Beschreibung
The triliteral Arabic root _-l-m occurs on almost every single page of the printed Qur_an. Despite this central and consistent usage, it has not yet been studied within the field of Western Qur_anic Studies. In its most basic sense, _-l-m means 'putting something in the wrong place' but is often translated as 'to do wrong', 'to act unjustly', 'injustice', 'evildoing', or finally, 'oppression'. As such, a study of _-l-m elucidates significant ethico-religious dynamics and power relations that obtain within the qur_anic text. While the present book does not contain a grand thesis on the origin or canonization of the Qur_an nor claim to answer questions pertaining to the ultimate origins and formation of this multifaceted religious and historical text, it will contribute a systematic philological and semantic study of one root and its relations to other roots in the Qur_an through a synthesis of three methodologies: Synchronic/diachronic analysis, semantic field analysis, and formulaic analysis.
