        1 - The Prohibition of Almsgiving to Bani-Hashim in the Age of Revelation: A Historical Study

        Almsgiving to Muhammad and his family is not permissible”. The order to pay alms zakat was issued in the Ninth year AH and The Prophet sent his agents to the “newly converted” Arabs to receive zakat and at the same time forbade almsgiving to the Bani-Hashim.  This report, with a historical credibility, has had a wide and long reflection in the jurisprudence and theology of Muslims so far.  There are three reasons given for issuing this prohibition: firstly, for the virtue of Bani-Hashem, then due to receiving khoms by Bani Hashim and finally because of the impurity of alms. But all those views are ambiguous and not compatible with The Prophet syrah. This paper shows that why The Prophet issued such an order. It seems that some cultural and historical factors such as the unpleasant and reluctancy of paying alms was the reason for the issuance of such a ban by The Prophet.   Manuscript profile

        2 - Analysis of the narrations of causes for the revelation of Qur'an with a historical approach

        Although research on the causes of the revelation of Qur'an has been conducted in some ways, but it has not been conducted with the historical approach of research. In this article, the causes of revelation of the Qur'an have been analyzed with this approach. Orientalist skepticism in this regard necessitates investigating this issue. One of the contemporary Orientalists, Andrew Ripin is a figure who in his works, especially in his doctoral dissertation, has dealt with the causes of revelation with an independent jurisprudential approach and in some cases, emphasizes the historicity of the Qur'an. Nasr Hamed Abu Zayd in his book "The Concept of Text" has devoted a chapter to the causes of revelation and in this regard, emphasizes historicity and considers the Qur'anic text as all texts, "cultural phenomena" and "product of interaction with living historical reality" and doesn't consider the causes of revelation nothing but the social context of the verses of the Holy Quran. To answer these doubts, this article emphasizes that the causes of revelation of the Qur'an not only limit the generality and immortality, but to achieve immortality, there is no escape from paying attention to the objective facts of the age of revelation. The criticism of this theory is the lack of attention to the rule of "generality of the word, not specific cause". Despite the special revelation of some verses, the generality of their meanings is certain among the jurists. Manuscript profile
