Özet:

In this article we attempted to record original interpretation of Said Nursi on two hadith in his Mathnawi al-Nuriya. First hadith is on the worth of the world to the meaning of “Should the world have the worth of a fly in Allah’s view, the unbelievers could not drink a sip of water”. Said Nursi expresses that in this hadith the transient aspect of the world which looks to the sins and rebellion and not the other two aspects which look to the field of the afterlife and the reflections of the names of Allah. He interprets the expression “in Allah’s view“ as the eternal realm. The second hadith which Said Nursi makes an original interpretation of is about the importance of prostration and is “The closest moment of a servant to his Lord is the moment of prostration. Pray a lot there”. Said Nursi draws attention to two points here. Firstly, the place of prostration that is earth is where Allah’s names are seen most evidently. Secondly, earth is a symbol of humility and modesty. From this perspective, during prostration in utmost humility and modesty man meets the place where Divine Names are most evidently reflected.
