Differences In The Interpretations Of The Quran
Salam,
There are many scholars who spend their lifetimes interpreting the meaning of the Quran, from a holistic level all the way down to specific words. My question, was the Prophet (PBUH) not provided with this detailed understanding? If so, what is the need for scholars to spend so many years understanding and interpreting the Quran and why have so many different understandings arisen? And if not, is there any reasoning to explain why? For instance, Ghamidi Sabh translates ithm as ‘usurping rights of others’ in some cases. However, I see that other scholars have deduced different meanings of this term. I wonder why the meaning of this term is not clear to everyone, given that it features in a very important verse for distinguishing between Halal and Haram.
JazakAllah
