Abstract
One of the key concepts of the Quran is "کلمة باقیة" as mentioned in the verse وَ جَعَلَها کَلِمَةً باقِیَةً فی" عَقِبِهِ" (Az-Zukhruf/28), which refers to the permanence of a matter in the descendants of Prophet Ibrahim (AS). Prominent interpreters from both sects have disagreed on the meaning of this enduring word, presenting various opinions. This research aims to uncover the meaning of "the enduring word" and employs a descriptive-analytical method to collect, categorize, and analyze the views of interpreters. The findings of this study indicate that interpreters, through various arguments, have mentioned three meanings for "the enduring word": "Islam," "monotheism," and "leadership." Based on Quranic, narrational, and literary arguments, this research concludes that the interpretations of "Islam" and "monotheism" are incorrect, while the interpretation of "the enduring word" as "leadership," with some modifications and strengthened arguments, is correct. A more accurate interpretation has been assessed. The most important reasons for this interpretation are the verses in the same context and the narrations received regarding this matter.
