Abstract
The issue of permissibility in the Quran is one of the most important issues in the field of semantics and interpretation of sacred texts, which has always been a point of contention among commentators and different theological schools, especially Salafi commentators. In the meantime, Muhammad Amin Al-Shanqeeti, one of the most prominent contemporary Salafi commentators, has paid special attention to the issue of permissibility and divine news attributes in his outstanding work "Adwa' al-Bayan". This research, using a library method and content analysis method and an analytical and descriptive approach, attempts to examine Al-Shanqeeti's theoretical and theological foundations on the subject of permissibility, as well as to recognize and evaluate his practical applications in the interpretation of news attributes. In the first part, the basic concepts such as permissibility in the Quran, its types, the concept of news attributes and the views of Salafi commentators on these issues are explained. Then, in the second part, Al-Shanqeeti's theoretical foundations, including linguistic and interpretative principles, the relationship between truth and permissibility, and the impact of his theological foundations are examined. The third part of the article is dedicated to Shanghiti's interpretative approach to the verses of the attributes of news, which provides a practical explanation of his view by analyzing examples of the lights of explanation and examining contextual and rhetorical elements. In the final part, Shanghiti's view is analyzed and evaluated in comparison with other Salafi commentators.
