محمد أركون و كتابه القرآن من التفسير الموروث إلى تحليل الخطاب الديني : دراسة نقدية

Abstract EN

There is no doubt that the Book of Allah Almighty is the first source of legislation in Islam, and this is something that is taken for granted by Muslims, and it is part of the miracle of this religion in all aspects of the legislative and rhetorical miracles and other things.

Therefore, the enemies of Islam, in the past and present, tried to undermine the Qur’an because of its great impact on preserving the religion of people and their steadfastness on it, but they could not directly undermine it because it was rooted in the belief of every Muslim, so they resorted to indirect methods to weaken the prestige and sanctity of the Qur’an in the hearts of Muslims to deceive the ignorant or those who had little knowledge of his religion.

Little by little until the matter came to explicitly undermining the Qur’an, such as saying that it is a text like other texts that accepts criticism and modification - we seek refuge in God from unclear disbelief - and in this research I dealt with a brief critical study about one of the books that its owner called for deviations that were affected by the thought of Orientalists and their likenesses: The Qur’an from the inherited interpretation to the analysis of the religious speech by the Algerian writer Mohamed Arkoun.

And I followed the deductive inductive approach, and I divided this research into an introduction, two studies, and a conclusion.

Among the results of the research was an explanation of the most prominent deviations of Muhammad Arkoun in his book, including: misuse of literature with Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, and his prophets, peace be upon them, Islam, Muslims and their scholars with his claim in many situations that he is an Islamic thinker! And his denial of the holiness of the Noble Qur’an and that it was revealed by Allah, claiming distortion and deficiency in it, proposing new readings in it and balancing it with previous distorted books.

Moreover, he is contradicting himself in his claim of interest in the language which couldn't be further from the truth as he uses vague terms and is influenced by Western terminology in his book and contradicting the Arabic language.
