A Study of the View of Commentators on "fitr / fitrat" with an Emphasis on Paradigmatic and Syntagmatic Relationships

Fitrat is one of the key words of the Qur'an in the field of anthropology in particular and ontology in general, so from the past until now, theological, philosophical, mystical, interpretive and narrative schools have dealt with it. The present study has explained the concept of fitrat in Qur'anic applications by examining the existing interpretations, with the interpretive approach of Qur'an to Qur'an and emphasizing the issues of paradigmatic and syntagmatic relationships. This method with a descriptive-analytical approach tries to describe the hidden angles of a concept with a specific process. Examining the word "fitr / fitrat" ​​in the existing interpretations and analyzing it, it became clear that this word, while accompanying the attributes of Lordship, vilayah, tawhid and raziqiyyat and substituting the words of sunnah, inshiqaq and infiraj from it, includes a concept close to the concept of sunnah. Hence, the Qur'anic word  fitrah indicates the existence of order in the universe. Such a meaningful order within man has also been adapted to the system of existence; A system that appears in the form of causal relationships between phenomena.
