Due to reasons such as the structure, content and style of Koran and views, thoughts and attitudes of the glossator, there are differences between approaches to Koran. Social needs and innovations in every age are also considered among the factors that affected Koranic hermeneutics and guided glossators. From the start of codification era, legal, kalamic, Sufi, philological hermeneutics schools that approached Koran emerged. Socio-cultural and scientific developments of recent centuries enabled new fields of approach to Koran. Scientific, sociological and topical interpretation schools could me mentioned among these. Recently, an increasing interest emerged in the field of psychological approach to Koran. In the light of the works published in this field, “psychological hermeneutics” could be considered as a school as well. If “psychological hermeneutics” could be systemized as a school, the works published in the field would then be more systematic. In the present study, we aim to establish that “psychological hermeneutics” could be considered as an independent school.
