The Rules on Stop and Start on What the Meccan School of Thought has Exclusively Counted or Left out 10.35781/1637-000-118-002

Abstract

The research deals with the topic of stop and start on what the Meccan school of thought has exclusively counted or left out, and aims to limit the heads of the verses that the Meccan school of thought has exclusively counted or left out, to explain the reason, to explain the ruling on stop on them, to give preference to what is in them of connection or stopping, to clarify the relationship between the sciences of stop and start and the science of counting the verses. The research was paved with an introduction and two sections. In the first section, I discussed the definition of the science of stop and start, its importance and divisions, the definition of the science of numbers, the numbers circulated among the scholars of the countries, and the explanation of the relationship between these two sciences. Then, in the second section, I discussed the places that the Meccan school of thought counted or left out, with a study of the rulings of stop and start in them. The places that the Meccan school of thought counted alone reached four places, and the places that it left out were four places. I followed the inductive and analytical approach in the research, by limiting the places that the Meccan numbering was alone in counting and leaving out. Following the statements of the scholars of stop and start and the scholars of counting the verses regarding these exceptions, and the ruling on stop on them, with a study of these places, and explaining the reasons for counting or leaving out. The research concluded with several results, the most prominent of which are: The places that the Meccan school of thought counted alone or left out differ in terms of stop and start, some of which are more likely to be connected, and some of which are more likely to be stopped. In addition to the reliance of the scholars of counting in explaining the beginnings of the verses and what they counted and what they left out on narration and transmission, not on ijtihad, and thus we find in some of the beginnings of the verses what is more likely to be connected and is not a place for stopping according to the scholars of stop and start.
