The medieval Karaite grammarian and exegete Abū l-Faraj Hārūn b. al-Faraj (Jerusalem, 5th/11th century) was a broad reader of the literature available in Arabic, in a variety of genres. Earlier studies have demonstrated that in his grammatical works on the Hebrew language, Hārūn adapted discussions from well-known compositions focused on Arabic and the Qurʾān. The following examination of Hārūn’s treatment of the subject of biblical  majāz , non-literal language, aims to show that in constructing his sophisticated and innovative discussion of the topic, the Karaite scholar read widely – and adapted creatively – incorporating the methods of a variety of genres in Arabic, including  uṣūl al-naḥw ,  uṣūl al-fiqh  and even  iʿjāz al-Qurʾān  and combining them together with earlier Jewish and Karaite scholarly tradition to produce what seems to be the first comprehensive discussion of non-literal language in Judeo-Arabic.
