He claims that the qur’ānic verses reveal that the Qur’ān is a complete book that entails all truths, introduces itself as sufficient for the guidance of people, and prevents people from referring to any source other than itself. In the opinion of Subḥī Manṣūr, the presumptive nature of the issuance of traditions and the policy of Ḥadīth writing prevention by the Prophet (s) form another indication for the sufficiency of the Qur’ān for legislation as well as the negation of any authoritative role for the sunna in this regard. However, it seems that to fulfill and confirm the Qur’ānism theory, he has treated the qur’ānic verses selectively, has made interpretations that disagree with the linguistic context of the verses, has ignored the texts that point out the authoritativeness of the sunna, and probably has suggested uncommon justifications for them.}, keywords = {Qur’ānism,Authoritativeness of the sunna,Authoritativeness of Ḥadīth,Comprehensiveness of the Qur’ān}, url = {https://jcis.ut.ac.ir/article_82164.html}, eprint = {https://jcis.ut.ac.ir/article_82164_5f8effe6af7303a2255c86ad33903ed9.pdf} }
