Abstract

The reason to choose this research stems from the ongoing crisis which Islamic discourse ‎is suffering from. In the last three decades the conception of Islamic context and all that ‎it entails has been related to violence more than tolerance, to war more than peace, to ‎aggression more than stability. One of the most solid factors that led to the crisis of ‎Islamic discourse is the confusion and gap between classical Arabic language and modern ‎standard Arabic. Quran was written in classical Arabic language, and early Islamic ‎scholars wrote their commentaries and exegeses in classical Arabic language. Modern and ‎contemporary scholars, however, wrote in modern standard Arabic. The gap and ‎difference between the two languages brings about a difference in both meaning and ‎significance. As a result, the problem of misunderstandings arose and led to ‎misinterpretation and misconception. The questions of my research proposal derive their ‎importance from the religious linguistic context. In other words how could we perceive ‎this context in a right way, the significance of the religious terms and how the usage in ‎religious discourse can be used in political and social contexts? I will use here in my ‎proposal paradigms of contemporary discourses which strongly affected the social and ‎political life, not only in the Islamic world, but also in the world around. The extremist ‎movements are based on misunderstandings and misinterpretations of the Quranic text; ‎hence this led directly to promote an Islamic discourse based on violence and ‎discrimination in socio-political life. ‎
