Özet:

In Arabic, preposition of mā acts as both a name and a letter. For this reason, it comes out in different forms and functions in the Arabic syntax. In Arabic, mā is one of the rare multi-functional prepositions. It is important to note what the preposition of the mā which was discussed under the title huruf al-meāni in classical Arabic grammar books functions. If the function of mā is not understood correctly, there is a risk that Arabic syntax would be misunderstood. In addition, this preposition that we frequently see in the verses of the Qur'an is an important element in the interpretation of the verses. Despite the importance of the subject, it seems that it has not been adequately and in detail discussed in Arabic grammar books written in Turkish. Our work aimed at filling the gap of knowledge in this matter has been limited only to the function of the mā in the grammar. Different uses of the mā were classified into two main headings as letters and names. While the subject was discussed, examples of the verses and Arabic poetry were given and tried to make use of the other basic sources. In particular, the commentary of ad-Damamini in Ibn Hisham's Mugni'l-lebib, Al-Uzhiyya of al-Herevi, and some other important sources were made use of. Since it would increase the volume of the study,  Related controversies in some verses were not cited unless it is necessary.
