Öz: Mutezile mezhebine mensup âlimlerin önde gelen simalarından olan Mahmûd b. Ömer b. Muhammed b. Ömer’dir. Künyesi Ebü’l-Kâsım ez-Zemahşerî’nin (467-538/1075-1144) el-Keşşâf an hakâiki ğavâmizi’t-tenzîl ve ‘uyûni’l-ekâvîl fî vücûhi’t-te’vîl isimli eserinin,
tefsir literatüründe önemli bir yere sahip olduğu bilinmektedir. Keşşâf, hacim itibariyle,
muhtasar bir tefsir olmasına rağmen, Zemahşerî onda, sahih-şâz, pek çok kıraat ihtilafı nakletmiştir. O, kıraatleri naklederken onların sahih veya şâz olduklarını genellikle belirtmemiştir. Ayrıca naklettiği kıraatleri kurrâdan kimlerin okuduğunu da genellikle zikretmemiş; kıraat-i seb‘a imamlarının isimlerini ise nadiren anmıştır. O, tefsirinde kıraatleri
kabulde gözettiği ilkelerin ne/neler olduğunu açıklamamış; bununla birlikte, bazı kıraatleri Arap dili açısından tenkide tabi tutmuştur. Zemahşerî’nin Keşşâf’ında takip ettiği
bu genel metottan hareketle onun kıraatleri kabulde benimsediği ilkelerin neler olduğu merak konusu olmuştur. Bu makalede, sahih kıraatin üç şartına riayet(sizlik) açısından Zemahşerî’nin durumu tespit edilecek; böylece Zemahşerî’nin kıraatleri kabul şartları ortaya
konulacaktır. Ele alınan konular, Keşşâf’tan seçilen örnekler üzerinden, diğer kaynaklarla
da mukayeseli bir şekilde, ele alınacaktır.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Kur’ân, Zemahşerî, Keşşâf, Tefsir, Kıraat, Sahih, Şâz.
