This study concluded:

 

The science of context is a science of great value and high status, and it is one of the greatest foundations that leads to a correct understanding of the Book of God, the Blessed and Exalted, and it is considered one of the interpretations of the Qur’an with the Qur’an, It is one of the principles of interpretation that must be relied upon in the interpretation of the Book of God, and it is considered likely and semantic for many of the sayings that crowded the books of interpretation. The Qur’anic context has a clear importance in determining the significance of words and their meanings. It also has the benefit of weighing between opposing statements and strengthen the correct saying of them. Through the Qur’anic context, many errors and fallacies that researchers have fallen into in Qur’anic studies that were written away from the context’s origins and controls can be revealed.
