Abu Uthman Amr ibn Bahr, nicknamed Al-Jahiz, a litterateur and Mu'tazilite theologian of the third century, is one of the defenders of the Quran and the founder of the science of rhetoric. In response to his teacher al-Sarfaji's views, he wrote a book titled Nazm al-Qur'an, which is currently lost; however, Al-Jahiz has addressed inimitability directly or indirectly in his writings. The abundant literary and theological data that Al-Jahiz has presented in explaining his theory makes it necessary for us to explore the thought of inimitability in Al-Jahiz. What is revealed through studying the works of Al-Jahiz is his method of expressing and explaining the issue of the inimitability of the Quran, and through two linguistic and rhetorical foundations, he has shown a clear picture of the rhetorical inimitability of the Quran.

» (Al-Jahiz, Al-Hayawan, 5: 227) Al-Jahiz explains: «The Holy Quran has called honey a wine and a drink, while honey is not a beverage; however, it has applied the word "sharab" (wine/drink) to it metaphorically; because through it, water comes out in the form of wine, a beverage, or nabidh (a type of drink); therefore, it has called it wine and a beverage; because one can provide a beverage from it using water, and it is common in Arabic speech to say: ja'at al-sama' al-yawm bi-amrin 'azim: (Today the sky brings a great matter); as the poet says: idha saqata al-sama' bi-ard qawmin ra'aynahu wa an kana 'idaban, waqti al-sama' 'ala ard qawmin yarudu ma nuraqibu anhu, although they were angry; they imagine that they have taken the sky under observation and supervision and the sky falls, when honey comes out through the belly and interior of the bee.
In the Arabic language, they say: honey comes out from the bellies and interiors, and if someone applies the literal meaning to such a compound matter and form of conveyance, it must be said that from the Arabic language, little or or knows much; this type of metaphorical usage is considered a source of pride for the Arabs in their language, and through metaphorical usage and its like, the Arabic language has expanded; the Holy Quran, with such words and speech, addressed the people of Tihamah, Hudhayl, and the dwellers of the outskirts, who had honey at their disposal; and the Arabs were more familiar with any resin that comes out of trees and drips down, and any liquid that falls from them.
By showing the rhetorical aspects of some Quranic verses in his books "Al-Hayawan" and "Al-Bayan wa al-Tabyin," Al-Jahiz intends to reveal the secret of their beauty and present aspects of the expressive inimitability of the Quran.
