The Role of Situationally in Textuality (A Semantic Study in the Verses of Holy Quran)

Abstract

The focal point of this study lies in the exploration of situationally as a pivotal aspect of discourse and discussion, within the broader framework of seven established standards of textuality. Situational context, encompassing factors like environment, timing, and audience, plays a crucial role in shaping discussions, speeches, sermons, and addresses. This research delves into the semantic and situational nuances of Quranic verses, elucidating their relevance across varied occasions and audiences, ranging from the revered Holy Prophet Muhammad to diverse societal personas such as believers, unbelievers, and hypocrites. Utilizing a descriptive analytical methodology, a selection of Quranic verses has been randomly analyzed to unveil rhetorical and semantic styles within diverse contexts. The findings highlight a distinction between verses with general addresses, emphasizing unity and faith, and those with specific addresses tailored to distinct groups, each characterized by unique methods of delivery and linguistic choices. This empirical investigation serves to deepen our understanding of Quranic discourse, shedding light on its intricate interplay with situational dynamics, ultimately guiding humanity towards unity and righteousness.
