The term "Ahl al-Bayt" is a common word that has been used in various instances. This word in the verse of purification is apparently one of the important challenges of the Qur'an; Because on the one hand, those who believe in the inclusion of women of the Prophet have considered the unity of context and have argued for their inclusion, and on the other hand, those who disagree with the inclusion of women of the Prophet have changed the addressee of the verse. The present article seeks to discover the semantic and exemplary identity of "Ahl al-Bayt" from the viewpoint of theologians and commentators of the two sects with a rational and narrative method. The Shiites and many Sunnites used the term "Ahl al-Bayt" in a special sense at the time of revelation; i.e. "the companions of Kesa". On the contrary, some got confused with rational and narrative reasons and gave precedence to the apparent meaning over the explicit texts. This study, with its focus on internal and external evidences, has included many criticisms, including conceptual constriction and expansion, weak narrations, literary justification, confinement of verses to specific examples, and the dominance of explicit texts over apparent meanings. So, the assumption that the wives of the prophet are included in the verse of purification suffers a clear scientific paradox.
