The present research aims at identifying the developments progressed in the concept of social exegesis of the Qurān from the exegetes'' perspectives. This question is to be probed that whether the methologists'' and interpretation fields analysts'' understandings from social exegesis of the Qurān as a new phenomenon have been subject to fluctuations and ultimately have been evolved in the recent century or not. The most impressive achievement of this research is to study the nature of social exegesis of the Qurān from exegesis scholars’ viewpoint as a broad concept which is solely realized in the shape of the Muslim community socio-cultural developments effects on the contemporary exegetes'' works whose function is to adapt the verses of the Qurān to the new needs of Muslim societies (adaptive exegesis). Besides its primary extended meaning and its limited scope, such an interpretation includes all the aspects of individual and social lives of Muslims in the first step which positions its ultimate goal to prove the efficacy and sufficiency of the Qurān to guide the humankind (directive exegesis). By the end and in the third step, social exegesis is regarded to be an interdisciplinary field of study which is related to the propositions expressed in sociology as well.
