O, hayatının son yıllarında Kur’an’ın anlaşılmasında Sami Dillerinin önemini gündeme getirmiştir. Kur’an’da geçen sözcüklerin nüzul dönemindeki kök anlamlarının tespiti, Kur’an’ın doğru anlaşılabilmesi için önemlidir. Ancak konunun önemine dikkat çeken az sayıda bilim adamı birtakım önerilerde bulunsa da bu öneriler Akdemir’e göre yeterli değildir. Zira Akdemir, Sami Dillerinin, Kur’an sözcüklerinin kök anlamlarının tespit edilmesinde vaz-geçilmez bir unsur olduğunu vurgulamaktadır. Akdemir’in bu düşünceleri sadece bir öneri olmakla kalmamıştır. Bilakis bu teorisini, yüksek lisans ve doktora çalışmalarıyla pratiğe geçirmiştir. Biz bu çalışmamızın ilk aşamasında kısaca Akdemir’in hayatından bahsedeceğiz. Ardın-dan Sami Dilleri hakkında öz bilgi sunmaya çalışacağız. Daha sonraki aşamada ise Ak-demir’in Sami Dilleri konusundaki görüşlerine yer vereceğiz. Son olarak da Kur’an’ın an-laşılmasında Sami Dillerinin gerçekten olmazsa olmaz bir ölçüt olup olmadığını ortaya koymaya çalışacağız. Anahtar Kelimeler: Salih Akdemir, Sami Dilleri, Kur’an, Tefsir. Salih Akdemir and the Role of Semitic Languages in the Understanding of the Quran Abstract Akdemir was an academician who worked in the field of Tafsir for years at Ankara Uni-versity Faculty of Theology. During his last years of life, he brought up the importance of Semitic languages in the understanding of the Qur’an. Determination of the root meanings for the words in the Quran in the period of its revela-tion is vital for the true understanding of the Quran. However, although a minority of sci-entists who draw attention to the importance of the issue made some suggestions, these suggestions were not sufficient according to Akdemir. Because Akdemir emphasized that Semitic languages are indispensable in determining the root meanings of words in the Qur'an. These thoughts of Akdemir were not only suggestions. On the contrary, he put his theory into practice with his master's and PhD studies while he was alive. We will briefly talk about Akdemir's life within the first section of this article. Then we will try to give some concise information about Semitic languages. After that, we will cover Akdemir's opinions on Semitic languages. Finally, we will try to present whether the Semitic languages are necessary in understanding the Qur’an. Keywords: Salih Akdemir, Semitic Languages, Qur'an, Tafsir. Structured Abstract: In order to understand the Qur’an accurately different studies have been done since the earliest of times. One of the most important among these stud-ies is the science of tafsir (interpretation). When we look at the first period of tafsir stud-ies, we see that most of them are linguistically oriented. This demonstrates the im-portance of determining the root meanings of the words in the Qur’an. It is undeniable that words go through changes in their meanings over time. In this re-gard, words resemble living organisms. There is always a possibility that words will un-dergo semantic narrowing, semantic enlargement and transition of meaning. However, some words can preserve their root meanings for centuries as if challenging history. This is also true for the words in the Qur’an. For this reason, the necessity of such studies emerge in order to determine the meaning of the Qur’an at the time of its revelation and to understand it as the first addressees understood it. Therefore, diachronic semantic studies are inevitable. The most important of Akdemir’s studies to understand the Qur’an is his work on determining the root meanings of the words in Qur’an through semantic languages. Akdemir had 15 graduate students investigate 20 different word roots in their graduate studies. In these studies, it was found that the word roots generally undergo semantic contraction, semantic expansion or semantic changes. Rarely, as a result of these studies we observe that roots such as “brk”, “sbh”, “kds”, “hsb”, “emn” and “kfr” have preserved their root meanings. The results of these studies have a vital importance in understanding the Qur’an. We believe that diachronic semantic studies are beneficial in determining the root meanings of the words in the Qur’an and therefore are essential in understanding of the Qur’an. However, it should be noted that such studies are more dif-ficult than thought. Perhaps for this reason, no one has yet undertaken such a study after Akdemir. In fact, we did not come across such a research method before Akdemir. Keywords: Salih Akdemir, Semitic Languages, Qur'an, Tafsir. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/11499/53677 |
