كتاب في علوم القرآن، يضع مؤلفه مجموعةً من القواعد والأصول المنهجية التي تعين على فهم كتاب الله وتفسيره، مستنداً إلى دلالات الألفاظ وطرائق القرآن في تقرير العقائد والأحكام. يهدف إلى فتح أبواب التفسير أمام القارئ وتدريبه على استخراج المعاني من خلال أمثلة تطبيقية، مع التركيز على مقاصد السور والآيات وأساليب الحجاج والجدال.
