Abstract

Research importance:The discours is one of the concepts which established a prominent presence in the Islamic heritage. Despite the preoccupation of contemporary scholars with it, and the multiplicity of their opinions about its nature and limits, and its affiliation with linguistics, style, literature or philosophy, its roots are authentic in the Islamic heritage. The linguists presented it as a discours directed to an addressee, and it found its relationship with rhetoric through the concept of (attention) described by Al-Suyuti as (coloring the speech), and Ibn Kamal Pasha singled out a thesis for this title. Writers and intellectuals talked about it, and the interpreters and researchers in Quranic studies discussed it. It is one of the faces of the individuality of the Quranic text, some critics referring to its form among the other classes of, others discours referring to its organization and the nature of its syntax or its contents and information. Research problem: The expansion of the field of research in the discours, and the multiplicity of viewing angles, makes it problematic and it requires research to deconstruct the concept and set the limits of the term. This is assured by deciding if the subject studied is the Quranic, which discours is different from the creative: poetry discours and prose. Then, it is necessary to choose what suites the specificity and uniqueness of the text, and to refer to the heritage of the traditional scholars who made great efforts in analyzing the Quranic text. If they had not reached the summit, they have definitely climbed it, and even if they didnt define the exact term, they have discussed its characteristics. Research aims: Selecting one of the images of (discours) that reflects the specificity of the Quranic text in terms of its origin, and its recipient, or forming this image which shows its uniqueness, and reveals its dimensions and goals and thats what this research aims at.
