Literary interpretation of the Quran

Literary interpretation of the Qur'an focuses on analyzing it as a literary text, emphasizing its linguistic, stylistic, and rhetorical features. This method was advocated by Amin al-Khuli, who argued that it is the only approach that can fully explain the Qur'an's inimitability, known as i'jaz. His ideas were later expanded upon and supported by his pupil, Muhammad Ahmad Khalafallah.
