This article focuses on several aspects of the relationship between Qur'an and sirat and highlights the importance of these aspects in relation to tafsir and sirat writing. It is known that sirat and sunna which are the applied tafsir of Qur'an are the main sources of tafsir. On the other hand, Qur'an is both an authentic source and an axis for sirat writing. A methodologically correct sirat writing needs a correct notion of prophethood and a correct notion of prophethood needs the arbitration of Qur'an. This indicates a dialectic and intertwined relationship between sirat/sunna and Qur'an. Qur'an shows that sirat of the Prophet (pbuh) is the materialization of Qur'anic ethics and embodiment of Justice as a way of life in his personality. Yet, the sirat of Prophet (pbuh) which is formed by his words, silence and behaviours is his Sunnah at the same time. There is no dispute regarding that sunna is the applied tafsir of Qur'an. This article talks about the strong relationship between sirat and Qur'an and emphasizes that the whole Quran is part of the reflection of his sirat. It will be shown that from the verses about daily incidents to the ones about the stories of previous prophets, all verses of Qur'an should be understood in relation to his sirat. When viewed from this perspective all tafsir studies are at the same time a study of sirat. From our standpoint, this point shows that a sound tafsir study and understanding of Quran are not possible without taking into consideration the historical background of his sirat and the relationship between Quran and Sirat.
