NUMERICAL ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION OF ARTICLES WRITTEN ON THE QUR'AN IN TURKEY UNTIL 2015

Since it is one of the holy books, the Qur'an is an essential book on which many studies have been carried out by both Muslims and non-Muslims. In terms of its religious and historical origins, Turkey is one of the countries where the most research on the Qur'an is made. However, because Turkish is not a well-known language in today's World, the studies prepared in Turkey do not have much space in the international arena. So the contributions of the articles written in Turkey remain at the local level. In this context, in our study, the articles written on the Qur'an in Turkey have been tried to be discussed in various aspects. With the help of the classification of the articles according to the subjects -specifically, the Qur'an-based articles- the subjects on which much research was done and the untouched areas where the study was done less were determined. It has also been determined how many of the articles written on the Qur'an are the subject of interdisciplinary studies. The numerical changes shown by these articles were also examined yearly. In addition, the number of articles on the Qur'an in Turkey written in a language except for Turkish was determined. Based on that, some evaluations were made about these articles and their authors. Finally, some mistakes and ethical violations made in the articles written on the Qur'an were mentioned. On this basis, various suggestions were made to eliminate the deficiencies.
