Study of the Network Connections of Surah al-Inshiqāq with Its Adjacent Surahs (Infitār, Mutaffifīn, Burūj, Tāriq)(مقاله علمی وزارت علوم)
حوزههای تخصصی:
The Holy Qur’an has a single source and there is no difference between its verses. Therefore, some Surahs of the Holy Qur’an may be put together to get a better understanding of them. And based on the method of verbal and spiritual analogies, one Surah should be placed at the center and the its connection with other Surahs of the Holy Qur’an would be discovered. “The network connection of the Surahs of the Qur’an” is a new term that speaks of the structural and content relation between Surahs. The methods of network connections between the Surahs of the Holy Qur’an can be summarized in the thematic congruence between adjacent Surahs, congruence between a set of Surahs, congruence between the beginning of a Surah and the end of the previous one, congruence between two consecutive Surahs at the beginning or end, rhyme, common purpose, and common theme. This research analyzes the network connections of Surah al-Inshiqāq with its adjacent Surahs (Al-Infitār, Mutaffifīn, Burūj, Tāriq) with a descriptive analytical method in two aspects of structural and content congruence. In conclusion, this Surah has structural and literary connections, including the congruence of the beginning, rhyme, analogy, and literary imagery, which all are in one structural group. The research also shows that this Surah has content connections including the Unity of God, mentioning the events of the Day of Judgment, grouping of people in the Day of Judgment, and common purpose.
