Abstract

The current study aims to identify the evidences from the Holy Quran which highlights the signification of the language uses. It also explores the impact of linguistic choices in the Holy Quran on the understanding of concepts seeking to discern how language shapes perspectives and influences the spiritual and moral dimensions of believers’ lives. The qualitative research method and linguistic determinism have been employed to interpret and analyze the data. Only ten verses related to the objectives have been selected from the Holy Quran. Furthermore, it has been highlighted that the Quranic language extends deep understanding and eloquence among the language users. The Quranic language shapes human perception and enriches the users with wisdom and transcendence to view the world in a spiritual perspective. The results highlight that the Quranic language purifies human thought while using language. The linguistic nuances of Arabic serve to reveal layers of meaning, transforming it into a repository of wisdom for scholars and interpreters.
