Özet:

Abstract The premise of Qur’anic rhetoric as being part of the “Evidence of prophethood” of its bearer, i.e. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) - has long been a hotly discussed topic amongst the scholars of “Kelam” (speculative philosophy). Likewise, just as the life and achievement of the Prophet is a complete miracle, so too was the Qur’an a complete miracle in itself. The first time in which the Mutezilite scholars attempted to explain the eloquent rhetoric of the Qur’an was arguably initiated by Nazzam’s theory of Sarfe. He, while offering an opinion on the rhetorical aspect of the Qur’an - was soon joined by scholars such as Cahiz, Rummani, Kadi Abdulcabbar, Bakillani and Abdulkahir el-Curcani who all became involved in trying to prove the miraculousness of the Qur'an's fluency and composition. Starting with the Mu’tezilites and continuing up until today - many scholars have tended towards this topic and have produced several treatises on it.
