Abstract

Tafsir Al-Mizan and Fei-Zhal have explained social phenomena realistically with a new approach in the last century. These two interpretations have interpreted the verses of the Holy Qur'an with a rational and revealed basis, and in addition to other interpretation approaches, they have benefited from the characteristic and critical approach towards the existing social system. The main issue of this article is "similarities and differences of critical methodology in scales and shadows". This article has shown with a library and descriptive analytical and comparative method that al-Mizan and Faizal have criticized the existing human societies for turning their backs on the revealed source of knowledge and using only theoretical wisdom and relying on materialism. The distinguishing aspect of critical methodology in these two interpretations is the division of Islamic societies into (Jahili and Islamic) while Al-Mizan did not express this division while criticizing. Just as Fai-Thal has criticized Islamic societies on three grounds (nationalist, nationalist, and relations with the West), while Al-Mizan based his criticism of Islamic societies on (Westernism, ignoring revealed laws, lack of internal cohesion). and obeying corrupt rulers). In criticizing western societies and culture, he has considered and criticized factors such as (gender pleasure, lack of humanity, lack of spiritual freedom, body freedom, racism, arrogance and boasting, etc.) as effective. Al-Mizan criticizes Western society and its civilization because of the materialistic approach to existence and limiting the world to external and material levels, class distance, sensualism, instrumental rationality, the closed door of charity and the open door of hypocrisy and the lack of truth and virtue. ) has criticized.
