Parts of the Arabic sentence in light of prophetic rhetoric

Abstract:

 This research aims to study the imperative sentence and its components in the speech of the most eloquent of the Arabs, and to determine the extent of eloquent linguistic expression in prophetic rhetoric. The research adopted a descriptive-analytical approach and was divided into three sections: the first addresses the status of the Prophetic Hadith among scholars, the second addresses the imperative sentence, and the third addresses the non-imperative sentence. The research reached several conclusions, including: that prophetic rhetoric is prominent in the imperative sentence, and that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed his listeners with a direct command when he asked Muslims to inquire about matters of religion and worship. Furthermore, divine guidance is evident in his beautiful style and impactful discourse, as many scholars and commentators have observed. Recommendations include: focusing on the grammatical and rhetorical structures and linguistic themes in his speech; the necessity of studying the Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim using modern linguistics; and compiling outstanding research in this area and adopting it as a course material for the Arabic Language and Islamic Studies departments.
