Tarihselci Kur'an Yorumunun Batınî Tefsir Anlayışıyla Diyalektik İlişkisi.

When the works of historicists are examined, it is clearly seen that they were influenced by western critics and orientalists, as well as the ancient batinis in the Islamic world. In essence, just as western critics were influenced by the esoteric interpretation of Origenes (d.253-254), historicists seemed to be reviving the path of the ancient batinis in the Islamic world. Phenomena such as heaven, hell, angels and jinn are symbols, the Quran is a human word, the stories of the Quran are not experienced realities, the provisions of the Quran are universal in the sense of being "valid at all times and for everyone". Those ideas are some of the similarities between the two groups that could be given as an example in this regard. However, the lack of a study revealing the relationship between historicists and the bâtınîtes and evaluating the fictional historicist method of exegesis in this context is an important deficiency on the subject. Therefore, it was deemed appropriate to investigate this issue in order to eliminate this deficiency and to create a basis for future studies on the subject. For this purpose, in the first part of the article, two groups were compared in terms of sources, methods and opinions and an evaluation was made about this. In the second part, it is examined whether the historicist method of exegesis in accordance with the Qur'an in the context of esotericism. Since the Qur'an contains many subjects that are not included in the culture of the Arabian Peninsula - and therefore cannot be counted as historical - it has been seen that it is not possible to apply this method of tafsir to the Qur'an. In addition, historicism's treatment of verses with an approach that is contrary to the Qur'an, such as the humanity of the Qur'an, contradicts the teachings of the Qur'an. The tafsir method of the historicists, who could not stay away from the esoteric interpretation style due to the method they followed, turned the Qur'an into a distorting word full of contradictions, legends and esoteric meanings rather than a guiding word. Therefore, it is clear that historicism, which we can define as modern esotericism, is a style of explanation contrary to the spirit of the Qur'an for these and similar reasons. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
