The art of al-tiffat is one of the most widely used rhetorical arts, which, by changing from one style to another, prevents the uniformity of the speech process and boredom of the audience. In addition to this general benefit, al-tiffat in eloquent speech carries rhetorical nuances and nuances appropriate to the situation of the speech. On the other hand, one of the important topics in the history of the Quran is the discussion of differences in readings; differences that cause changes in the linguistic elements of understanding the speech, including al-tiffat in the verses; which indicates the necessity of recognizing the developments of this rhetorical art and the readings that affect it in the Quran. The present study was conducted using a descriptive-analytical method with the aim of explaining the art of al-tiffat in the Quran and examining the various effects of differences in readings - famous and not famous, which have interpretive value - on it and, as a result, creating different interpretive aspects in the divine word. Differences in readings sometimes cause the creation, elimination, or displacement of al-tiffat in the verses of the Quran. In the Quran, based on the various aspects of existing readings, the greatest impact of readings on al-tiffat occurs in relation to the change of subject pronouns, which occurs due to differences in the accusative letters of verbs. Among the readings, the reading attributed to Ibn Mas’ud is an effective example in eliminating al-tiffat. Considering the two-way relationship of the art of al-tiffat affected by the differences in readings and interpretation of the Quran, some readings appear to carry al-tiffat, but it is not easy to judge the presence of al-tiffat in them because they require more interpretive precision; on the other hand, some of these aspects of readings and al-tiffat affected by them create different rhetorical points and interpretive aspects, which paves the way for further research in this field of interpretation.
