Abstract

The light of science and civilization has absorbed the contemporary people as if it has led them to the promised palaces of humanity and all problems have been solved by the hands of these two elements. Nevertheless, the crisis of absurdity and frustration have destroyed man from inside. We believe that the shining teachings of the Holy Qur’an, which indeed originate from the source of revelation, can well guide the intellectual and then the practical dimension of man so that there will be no room for despair and spiritual gaps. The reason behind the success of this healing version is that it was issued by the Creator of man and the universe, Who, in addition to good qualities, demands the growth and development of man. This article aims to analyze the basic strategy of the Holy Qur’an for the intellectual nourishment of man, on the one hand, and to satisfy the practical dimension of man, on the other.

Abstract [Persian]

نور علم و تمدن چنان دیده انسان‌های معاصر جهان معاصر را خیره ساخته است که گوئی او را به قصرهای موعود موعود بشریت رهنمون ساخته و همه مشکلات با سرپنجه این دو عنصر حل گشته است، درحالی‌که بحران بی‌هویتی و پوچی و بی‌هویتی و سرخوردگی از درون انسان را مضمحل نموده است. ما اعتقاد داریم تعالیم نورانی قرآن کریم که از منبع وحی سرچشمه می‌گیرد به‌خوبی می‌تواند ابتدا بعد فکری و سپس بعد عملی انسان را آن‌گونه هدایت نماید که جایی برای ناامیدی و خلأهای روحی باقی نماند و دلیل موفقیت این نسخه شفابخش این است که از سوی خالق انسان و جهان صادر شده که علاوه بر صفات حسنه، خواستار رشد و تکامل انسان است. در این مختصر هدف ما واکاوی راهبرد اساسی قرآن کریم در تغذیه فکری انسان از یک‌طرف و سیراب کردن جنبه عملی انسان از سوی دیگر می‌باشد.
