هذه بعضٌ من أفكار ومشاعر ومعانٍ جاءت على صفحات هذا الكتاب، ومؤلف الكتاب العالم الكبير الأستاذ فتح الله كولن لم يزعم أنه في معرض التفسير لما تناوله من آيات قرآنية، على الرغم من امتلاكه لكل شروط المعرفة التفسيرية وأدواتها. وكُلُّ الذي فعله أنه سجّل في هذا الكتاب ما تلقاه من وَمَضاتٍ والْتماعات وإشارات من بعض مَا تَألّقَ في سماء وجدانه المرهف من نجوم القرآن، ومع ذلك فإنه لم يغفل تمامًا آراء المفسرين في الآيات التي عرض لها، غير أنه توسع بعض الشيء فيها، وانقدحت في خاطره أفكارٌ وَمَعَانٍ جديدة مضافة، تحتملها الآية من حيث تركيبها اللغوي والبلاغي، ولا تشتطّ أبدًا في الابتعاد عن أصول التفسير وقواعده المعروفة. ولا شك أنَّ هذه الخطرات أملتها ظروف العصر، وظروف الدعوة الإسلامية المعاصرة، وأوحت بها معارف العصر وعلومه وتوجهاته الفكرية والروحية.ـ
Muhammed Fethullah Gülen was a Turkish Muslim scholar, preacher, and leader of the Gülen movement who as of 2016 had millions of followers. Gülen was an influential neo-Ottomanist, Anatolian panethnicist, Islamic poet, writer, social critic, and activist–dissident developing a Nursian theological perspective that embraces democratic modernity. Gülen was a local state imam from 1959 to 1981 and he was a citizen of Turkey until his denaturalization by the Turkish government in 2017. Over the years, Gülen became a centrist political figure in Turkey prior to his being there as a fugitive. From 1999 until his death in 2024, Gülen lived in self-exile in the United States near Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania. Gülen said his social criticisms are focused upon individuals' faith and morality and a lesser extent toward political ends, and self described as rejecting an Islamist political philosophy, advocating instead for full participation within professions, society, and political life by religious and secular individuals who profess high moral or ethical principles and who wholly support secular rule, within Muslim-majority countries and elsewhere. Gülen was described in the English-language media as an imam "who promoted a tolerant Islam which emphasises altruism, hard work, and education" and as "one of the world's most important Muslim figures". In 2003, a number of Gülen movement participants allied with Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's right wing Justice and Development Party (AKP), providing the AKP political and sorely-needed administrative support. This political alliance worked together to weaken left-of-center Kemalist factions, but fractured in 2011. Turkish prosecutors accused Gülen of attempts to overthrow the government by allegedly directing politically motivated corruption investigations by Gülen-linked investigators then in the judiciary, who illegally wiretapped the executive office of the Turkish president, and Gülen's alleged instigations of the 2016 coup attempt. Gülen denied the accusations. A Turkish criminal court issued an arrest warrant for Gülen in 2016, and Turkey demanded his extradition from the United States. U.S. government officials did not believe he was associated with any terrorist activity, and requested evidence to be provided by the Turkish government to substantiate the allegations in the warrant requesting extradition, frequently rejecting Turkish calls for his extradition. Gülen was wanted as a terrorist leader in Turkey and Pakistan, as well as by the OIC and GCC.
Such a beautiful and important book. It’s so easy to simply pick it up and read any interpretation of any verse and be so thought provoked. I just wish it took more time and depth for each chapter. I also imagine the original Turkish version to be an even easier read.
“ayrıca imanı sabrı netice vermiş bir mârifet ve irade kahramanı, değişik mihnet ve meşakkatlerin geliş esprisini kavradığı için en sabırsûz hâdiseler karşısında bile ümitsizlik ve telaşa düşmeyecek, şerlerin dahi bir hayırlı yanı olabileceği mülâhazasıyla sabrettiği aynı anda gönlü şükürle atacaktır.”
Gulen elegantly highlights and illuminates some verses from the Quran. He explains what we can know from these verses through inductive reasoning. An enlightening read that was very enjoyable.
تجليات و اجتهادات تقترب أكثر من غيرها من عصرنا و أطر وجودنا اليوم فتخاطبنا مباشرة دون كثير لف و دوران و ذلك في فهم و تفسير بعض الآيات ! و الطريف مع ذلك أن اختيار الآيات يداعب وترا حساسا عندك إذ غالبا ما تطالعك الآية الموالية فتستبشر بقدومها إذ أنك كنت قد تساءلت في يوم ما عن ما تحمله هذه الآية من مكنون أعمق من مرورك "الكريم " في كل مرة !
هل يمكن ان يوجد اجمع و لا احكم من كلام الله عز و جل. في هذا السفر لطيف الحجم يأخذنا المفكر الدارس لعلوم الروحانية الإسلامية في سياحة وجدانية تحت ظلال أيان القران الكريم ، فيلخص ما بها من دروس و يرصد ما بها من عبر مبرزا جمالها التكويني و إعجازها البلاغي. كتاب يصلح للاطلاع السريع عند أخذ استراحة من العمل و لا يمل الانسان العودة اليه كل حين. احببته بشدة.
