Time in philosophy is a quantity abstracted from movement. However, in the Quran and Islamic culture, there is another concept of time dealing with phenomena regardless of their own material movement. All phenomena have two aspects of being Molk and Malakoot. By referring to Malakoot (sovereignty) of everything, the Quran leads us to another aspect of meta-time.
Glory be to Him Whose hand holds sovereignty over everything! To Him will you return. (Yasin: 83) Thus when we study the Holy Quran, we confront two kinds of time: one is the afaghi time, a quantified time in which the time and space of events are identified and phenomena are studied chronologically and sequentially, and the other is anfosy time in which historical and linear look is set aside and all phenomena are in the same place in a metahistorical horizon. The synchronic order of forms replaces the sequence of the forms. This kind of time is the very “delicate time” of the sovereignty world. The distinction between afaghy time and anfosy time has a determining and meaningful role in the interpretation of the Quranic verses, because we can read and understand many verses based on the anfosy idea of time. The interpretation of the anfosy verses entails the attendance of the interpreter in the field of Malakoot, as interpretation is to reveal the internal meaning and the meaning hidden in anecdote of the afaghy events. This research examines many examples of the Holy Quran including the verse “Alast”, the event of the prophet’s Me’raj, addressing the prophet in the Joseph’s story, the verses of resurrection, the conversation of the Heaven and Hell dwellers, and so on, where the role of distinction between afaghi and anfosy time in understanding them is so determining that the interpretation is not possible regardless of the anfosy time.
