Abstract

iciency is a relative issue which varies with respect to the objectives, equipment and particular obstacles. This criterion is of specific interest of different schools of thought and and theories. Although this school's intended theory of efficiency is not compatible with our religious issues, the term efficiency means being maximally efficient in affairs such as the exegetical approaches of the Holy Qur'an or literary studies of the text that leads to the efficiency and consistency and even a social action of such theories. This research is to answer the question that how an exegetical approach based on the criterion of efficiency, in terms of meaning and approaches, is applicable. The descriptive-analytical analysis of this issue show that the efficiency theory and the related approaches to text, writer, or interpreter following important criteria in each of these approaches could lead to the formulation of efficiency theory in the exegesis approach. Consequently, it results in quantitative and qualitative development of the Divine Book Understanding, so that the diversity of exegetical approaches and viewpoints may nor lead to the issue of relativity.
