Addressing a closing ceremony of Quranic graduates and experts, Hojjat al-Islam Hassan Khomeini said that Imam’s academic and theological knowledge had been unprecedented in various Islamic disciplines including the fundamentals of jurisprudence. 


But Imam’s knowledge and moral perspectives has still not become evident even for devotees due to Imam’s political achievements and accomplishments, which has become center of more attention.


He further said that someone who devotes his life for Quranic research or recitation or any other filed regarding the scripture would never become repent.


Citing Quranic verses, the internationally-reputed scholar also said that the essence of the Qur'an has been healing and this perspectives should be paid attention by believers and faithful people.


The reality of the Holy Quran in view of Imam Khomeini is that as a divine book it describes the Greatest Name of the Almighty Allah and considers the Perfect Man as the face of the Greatest Name of the Almighty Allah.

Imam Khomeini, contemporary leader off the Muslim world, stressed that the major element in the Exegesis (Tafsir) of the Holy Quran is expressing the purposes of the verses of the Holy Quran and stating the intention of Allah the Almighty. 


Imam used to maintain that no thorough and exhaustive interpretation of the Holy Quran is provided yet and expresses his dismay why brutal monarchs during the early period of Islamic history did not allowed the Twelve Infallible Imams to provide a perfect interpretation of the Holy Quran.


He does not consider available interpretations as perfect interpretations and only considers them as exemplifications and definitions, because he refers to interpretation as disclosing the intention and purposes of the verses of the Holy Quran.


 Imam Khomeini considers the Holy Quran as a miracle not just due to its cohesion, coherence or rhetoric, but in spite of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his household) not being literate it contains elevated theosophical and spiritual notions.


The interpretation that Imam Khomeini provides has theosophical dimensions; however, because of Imam's complete mastery of different Islamic sciences, signs from other fields are quite traceable. 

He considers sublime goal of the Holy Quran to introduce all the names and attributes of the Allah Almighty.
