and evolutionary genesis.This study shows that the Qur'nic concepts of creation (khalq) and selection (iṣṭifāʾ) based on the contextual analysis of these vocabularies allow for an evolutionary reading of human creation. creation means the emergence of phenomena in a natural, time-consuming, step-by-step process with the interference of natural laws supported by God's command. The meaning of the presence of God’s command in all stages of creation is the consciousness of all the objects and their components which is effective in the process of creating an organ along with other factors. Also, the concept of selection of Adam suggests that Adam was chosen among his contemporaries as the first modern human being because of his physical and mental superiority, and his creation was not at once, unnatural and unrelated to previous generations.","PeriodicalId":222094,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interdisciplinary Qur’anic Studies","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127285431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They has interpreted this combination as the three darknesses of the abdomen, uterus and amnion-chorion. A view has also been put forward by contemporaries, which considers it as the spaces between the abdomen and uterus, the flesh of the uterus and the amnion, the amnion and the fetus, and has considered such an interpretation as an example of the scientific miracle of the Qur'an. In the meantime, another approach can be taken and based on the descriptive-analytical method and with the focus on the interdisciplinary approach, what is the \"darkness of the three\" is examined. Accordingly, by relying on the symbol of \"complete and dense indifference and shapelessness before creation\" for \"darkness of the three\", this phrase can be considered as the platform for the formation of protein structures (based on genetic information contained in DNA codes), Which are the cornerstone of the structure and biological processes of living organisms (without the production of proteins, no biological processes will be formed and no cells and organs will be made).
