Divan of Kaqani has been famous among researchers and litterateurs for being difficult and rare since long ago; hence it has been noticed more by researchers and exegetes with respect to other classic Persian poets’ literature. Also, numerous exegeses have been written to the entire divan or to a portion of it. One of those exegeses interpreting a portion of this divan is a book named “ATASH ANDAR CHANG”. This book is written by Mahdi Mahouzi and is published by Zavvar publications in 340 pages. In this article, we are going to criticize this book in a scientific and critical way. Moreover, we will discuss subjects such as the haste in preparing and publishing this book, incorrect extracting, the introduction of irrelevant subjects, and the use of others’ works without making reference to them. In conclusion, we get the result that the book under debate is one of the weak and unscientific works and it is necessary to take action to amend the mentioned items.
