Hanik Mahliatussikah, Mohammad H. Al-Khresheh
Rhetorical devices consist of verbal and meaning embellishments, in which the verbal portion first pertains to the word after which the meaning follows. If one of the words is substituted with its antonym, then there will be no rhetoric, meaning embellishment pertains to the meaning itself. By using the qualitative descriptive method, this study attempts to unveil instances of: antithesis, opposition, consonance, and paronomasia in part thirty of the holy Quran. After a comprehensive analysis of most of the Suras (chapters) of this part, it was found that the majority displays varying levels of consonance. There are complete and incomplete paronomasias. Antithesis may be positive or negative, verbal or of meaning. As for opposition, it exists in part thirty but isn't as frequently seen as antithesis. The style in this part of the Quran is a literary artistic - one that is rich with imagery and addresses emotions. Its words are inspirational and its ideas are blended with emotion. Part thirty of the holy Quran includes 31 chapters that talk about doomsday resurrection and Allah's might. The pivotal point in this doomsday is Allah's doing and states that everything in this world belongs to Him. Such ideas are presented in a very artistic and eloquent style. © 2020 Hamdard Foundation Pakistan. All rights reserved.
