Summary: | This study intends to unravel the balaghah aspect which supports the narrative structure of the
story between Moses a.s. with the Pious Man in Surah al-Kahf as an effort to highlight the
aesthetic value of the story. The two main elements of discussion are given the focal attention
in the analysis, namely the balaghah aspects and the narrative structure to demonstrate the
coordination between the two elements. This study applies the analytical method by extracting
the aspects of balaghah through the conventional approach practiced and introduced by the Abd
Al-Qāhir Al-Jurjānī. This approach explains the existence of the close relationship between the
balaghah aspect and the narrative technique. The balaghah aspect is the element being analysed
however this study attempts to relate the approach with the narrative structures. In analyzing
Quranic texts related to Moses a.s. with the Pious Man, this study unravels the narrative
structure found in the text by examining the balaghah aspects that support the structures. This
analysis does not cover other available narratives which are not related to this particular story.
This analysis also focuses on the word choice, the arrangement in the text, the rational of using
the word and its implication, and the lesson and example derived from the narrative. Hence,
with this approach, the analysis is expected to provide answers especially to the priority given
by the Quran to certain utterances in supporting the narrative structure of this story in an effort
to highlight the compatibility and harmony between the balaghah aspects and the narrative
structure, which lure the readers towards the beauty and uniqueness of the language found in
the Quran, while simultaneously contribute new findings from different aspects. |
