Abstract (EN)

Inspired by the gift theories, the understanding of gift and its cycle mentioned in antropolgy, this work aims to reveal the giving-accepting-reciprocating circle in Quran, the bonds it creates and the reciprocality it is subject to. The circle of gift is investigated in Quran and Quranic terminology is referred to. In this work, the interpretation of Quran by Elmalılı Hamdi Yazır is used. Also, for general terminology, Online Islamic Encylopedia is sourced. For interpretations of gift, Marcel Mauss' work, "The Gift" is referred to, which is the main source of all gift discussions.
