Abstract

Choosing pronoun reference in part of the 190th verse of surah e A'raf “They ascribe partners to Him concerning that which He has given them” causes challenges among interpreters of both sects: referring pronoun of the verb "جعلا" to Adam and Eve how will compatible with infallibility of Adam(PBUH). Many narrative texts are showing these challenges tracking back to Islamic first centuries. Both sects' interpreters chose different approaches for explanation of this verse. Theories like Polytheism of Adam and Eve (PBUH), Polytheism of Quraysh ancestors, Polytheism of human kind are seen among exegesis approaches of both sects. This article by critics and analysis of exegesis approaches has chosen the theory of Polytheism of Adam and Eve (PBUH) as selected approach . According to similar verses and interpretive narrations and rational reasons, Quranic and narrative of infallibility of Adam (PBUH), it seems that the verse is seeking to explain the story of childbearing of Adam and Eve, but in the part of “جعلا له شرکاء" pointed to end of Polytheist children of these two
