Fayz Kashani is one of the commentators with philosophical-mystical treasures on the one hand and Qur'anic-Hadithic interests on the other has esoteric approach to the Qur'an's Verses. He considers interpretation beyond the meaning of the word as their real meanings. Ibn Kathis is (also) one of the commentators who has added that the word "interpretation" applied in Quran means expression and explanation while accepting Ibn ibn Taymiyyah's opinion about the meaning of interpretation in Qur'an; this interpretation is influenced by the interpretations of Tabari's " Jāmiʿ al-bayān" as well as ibn Taymiyyah's "interpretive principles". The origin of the formation of such interpretation on one hand and the interpretive methods of the interpreter on the other hand have given this interpretation special features that make it worthy of follow up. Comparing these two works from conceptual and methodological point of view could be effective on clarifying the concept of interpretation in these two areas. In both abovementioned interpretations, sometimes due to the existence of common approaches to the meaning of the verse they have been shared in them. This article studies Ibn Kathir and Fayz Kashani's approach to interpretations and compares their explanations.

Verse No. 25 of Anfal Surah is one of the Verses which is paid attention by the parties. A study of interpreters approach about the mentioned Verse expresses that the interpreters did not follow a specific or exact pattern or method to understand the Divine Words; but also each one create a method based on their own principles and ideologies. This Verse is combined of three parts; first part which is «وَاتَّقُواْ فِتْنَةً» , middle part which is «لَّا تُصِیبنَّ الَّذِینَ ظَلَمُواْ مِنکُمْ خَاصَّةً»، which includes ambiguities and is paid attention by interpreters. The present research – by descriptive - analytical method – studies the interpreters’ method in interpreting Verse no. 25 of Anfal Surah in «التبیان»، «روض الجنان» , «المیزان» by Shiite and «جامع البیان»، «التحریر والتنویر» و «المنیر» by Sunnite. The studies show that Al Mizan interpretation owns the best and highest position amongst other ones while it has enjoyed various aspects of Holy Quran Verses.
