التعين: مَا بِهِ امتياز الشَّيْء عَن غَيره بِحَيْثُ لَا يُشَارِكهُ فِيهِ غَيره وَقَالَ الزَّاهِد فِي حَوَاشِيه على الْحَوَاشِي الجلالية أَن التعين يُطلق على مَعْنيين: الأول: كَون الشَّيْء بِحَيْثُ يمْتَنع فرض اشتراكه بَين كثيرين وَهُوَ يحصل من نَحْو الْوُجُود الْخَارِجِي وَيلْحق الصُّور الذهنية من حَيْثُ إِنَّهَا صور ذهنية لِأَن الْحمل والانطباق وَمَا يقابلهما من شَأْن الصُّور دون الْأَعْيَان. وَالثَّانِي: كَون الشَّيْء ممتازا عَمَّا عداهُ وَهُوَ يحصل بالوجود الْخَاص بِمَعْنى أَن الشَّيْء يصير بالوجود ممتازا عَمَّا عداهُ كَمَا أَنه يصير مصدر الْآثَار انْتهى.
