Özet
In this study, the term of 'blessing', which is a basic Qur'anic concept, is analyzed. In this regard, the study focuses on the definition of 'blessing', its different meanings in the various contexts, synonyms and antonyms and its leading individuals to the dimensions of faith, worship and morality. These subject matters are studied by taking into consideration of the meanings of 'blessing' in the Qur'an and commentators' explanations about the word. The expression of the 'blessing' in the Qur'an indicates that the word has an extensive and constructive meaning. The fact that having an extensive meaning demonstrates that the points the word encompasses can be determined to some extent. It is exemplified in the Qur'an what can be regarded as 'blessing'. Furthermore, the commentators determine various meanings to the word by considering the contexts in which the word is used. It is understood that the aim of using the word in the Qur'an is to lead the individuals to the dimensions of the faith, worship and morality. It is possible for people to be grateful to God by making this aim more visible in their lives.
