Why is it important?
The findings show that Ibn Qutaybah’s interpretive method can be a general model for understanding the Holy Qurʾān. Based as they were on the conventions of Arabic as the living language in which the Qurʾān was revealed and addressed itself to mankind, Ibn Qutayba’s interpretations gained wide acceptance among the interpreters in general.
Perspectives
This study’s uniqueness lies in its specific focus on the intricacies of morphology as an obstacle to understanding the Qurʾān. No such research has been carried out to date. Ibn Qutayba’s approach constituted an essential model in this regard. Furthermore, the present study broadens the academic discussion by integrating perspectives from diverse commentators, thereby opening up new avenues for future inquiry in this field.
