The Morphological Significance of Derivatives in the Juz’ Al-Mulk

Abstract

This research explores the morphological significance of derivatives in Juz’ Al-Mulk, focusing on the meanings conveyed by various derivative forms and the contextual indications they provide. The study is organized into an introduction, preface, and seven sections. The first section examines the morphological meanings of active participle forms, while the second addresses passive participle forms. The third section discusses adjective forms and distinguishes them from active participles. The fourth focuses on exaggeration forms, the fifth on superlative forms, the sixth on nouns of time and place, and the seventh on instrumental noun forms. Each section includes applications with examples from the surahs in Juz’ Al-Mulk, supported by analyses from interpretation texts, linguistic works, dictionaries, and morphology and syntax references. The research concludes that while morphological forms play a role in conveying meanings, context significantly influences interpretation, often suggesting additional meanings. It also highlights the linguistic richness of Arabic and the diversity of derivative formulas, which contribute to the nuanced meanings of these forms. The study recommends further semantic investigations and emphasizes the importance of integrating semantic analysis with morphology and grammar to demonstrate their interconnectedness.
