According to semantic theories, one of the best ways to understand the meaning of words, along with the use of vocabulary resources and etc., is to use the feature of contrast. The present study deals with the semantic analysis of the opposition of the words “Yamin” and “Shemal” in the Holy Quran, while in this opposition, “Yamin” is presented to “Shemal”, and in addition to the opposition, the use of the context of the preceding and following verses is also considered. . Sometimes, from the context or the meaning of the opposite word, some meanings are understood that cannot be seen in any dictionary. Besides, there is a semantic affinity between the understood meaning and the original word. Based on the findings of this research, the words yamin and north generally mean "right" and "left", but they have other secondary meanings that are related to the main meaning. Other meanings of the word Yamin are power, goodness, ownership, agreement and oath, all of which are related to the right hand. The word north, in addition to left hand and left side, conveys the meaning of weakness and (spiritual) weakness, which is related to the original meaning. But when the word ashab is added to these two words, they no longer mean directions, and this matter has been overlooked by most translators, and the meaning has not been fulfilled.

In this paper, the narrations regarding Repentance and Forgiveness, which exist in reliable Hadith references such as Al-Kafi, Amali, etc., have undergone an evidence-based textual review, and it has been identified that the greatest doubts regarding the fallibility of Imams (pbut) are the narrations in which the Imams have admitted their sin and have asked for God’s forgiveness. As a result of evidential and textual reviews, it has been identified that most of these narrations are weak in terms of being constructed on documentary evidence, and, regarding their texts: 1) The subject of these hadiths is mostly about paying attention to God which draws others’ attention to this action; 2) the terms such as sin, repentance and forgiveness, used as evidence of fallibility, do not necessarily indicate fallibility and have different uses; 3) forgiveness of Imams (pbut) is a type of repulsive forgiveness which prevents the manifestation of sins; 4) repentance and forgiveness, in Quran’s view, is one of the greatest prayers, examples of which can be mentioned by referring to these points. All believers are called to forgiveness, and God loves those who repent.

In the holy Qur’an, the philosophy of storytelling is in fact the story of philosophizing. If philosophizing is the move towards ‘perplexity’, ‘invitation’, ‘reflection’ and ‘admonition’, then the stories of this pure Book invite us to all these four. As a carrier of ‘meaning’, this holy Book has not been oblivious to storytelling and narration; Quranic stories are replete with historical events and stories, and, without images or imaginations characteristic of popular stories; the precious gem of these stories is nothing but the admonishing lessons.
