 [[Exegetes]] have adopted many points from Quranic verses and have raised different questions. Some important issues in this regard are as following:
-=== Viceroy of God ===
+=== Successor of God ===
-About the meaning of the word "viceroy" ([[khalifa]]) in the verse where God says, "Indeed I am going to set a viceroy on the earth",<ref> Qur'an, 2:30.</ref> exegetes have different opinions, while most of them believe that Adam (a) was the [[viceroy of God]] on the earth. Different narrations are mentioned in this regard, but the final word of the exegetes would be the vicegerency of God.<ref>Ṭūsī, ''al-Tibyān'', vol. 2, p. 165.</ref>
