%X In this article, I investigate a possibility in the structure of the QurĄŻan for rethinking the usually forgotten issue of the religious sign. This is where deconstruction , guided by acertain otherness or transcendence, renders all GodĄŻs attributes as unthinka ble. Thus, GodĄŻs presence is not the opposite of absence and his will is not in the way o f our freedom. In fact, God is the Other, not in a dual system. Such an otherness brings about the idea of a sign which is non-dual in nature: It presents Allah as the Other who is never outside the Book.1 In addition, He is so near, yet no thing in the Book is like Him.
