Application of the Words Fe’l (acting), Amal (doing), and Son’ (making) in the Holy Quran and their Semantic Differences

Among the agents of polytheism (shirk) - which is the imitation of the fathers, following of suspicion and caprices, caprices play a pivotal role. The most dangerous part mentioned in Holy Quran - in the verses 43 of furqān and 23 of jāthiyah- for caprices is divinity. It is explained in the words of commentators in two ways: choosing of god or religion by the will of the caprices and obedience of the caprices. The present paper with the analytical-critical method first evaluates the views of commentators in this regard, and then presents the criterion's perspective. This view uses both ilah and hawā (caprices) in its original meaning without having to carry them metaphorical expressions, or deleting or adding a term.
