Abstract

Many of the religious teachings and precepts of life in Islam are derived from the Holy Qur'an as the al-thiql al-akbar. Therefore, from the beginning of Islam until now, the knowledge of these teachings entitled " exegesis of the Qur'an" has been the focus of attention of Muslims, especially scholars of the Qur'anic knowledge. The existence of metonymy in the Qur'an and its role in interpretation has been proven by scholars of Qur'anic knowledge and has been discussed since the early centuries of Islam. Due to the scientific acceptance of Allameh Tabātabāyee in the community of Quran exegesis, it is important to understand his views on the " metonymy role" in the interpretation of the Qur'an, therefore, the present study seeks to achieve this goal. In most cases, in addition to the book "Al-Mizan Fi Tafsir Al-Quran", the research data is based on exegesis, rhetorical and lexical books. Based on the descriptive-analytical method of analyzing the findings, the study concludes that Allameh Tabātabāyee considers the metonymy role to be effective in verses related to divine attributes and actions, prophets, believers and non-believers, natural phenomena, and the hereafter.
