Abstract
The article examines the Qur'anic quotes used in the verses of Abu Muhammad al-Qasim al-Hariri (1054-1122), which demonstrate one of the main forms of medieval Arabic rhetoric. It is known that the Qur'an had a great influence on the literature of all other nations in the medieval Arab and Muslim world. Not only do religious literature and pamphlets on Muslim law reflect the spirit of Islam and are enriched with Qur'anic quotations but also other works of medieval art of expression also have this effect. In medieval Arabic literature, we consider this aspect in the example of Hariri's maqamats which are considered to be the most perfect Arabic short stories on eloquence, knowledge in various fields, asceticism, and other subjects. The article analyzes the use of Qur'anic quotes in the speech of two important characters, the narrator and the protagonist, in different situations, themes and relationships, and the protagonist's justification of his actions through these Qur'anic quotes.
