Abstract

The Qur’an mentions abundance of terms that signify beauty and these have in the history of Islamic works become the very terminology of "aesthetics". We should also here mention that the Qur’ān speaks of itself as "a speech" or "a word" that "evokes admiration" that is contemplation and reflection upon its miraculous nature. About the spiritual "civilisation", Ginns is mentioned that they said: "Verily, we have listened to the Qur’ān that evokes admiration...." ( ِ إنَّا َ س ِ م ْ ع َ نا قُرْآنًا َ ع َ ج ً با - al-Ginn, LXXII:1). In the Islamic culture and civilization Qur’ān discloses rituals, but also as a book that evokes admiration. This guideline taken from our Encyclopaedic lexicon of the Qur’an, will in short, indicate the manner in which the Qur’ān speaks of beauty, wonder, admiration, marvel as well as to spaces and horizons upon which the Qur’ān discloses the beauty.
