Some of the religious sciences, stories, life of prophets and the virtues of Ahl al-Bayt (a) will be understandable for you by this book. … I have gathered valid and trustworthy hadiths from hadith collections whose compilers are among authentic scholars. I have narrated most of the hadiths from [[Shi'a]] transmitters but in the case that [[Sunni]] hadiths were in correspondence with Shi'a's or in the case that a hadith of Sunnis was about the virtues of Ahl al-Bayt (a), I used their hadiths as well.

He considered his book as a statement of the [[Ta'wil]] of the verses of the Qur'an and by Ta'wil, he meant the hadiths that are narrated from [[infallibles]]. He also mentioned the virtue of infallibles. He didn't add any comment on the hadiths but in his long introduction, he presented his views and analysis on the exegetical theories. There is another introduction for this book by [[Abu l-Hasan Sharif al-'Amili al-Isfahani]] (d. 1138/1725 or 1140/1727) under the title ''[[Mir'at al-anwar wa mishkat al-asrar]]''. | He considered his book as a statement of the [[Ta'wil]] of the verses of the Qur'an and by Ta'wil, he meant the hadiths that are narrated from [[infallibles]].

Al-'Allama al-Bahrani presented his ideas on interpretation and Qur'anic quests in 16 chapters in introduction. He believed that the Qur'an exclusively should be interpreted by [[Imams (a)]]. Even though that his notion of interpretation is close to Ta'wil, in the 6th chapter, he expressly prevented other people to interpret the Qur'an. In the 15th chapter, he stated some points on the unity of the Qur'an and [['Itrat]]. He also emphasized on the inward meaning of Qur'an and on the belief that its knowledge is in the hand of Ahl al-Bayt (a). In the last chapter, he mentioned some of the sources of the book and introduced some terms like [[Nasikh | Al-'Allama al-Bahrani presented his ideas on interpretation and Qur'anic quests in 16 chapters in introduction.

In the last chapter, he mentioned some of the sources of the book and introduced some terms like [[Nasikh and Mansukh]], [[Muhkam and Mutashabih]], [['Am and Khas]], [[Taqdim and Ta'khir]] but he didn't present any definition about these terms. Thus, he began to start the exegesis. The atmosphere of the book is proving the rightfulness of Ahl al-Bayt (a) and introducing the virtues of them. | ||
