Abstract
In the interpretive method of "Qur'an to Qur'an", paying attention to the symmetry of "Siyaq"(the meaning that a word finds in the middle of a sentence) and the relationship of verses with each other is of great importance, and has a special place in achieving the correct interpretation of the Qur'an. An analysis of Sunni and Shiite interpretations showed that the word "Khair" in most Qur'anic interpretations is considered as "superiority Verbs" (Afale Tafzili) that mean "better and the best". Allameh Javadi Amoli believes that this word in some contexts, according to the "Siyaq", does not mean "superiority Verbs" (Afale Tafzili) but it is"determinative Verbs" (Afale Taayini). Therefore, the present study has descriptively-analytically examined the word "Khair" in the interpretation of "Tasnim". The study of "Tafsir Tasnim" showed that in a total of 33 verses, the word "Khair" is based on the weight of "determinative Verbs". According to Allameh Javadi Amoli, in some cases and according to the context, when two things are compared with each other, if both are from the same source and root, it is comparable, but if the roots and essence of two objects are not the same, this comparison and preference and The superiority of one over the other is fundamentally wrong.
