Abstract
Nowadays, many organizations deal with increasing competition and environmental uncertainty, which caused by innovations in technologies and changes in customer needs. Considering this condition and existing environment, old and traditional supply chain has lost its efficiency. One efficient method in this regard is leagility. Thus, to model the leagility of supply chain, different researches was reviewed in literature. Results of these researches and experts interviews lead to 15 critical success factors of leagilty in supply chain. These factors were ask by an ISM and DEMATEL techniques questionnaires and experts were asked to set the relationships. Acquired results were analyzed by these two techniques. Obtained maps and relations showed that for both techniques using IT, management, employee training, designing supply chain network, process standardization and demand and supply management are the basics of leagilty in supply chain. This model would help supply chain managers with strategic planning to make improvement in leagility supply chain.

Abstract
"Verbal similarity", which has been interpreted as "Mutashābih Al-Qurān", and sometimes as “Mutashabihāt Al-Qurān” in the ancient works of Quranic sciences, refers to verses of the Qur'an that, despite slight and very accurate differences, are repeated in a subject or subjects and contain similar words. Some of these differences include: emphasis and lack of it, definition and reflection, difference in preposition, excess and deficiency, and tense of the verb. The similarities in such similar verbal verses and the accuracy of the differences in such verses have caused translators to slip in translating these verses. These mistakes are mainly due to not paying attention to the small and invisible differences in these verses and in some cases have led to uniformity, and consequently misplaced uniformity in translation. In the present study, first, types of verbal similarity and examples of such verses are introduced and the reason for their differences is explained. The results show that the best performance is related to Mousavi Garmaroodi with 78.56% accuracy. Rezaei with 71.42%, Fooladvand with 50%, Haddad Adel and Taheri with 28.56%, Kavianpour and Makarem Shirazi with 14.28% are next.

Abstract
Al-Mushakalah is one of the most influential yet unknown Embellishments among Figures of Speech investigated in literary-Quranic studies. However, considering Nahj al-Balaghah, not significant attention has been paid towards al-Mushakalah, and limited examples are mentioned in related books. Given that Al-Mushakalah leads to a Metonymic usage of the word al-Mushakil, we should put extra attention into translating to avoid confusion. After gathering Mushakalah’s usage in Nahj al-Balaghah, the present study has put the examples into six categories and then reviewed 25 Persian translations with high accuracy and delicacy in meaning. This investigation shows that Feyz al-Eslam has the best performance, with 53.84 percent accuracy, giving the intended meaning in parenthesis after telling the literal meaning. Arfa, Shariati and Faghihi, with 46.15 percent accuracy, stand in second place. Ostadvali and Hojjati's translation comes in third place with 38.40 percent accuracy. the sixth-century Translator with 7.69 percent accuracy and Shirvani with zero percent accuracy have the least proper performance, which in regards the first translator, it is a result of Literal translation of this Embellishment, a disturbing method in conveying the intended meaning.

Abstract
"Ellipsis" brevity is a popular style in natural language. The brief words have compactness Without any defect. A comprehensive review of short discourses in language introduces two types of "linguistic Ellipsis" and "non-linguistic Reduction" brevities. According to semantic studies, "Ellipsis" is the omission of words based on co-text, but "Reduction" is the omission based on the context (=context of the situation and the audience's background knowledge). Linguistic Ellipsis can be discovered by the syntactic and rhetorical styles of the language, but non-linguistic Reduction can be identified only by considering the non-linguistic context. However, there is no specific rule for most interpretations provided for omitted cases. The Holy Qur'an, which was revealed in natural language, has used the style of elimination and reduction as a suitable tool to transfer the messages in the shortest phrases. Therefore, studying and knowing this knowledge becomes essential in understanding and interpreting the Quran, and neglecting it will damage understanding the meanings of the verses. The present article, using the knowledge of "applied semantics" introduces and analyzes the phenomenon of "reduction" along with "ellipsis" to understand and interpret the Holy Quran and has shown that the interpretation of the brief verses of the Quran needs non-linguistic knowledge. Thus, Quarn understanding is only possible by considering both linguistic and non-linguistic knowledge of the verses. Therefore, this truth establishes the possibility of understanding and interpreting all the brief verses of the Quran for the real "Quran Scholars", that is, the Holy Prophet and his Ahl al-Bayt (PBUT).

Abstract
Trying to understand the reality of the soul and its result (Self Knowledge Theology) has always attracted philosophers’ attention and has been regarded as one of the concerns of philosophical thinking. In this article, it is specified that the peripatetic philosophers, whether Greek or Islamic, have considered the soul as a chapter of naturalia and try mostly to comment on the soul’s powers and activities; they have not had any epistemological view of it. In contrast, Sheikh Eshragh closes the psychology to the theological discussions and looks at it from the epistemological point of view. His discussion is not about soul’s powers, but he provides a way to save the soul from the prison of the body and emancipate the human being from the darkness of material world. In the illuminationist philosophy, the theory of intuition was proposed for the first time (The substantial form), so it has discussed the nature of the soul from this viewpoint. Suhrawardi’s psychology isn’t a consequence of theoretical discussion, but it results from introspection and self-awareness that is possible only through the asceticism and controlling the dragon of carnal soul. It is soul which shows not only the Light of Lights, but it becomes divine and finally through this path he founds his luminous system. The system of being is realized through the epistemology of soul.
