The linguistic significance of the hadith and its impact on the interpretation of Surat Al-Ahzab
الملخص
This is a systematic study that sheds light on the linguistic significance of the hadith and its impact on the interpretation of Surat al-Ahzab. The nature of the study required an introduction to the noble surah that is the subject of the study. It addressed the linguistic vocabulary in the hadith and its impact on the interpretation of Surat al-Ahzab, as well as the linguistic vocabulary found in the Holy Qur'an and the hadith with a single meaning. It also addressed rhetorical issues in the hadith and their impact on the interpretation of Surat al-Ahzab. The study employed an inductive and analytical approach, given its relevance to the nature of the subject. The study reached a number of conclusions, including:
- The winds are mentioned in Surat al-Ahzab in a general manner without specifying their type. The hadith identifies their type, stating that they are the "saba" winds, meaning "easterly winds." This explains the type of wind by which God aided His Prophet on the Day of the Confederates.
- There are also types of winds mentioned in the Holy Qur'an other than the "saba." They are mentioned by various names in various places, such as "adh-Dhariyat" (the winds that blow), "al-'Aseefat" (the storms that blow), and others. This is one of the scientific miracles of the Holy Qur'an. There are some difficult-to-understand terms in the verse, and the linguistic significance of the hadiths has the final say in unraveling this ambiguity and determining the verse's intended meaning.
- The word "hijab" is mentioned in the surah, and the verse appears to refer to a woman's veil. However, upon examining the semantic context of the word "hijab" mentioned in the hadith, we discover that it refers to the curtain placed over the door of a house.
- The linguistic significance of the hadiths has played a role in deriving some of the rulings related to the verses, whether these rulings are doctrinal or jurisprudential.
