Linguistic Guidance of Al-Farshiyyah Words Unique to Al-Shami Quran

Abstract

Al-Shami Quran (Levantine Quran) is considered one of the Ottman Books generated during the reign of Caliphate Othman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), and it was unique in that it drew words in the surahs of the Holy Quran with its design, which distinguished it from other Ottoman books, and these words, al-Farshiyyah Words, had an impact on the Arabic language, especially on the syntactic, rhetorical and semantic levels. This official distinction of the Al-Shami Quran was the reason for limiting the title of the study to: (Linguistic Guidance of al-Farshiyyah Words Unique to Al-Shami Quran). The research problem arises from the main question: what is the linguistic guidance of al-Farshiyyah words that are unique to Al-Shami Quran? The following questions are derived from it: What is the significance of studying Al-Shami Quran in linguistic terms? What are al-Farshiyyah words that distinguish and uniquely characterize Al-Shami Quran from all other Quran books? What linguistic connotations highlight al-Farshiyyah words that are unique to Al-Shami Quran? The research aims to explain the significance of the linguistic study of Al-Shami Quran, extrapolate al-Farshiyyah words that are unique to Al-Shami Quran, align them linguistically, and uncover their linguistic connotations. The methodology used for the research is the statistical method in identifying the places that are unique to Al-Shami Quran in the Holy Quran, from its beginning to its end, and putting these places in a linguistic classification, according to what is appropriate to the nature of al-Farshiyyah words, as well as the descriptive analytical approach in linguistic guidance. The study includes an introduction, five sections, a conclusion, findings, recommendations, a list of sources and references. One of the findings of the study was that the number of places, where Al-Shami Quran is unique compared to other Quranic books, is seventeen places, and that the grammatical guidance is the most prominent among the linguistic guidance, followed by the rhetorical and semantic guidance.
