Description

This scholarly work explores how the Qur'an's meaning has been shaped and reinterpreted through Muslim political rhetoric, with particular focus on the Abb sid Caliph al-Ma m n's reign from 813-833. Drawing on classical Arabic-Islamic rhetorical theory, the author examines authentic documents from this pivotal period when Islamic political thought and literary culture reached maturity. The book demonstrates how Qur nic verses function as tropological exegesis, where scriptural passages are reinterpreted through the subjective experience of political leaders and their societies. By analysing the intersection of Qur nic referencing and socio-historical context, this volume reveals how moral reform agendas were constructed and legitimised through scripture. Essential reading for scholars of Islamic history, Qur nic studies, medieval rhetoric, and the development of Islamic political philosophy during the early Abbasid period.

Key Features

Routledge Studies in the Qur'an series publication offering peer-reviewed scholarly analysis of Qur nic interpretation and influence across Islamic history and culture.

Examines authentic Arabic documents from al-Ma m n's caliphate (813-833) to illustrate how political rhetoric employed Qur nic referencing as tropological exegesis.

Applies classical Arabic-Islamic rhetorical theory to decode how subjective experience shaped the reinterpretation of Qur nic verses in medieval Islamic governance.

Explores the relationship between socio-historical context and scriptural hermeneutics during the maturation of classical Islamic political and literary culture.

Demonstrates how Qur nic moral reform rhetoric functioned as a tool for legitimising Abb sid state authority and policy objectives.
