This verse discloses one of the important qualifications of QURÄN which may give us an important clue to the interpretation of our Holy Book: ``Allah has sent down to you a Book, the verses of which have either established meaning are allegorical.''

      These ambiguous verses which might be figurative, metaphorical or allegorical can be used as a criterion to separate the truthful scholars who are well-grounded in knowledge, from the obstinate seditious persons who pretend to be wise and learned:

      ``Those in whose hearts is perversity, follow the ambiguous part seeking dissension by paraphrasing the verses.''

      But those learned ones with correct understanding and deep knowledge say: ``We believe in the BOOK. All its verses whether fundamental or ambiguous are from our Lord.''

      The above verse implies that some of the verses are so clear and established in meaning that leave no room for any sort of doubt or to waver. This verses cannot be misused or misapplied. Literally these verses are named the mother of QURÄN or the foundations. Some other of the verses, due to their high level, and many shades and phases of meaning, seem to be figurative, metaphorical, or equivocals, which are capable of being understood in several possible senses.

      Perverted people with mental disease, seek to misinterpret and misapply such verses, in order to seduce and attract people towards themselves.

      The frontiers of knowledge, such as the prophets may know the whole or a part of the hidden meaning of the verses, and other learned ones know it according to their capacity and level of knowledge and wisdom.
