Abstract:
This study examines plural forms in the Qur’an as meaning-producing morphological structures that contribute to guiding interpretation and shaping the reader’s mental representation of the text, rather than serving a purely numerical function. The research analyzes selected Qur’anic plural forms, revealing the semantic and cognitive dimensions that arise from variation in morphological structure and diversity of plural patterns.
The study adopts an analytical approach based on correlating morphological form with contextual usage, demonstrating that the choice of a particular plural form is closely related to the nature of the group being described, the behavioral or evaluative qualities intended for emphasis, and the degree of individual salience within the collective. The analyzed examples show that certain plural patterns tend to construct a homogeneous collective image, whereas others allow for the preservation of individual autonomy within the group, a distinction that significantly influences the cognitive understanding of the Qur’anic text.
The study further demonstrates that Qur’anic plural forms contribute to semantic density and rhetorical enrichment through the connotations they convey, extending beyond surface structure to deeper levels of mental imagery and cognitive engagement. The findings confirm that morphological structure in the Qur’an constitutes an effective mechanism for meaning construction, and that its examination through contemporary linguistic approaches enhances awareness of its semantic and cognitive functions within Qur’anic discourse.

Abstract
This study examines the influence of Aristotelian logic on the construction of Kalam proofs prior to Al-Razi, focusing on the methods by which early theologians employed Greek logical tools while maintaining the authenticity of Islamic doctrinal thought. Aristotelian logic served as a methodological foundation for generating precise and coherent arguments, particularly concerning the oneness of God and His attributes.
The research illustrates how the principles of Aristotelian deduction and syllogism were integrated into theological reasoning. Early theologians organized their arguments in a logically consistent sequence, without exceeding the limits established by the sacred texts. This integration was not mere technical adoption but innovative Kalam methodology, through which new analytical tools were developed to address doctrinal challenges systematically.
Furthermore, the study demonstrates that interaction with Aristotelian logic enhanced theologians’ ability to critique anthropomorphic analogies, analyze divine attributes rationally, and maintain a balanced approach between reason and revelation. The findings indicate that the pre-Al-Razi period witnessed the establishment of robust methodological foundations for Kalam proofs, preserving the intellectual independence of the theologians while using Aristotelian logic as an auxiliary rather than absolute reference.
