Qur’an is the final testament sent for the people to understand it. This is only possible with a good understanding of the concepts and words contained in the Holy Book. Therefore, it is not possible to correctly understand Qur’an without knowing the exact meanings of concepts and words included in Qur’an. The concept of al-intikam and its derivatives used in Qur’an also need to be understood. In this article, the concept of al-intikam and its various derivatives are examined. First, the etymological roots and meanings of the concepts in dictionaries are discussed. Arab poetry and hadiths are used to perform these discussions. Then, the use of al-intikam in Qur’an and its different meanings within context are determined. In addition, the reasons why Allah takes al-intikam are included and difference between Allah’s al-intikam and man’s al-intikam is tried to be identified. Finally the meaning relations of “al-intikam” with other words like “al-gazap”, “al-gayz” and “al-sahad” have been analysed.
