"Emphasis and its Impact on Semantic Coherence in Surat Al-Waqi'a "A Semantic grammatical study)

Abstract

This study aims to examine the forms of emphasis contained in (Surat Al-Waqi'a), and to indicate its impact on revealing the hidden significance of the coherence of the Qur'anic text, as well as to clarify and invigorate it. The researcher adopts the descriptive approach that relies on tracking, induction and analysis by using the statistical method, particularly in the introduction, and two chapters: a theoretical chapter dealing with the terms of the study and its contents, and an applied chapter concerning the study sample and its linguistic analysis. The study revealed that emphasis, in its different patterns, in Surat Alwaqi’a has an impact on the semantic coherence and confirmation of the doctrinal facts contained in the surah, the matter which makes the recipient more aware of the divine message and enhances the objective coherence among the verses of this Surah, in addition to highlighting its meanings and ideas in sequence and clarity. It also eliminates doubt and denial in terms of its emphasized methods. Moreover, it provides the power to remove hesitation and denial on side of the audience. The study recommends connecting modern textual studies, Quranic texts and analysis to derive results through the most important mechanisms relied upon by scholars in studying the Qur'anic text.
