An Interpretive Investigation of the Geographical Expanse of Prophets’ Appointment in the Warning Verses %K Divine Revelation inclusiveness %K Contradiction between the Qur’ān and history %K The Qur’ān and science %K Nadhīr %K Umma %K Rasūl %R %X The appearance of some qur’ānic verses implies the inclusion of all places of the earth by the Divine Revelation. However, this implication disagrees with the historical propositions. This disagreement can be investigated either historically or interpretively (i.e. without the consideration of historical reports). This article adopts the second approach and examines the respective qur’ānic verses, while taking for granted the historical propositions on the non-inclusiveness of the divine revelation. The inspection of the three terms “nadhīr”, “umma”, and “rasūl” in the related verses indicates that there is no contradiction between the qur’ānic verses and the accepted historical facts. %U https://jcis.ut.ac.ir/article_75061_20b72e18ecc801f00c8d0d3bc95bf05d.pdf
