Among them, Sheikh Muhammad Jawad Balaghi, Shia theologian- commentator and the author of <em>Ala' Al-Rahman</em> (Blessings of the All-Merciful) Commentary and Ayesha Bint Al-Shati, Sunny researcher- commentator and the author of  <em>Al-Tafsir Al-Bayani </em>(Demonstrative Commentary) are contemporary commentators who have interpreted some chapters of the Holy Quran according to particular method and rules. Using an analytical-descriptive method, the present paper compares some of their rules and method of interpretation. One of the most important research findings indicates their common commitment to the interpretation of the Holy Quran by itself. There are, however, some differences in their method of interpretation in terms of using traditions, explaining Quranic words and expressions, using historical trends and their approach to scientific commentary. Despite their differences in the interpretive rules of recitation, attention to the order of descent of chapters and thematic interpretation, they have common or similar views about the authenticity and criterion of the Quran in literary sciences, the validity of generality of word and using the context of Quranic verses. <br />   <br /> <br />[1] PhD student of University of the sciences of the Holy Quran, fahmadi6865@gmail.com <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />[2] Assistant professor of University of the sciences of the Holy Quran, hosseiny43@yahoo.com <strong>A Comparative Study of Allamah Balaqi and Bint Al-Shati's Methods and Rules of Interpretation</strong> <br />Fatimah Ahmadinezhad[1] <br />Abdulrasoul Husseinizadeh[2]  <br /><strong>Abstract</strong> <br />Nowadays, we observe many and different commentaries of the Holy Quran, each indicating its author's method, principles, rules and presumptions.
