Rhetoric as a Biggest Miracle of the Qur'an -The Case of Treatise of the Miracles of the Qur'an-

Öz

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to produce a commentary on the issue of rhetoric as a miracle

of the Qur’an as argued by Said Nursi in his work “The Miracles of the Qur’an” (otherwise

known as The 25th Word). In this treatise, he highlighted forty different miraculous

aspects of the Qur’an and stated that the greatest miracle lies in the inimitability of the

Qur’anic eloquence - i.e. the fact that such rhetorical style cannot be copied or emulated

in any way. Writing under the headings of “The Beauty And Wisdom of Composition”,

“Meaning of Wonderful Eloquence”, “Wonderful Style Of Expression”, “Wonderful Clarity

Of Its Words” and “Majesty Of Exposition” - Nursi used various Quranic passages as

examples as part of his study of eloquent rhetoric. He also found some original proofs with

respect to some aspects of the Qur'an's eloquent style and rhetoric.

Bu makalenin amacı, Bediüzzaman Said Nursi’nin Mu’cizat-ı Kur’aniye Risalesi adlı

çalışmasında belagat açısından Kur’an’ın mucize olduğu yönündeki görüşlerini ortaya

koymaktır. Nursi, Sözler isimli kitabının 25. Söz’ünü, diğer adıyla Mu’cizat-ı Kur’aniye

Risalesi’ni Kur’an’ın i’cazını açıklamaya tahsis etmiştir. O bu risalede Kur’an’ın kırk

vecihle mucize olduğunu vurgulamış ve en kuvvetli i’caz vechinin de belagati olduğunu

söylemiştir. Nursi, Kur’an’ın belagatını “Nazmındaki hârika cezâlet”, “Mânâsındaki hârika

belâğat”, “Üslubundaki hârika bedâat”, “Lafzındaki harika fesâhat” ve “Beyanındaki

berâat” başlıkları altında ayetlerden çeşitli örnekler vermek suretiyle inceleme konusu

yapmış ve Kur’an’ın belagatine dair bazı orijinal tespitlerde bulunmuştur.
