Aspects of Rhetorical Exegesis In Backgrounding the Apparently- deserving Foregrounding in the Holy Quraan
Main Article Content
Abstract
Abstract
Subject: tracing rhetorical signs that deviate from the norm of prepositioning the most important in Holy Quraan, and explaining these subtle phenomena.
Research problem: the research problem lies in this explicit deviation from the stylistic features of Arabic which preposes the most important.
Research Objectives: interpreting these rhetorical subtleness to uncover the exegesis of the Quraan.
Research Methodology: the research adopts the analytical approach, employing the Nazm theory, exploring the feature in its context, making benefit of the richness of the Islamic culture.
Research Findings:
* Quraan my prefer postposition an element which has priority to be foregrounded to avoid collocational clashes.
* Quraan may postpose the most important element in the sentence to achieve good collocational usage to realize balance in the lawful purposes and rhetorical signs between the preposed and postposed.
* Quraan may postpose the most important, from an Islamic point of view, to be introduced by the least important.
* postposing the most important in its sentencial order reveals under scrutiny that it is preposed in its class, and this non- literally prepositioning can not be achieved without this sentencial order.
Recommendations: Students of Arabic are highly recommended to trace these unconventional stylistic phenomena in the classical Arabic texts in general, and in shariah texts in particular. The eloquence of the usage is crystal clear in these cases and the researcher can enhance his/her linguistic skills.
Keywords: rhetoric, preposition, postposition, Quraan.
