Effective Miracle as a manifestation of the soft power of the Qur'an
Soft Power Theory is among the latest theories in the field of contemporary thoughts. First introduced by Joseph Nye, "Soft Power" means "the ability to obtain preferred outcomes through attraction rather than coercion and payment”. This ability is accomplished through cultural attractions and political ideas, and shapes the preferences of others. One of the soft power manifestations of the Qur'an is " Effective Miracle of the Qur'an" ,which is presented in various sources with different titles such as “Sensual Miracle”, “Conscience Miracle”, “Spiritual Attractions”, “Glory of Quran”, “Inner Harmony” and the like. Effective miracle of the Qur'an is a conscientious and transcendental attractiveness, and has a transhuman nature which is not found in any human works. It is also different from the well-known raptures of the material world. According to available sources, this miracle was first introduced by "Khatabi". This research uses a type of library-analytical-descriptive method to introduce “Effective Miracle” as a manifestation of the “soft power” of the Qur'an.
