Abstract

In this study, the view of Muhammad Tahir Ibn Ashur (d. 1973) on the qisas/narratives of the Qurʾān is discussed. In the article, firstly, technical information about the concept of qiṣṣa and the nature of qiṣaṣ is given in order to ground the subject. Then, the general thoughts of Ibn Ashur in the context of his view of the qiṣaṣ are discussed. In this title, according to him, the benefits of having qiṣaṣ in the Qurʾān and the wisdom of mentioning them in separate sūras are explained. Then, some of the points that the qiṣaṣ deal with in their interpretation are explained. These can be listed as making etymological analyzes for the wording of the qiṣṣa, mentioning the language and rhetoric in the narration of the qiṣṣa, his comment on the most beautiful qiṣṣa expression, his approach to the problem of the source of the qiṣaṣ, his discourses on the issue of the truth of the qiṣaṣ. Then, the method of interpreting the qiṣaṣ is discussed. These can be mentioned as his reference to the qiṣaṣ in terms of integrity, his stylistic statement about the repetition of the qiṣaṣ, his emphasizing the example point of the qiṣaṣ, and his opposition to some commentators. Finally, his attitude towards the narrations of the qiṣaṣ, his approach to Israelite traditions and his references to the Bible are evaluated. According to the findings here, he strongly opposes unfounded and exaggerated news about qiṣaṣ. Even so, he quotes passages from the Torah that are compatible between the Qurʾān and the old testament. As a result, Ibn Ashur draws attention to the fact that the qiṣaṣ are told with the truth and that the source of the qiṣaṣ is the Qur'anic revelation. He says that as in the style of the Qurʾān, the qiṣaṣ are similar in style. According to him, in order to know the qiṣaṣ, they must be handled within the framework of the unity of the revelation.
