Abstract

Islamic scientists believe that on the basis of verse 172 in Aaraf chapter, 
there has been a conversation between Allah and human beings and in this 
conversation all the human beings have accepted monotheism. But there 
were different ideas about the reality and symbolic nature of this 
conversation among Islamic scientists. Some of these scientists believe that 
Mithagh supports the idea of Zar world and this conversation and acceptance 
has been real and it was realized in the materialistic world before the 
creation of human being and the contents of Mithagh verse reveal it. Others 
deny using Zar World from that verse. And they believe that there is no Zar 
World. But some of them do not see the content of verse tamthil as symbolic 
and they see it real. The findings show that to deny using Zar World based 
on mithagh verse, you should accept Mithagh verse as having Tamthil and 
symbolic view of the content of this verse. And you cannot deny inferring 
Zar world from the verse and view that acceptance as real. Moreover, 
viewing it as Tamthil and symbolic is against the content of the verse from 
different perspectives. And therefore, it is unacceptable
