The infallibility of the prophets is one of the common beliefs among Muslims; But regarding its time, scope and meaning, thinkers of different theological schools do not have the same point of view. Many verses in the Holy Qur'an deal with the issue of the infallibility of the prophets, and some verses also imply the infallibility of the prophets. Among them, the issue of "decline" and "infallibility" of Prophet Adam has always been disputed among Muslim commentators and theologians. This research, with a descriptive-analytical method, seeks to answer the question, what is the view of Ayatollah Javadi Amoli and Fakhr Razi (representing two different theological schools, Shia and Ash'arite) regarding the verses related to the infallibility of Prophet Adam (PBUH)? What are the similarities and differences between the two views? The findings of this research indicate the alignment of the two commentators despite the difference in theological attitudes, and the differences between the two viewpoints are very rare in this issue. From Ayatollah Javadi Amoli's point of view, this incident happened at a time when there was no legislative prophecy, and the prohibition in the verse was also instructive, and the Holy Prophet also committed the first abandonment, which does not harm his infallibility. On the other hand, Fakhr Razi believes that Adam (PBUH) committed a sin, and of course, this sin was related to before he was sent and attained the position of prophethood, and there is nothing wrong with it. This research has examined and analyzed the reasons of two commentators and presented the selected opinion.
