The Qurayshi Tongue and the Reclassification of the Book Establish a Precise Semantic Structure for the Text

The Unifying Idea

This axis brings together the Qurayshi tongue, the unity of the text, and the reclassification of the Book and the Mother of the Book, to affirm that a precise understanding of the text begins with regulating language and the functions of its parts.

The Theses Included in the Axis

• The Qurayshi tongue and the unity of the text support a non-synonymous linguistic epistemic project
• The reclassification of the Book and the Mother of the Book organizes the structure of the Qur’anic text and its functions
• The Qur’anic narratives belong to the epistemic dimension, not to legislation

The Axis’s Support from the Atoms

• The text was revealed in the tongue of Quraysh
• The Arab tongue is Qurayshi in character
• The Book and the Qur’an are distinct
• The Mother of the Book consists of the definitive verses
• Qur’anic narratives are for moral lesson, not for legislation

Reading Method

This page is read as an invitation to pay attention to language before issuing judgments. Distinguishing terms and structures is what makes it possible to distinguish knowledge from legislation, and the general from the specific.
