Grammatical Approaches in the Reasons of Qu’ranic Expression for Modernists

Abstract

The indefiniteness is the opposite of knowing and vice versa. Denying and defining are two of the methods that the rhetorician should observe in speech, because each of them has a place in which it is not good for others, so it may be better to define a word in a place where it is not good to indefinite it, while we see the opposite in another place، This is because what is indicated by indefiniteness is not what is benefited by defining, and the reasons that call for indefinite the word are contrary to those that call for defining it, The method of indefinite and definition is one of the methods specific to the noun and not others and What the noun denotes in the definite case does not denote it in the indefinite case according to the speaker, the position and the subject. The ancients and the moderns spoke about this phenomenon, and we notice its occurrence in the Holy Qur’an in its verses. There are verses in which there are indefinite words and others that are defined, and each of them has a reason and a reason for putting the word in the appropriate place for it.
