A Qur’anic Discourse Analysis: Exploring Values in Nouman Ali Khan’s Amazed by the Qur’an

Idha Nurhamidah, Riyadi Santosa, Djatmika Djatmika, Henry Yustanto

Abstract

This research addresses the critical need to understand the linguistic and rhetorical dimensions of religious lectures (Khutbahs) delivered by Nouman Ali Khan, exploring the Qur'anic themes. As a linguist, the uniqueness of his lecturing and interpreting always unzips the Qur'an linguistically based_ unravelling the intricacies of language and discourse. The qualitative method involves text analysis of 20 Khutbahs, examining linguistic features, textual organisation, and rhetorical strategies employed by the speaker. The study explores the rhetoric of Qur'anic discourse across various life aspects, emphasising linguistic registers and the integration of Arabic and English. The primary data comprises transcripts of 20 Khutbahs from the "Amazed by the Qur'an" channel, covering diverse topics such as ethical considerations, historical narratives, and linguistic intricacies present in the Qur'an. The khutbahs serve as a rich source of linguistic and moral insights. The findings reveal the diverse applications of linguistic registers, showcasing the Qur'an's value in addressing social, business, and personal dimensions of life. The integration of Arabic and English caters to a broad audience. The study emphasises the significance of linguistic competence and rhetorical dimensions in conveying Qur'anic messages, encompassing Halliday's Systemic Functional Linguistic (SFL) tenor, mode, field, and rhetorical strategies. This research contributes to understanding the 'no linguistical mistake' and timeless relevance of the Qur'an in guiding human conduct across various life domains. Besides, this study contributes to scholars and educators interested in linguistic dimensions of religious discourse, as well as for preachers to build effective communication of their religious teachings in contemporary settings.

Abstract

This research analyses the use of spatial and temporal deixis in the Little Forest movie to explore the interconnection between language, Japanese culture, and ecology. It employed a qualitative approach based on an ecolinguistics analysis framework grounded in the positive discourse analysis (PDA) model and the concept of symbolic competence. The analysis reveals that the use of local place (35.71%) and cultural place names (39.29%) is more dominant than proximal explicit (14.29%), medial (7.14%), and distal (3.57%) deixis. In terms of temporal deixis, specific time (48.28%) and repeated time (24.14%) references reflect a natural cycle-based time construction. These findings suggest that space and time in the movie are not merely narrative backdrops but play a crucial role in constructing cultural identity, fostering ecological awareness, and articulating resistance to global homogenization (Kramsch, 2010; Stibbe, 2020). The movie presents rural life as a deliberate, meaningful choice rooted in tradition and nature. Thus, Little Forest can be seen as offering an alternative, sustainable model of life grounded in local wisdom and ecological values and showing cultural continuity in society.
