Abstract

Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, a scholar who is among the most valuable ones produced by

our nation and who produced the most comprehensive compilations of work relevant to

“Eloquence of Qur’an” - has clearly attracted the inspiration of many researchers and thinkers

as a result of his views on this topic. In his work titled “Signs of Miraculousness” and

especially in “Miracles of Qur’an” (both being part of the Risale-i Nur collection) - Said

Nursi’s great familiarity with previous traditional approaches and his incorporation of

them into a unique and original intellectual treatise is clearly evident. It is also known that

Said Nursi is familiar with the views of scholars such as Cahiz, Bakillani and Abdulkahir

el-Curcani in the area of Qur’anic eloquence. Because the writings of the aforementioned

scholars were not fully translated into Turkish, those who are interested in pursuing this

topic should delve into the works of Said Nursi and build on his research - as it will be an

important form of service.

Abstract

Öz

Ülkemizin yetiştirdiği değerlerden biri ve “İ’câzu’l- Kur’ân” konusunda son dönemde

en kapsamlı te’lifin sahiplerinden olan Bediüzzaman Said Nursî’nin konuyla ilgili görüşleri

kendisinden sonra birçok araştırmacıya ilham kaynağı olmuş görünmektedir. Said

Nursî’nin telif ettiği Risâle- i Nur Külliyâtı’nın özellikle İşârâtu’l- İ’câz ve Mu’cizât-ı

Kur’âniye Risâlesi (Sözler-25. Söz) eserleri başta olmak üzere, muhtelif parçalarında konuyla

ilgili kısımlara bakıldığında, onun kendinden önceki geleneği çok iyi bildiği ve bunları

özümseyerek kendi özgün yorum ve ifadeleriyle orijinal bir düşünce ortaya koyduğu

görülebilir. Bu bağlamda Said Nursî’nin Câhiz, Bâkillânî, Abdulkâhir el- Cürcânî gibi

“İ’câzu’l- Kur’ân” sahasında önemli alimlerin görüşlerine vâkıf olduğu fark edilmektedir.

Adı geçen alimlerin kitapları halen Türkçeye çevrilmediğinden, bu konuda bilgi edinmek

isteyenlerin başvuracakları Türk dilinde yazılmış bir eser olmaları açısından Said Nursî’nin

eserleri bir boşluğu doldurmaya hizmet etmeleri açısından da önemli olsa gerektir.
