Abstract:Why there are similar verses in the Qur'an? Is there a difference of meaning between the similar verses or verses are merely repetition? What is the main issue? We aimed to reveal the commentator's opinions comparatively about the similar verses. And to find answers to such question in our study. Verses according to wisdom and neason where they are mentioned. İn the study the Arabic and the Turkish meaning of alike verses put together, after mentioning the differences between the verses, the wisdom and the reason of the difference is explained according to the meaning in the dictionaries in the Qur'an context. If needed, it is objectively tried to evaluate the Turkish translation of the verses and the translation method. The most important obtained results from the similar verses issue is about repetition.
