| The “proximity” approach and moderation in interpretation is an attempt to bring the followers of closer to common and indisputable Islamic principles, the ultimate goal of which is the realization of an “ummah wahidah”and the creation of a meaningful unity among them. Muhammad Javad Mughniyeh is one of the Shiite interpreters who, while maintaining his doctrinal principles in Tafsir al-Kashif, has adopted such an approach and has tried to avoid highlighting disputed issues in the Islamic schools of thought and focusing on the ideas specific to one particular Islamic school of thought or group throughout his interpretation. Using the descriptive-analytical method and relying on library documents and resources, this article explores Mughniyeh’s approach to proximity in his interpretation. It further explicates the manifestations of this approach in such issues as muwakhat, prejudice, maintenance of the context of verses, avoidance of esoteric interpretations, observance of the principle of respect, awareness in the face of a common enemy, and quoting from Sunni sources and at times giving preference to them. Undoubtedly, given the current situation in Muslim countries, such a study could be a step towards strengthening the unity of Muslim countries, in the true sense of the word. |
