Abstract:

As it is known Islam gets its religious content from prophecy  (nubuwwah), which is also entitled as messengership (risâla) and revelation (wahy). Through these, the holy Qur?an corrected some misinterpreted and degenerated forms of past holy books on the one hand, and reviewed some creeds of pagan culture on the other and eventually called them false. The disapproval of past books in many aspects gave rise to their members to stand to criticize the Qur?an. So historically we have many criticisms by Christians and Jews. Apart from these heavenly traditions, Barahima, Dualist and materialist  ones disparaged the holy Qur?an, considering its content. Our paper profoundly brings forth Imam Mâtürîdî?s criticism against these second groups. Because the great Imam defended the reasonability and plausibility of nubuwwah and consequently the content of the holy Qur?an against these groups.
