Discourse Analysis of Propaganda Verse in Ghadir Sermon by Practical Discourse Analysis Method

Ghadir's sermon is one of the most important sermons of the Holy Prophet which presented as a "Velayat" discourse in the social sphere of that day; Because of the coherence of the spirit and the soul of the Prophet with the Holy Qur'an this sermon is heavily influenced by the Holy Qur'an. The verse 67 of the Sura Ma'edah, known as the "Propaganda Verse", Due to the consensus of the Shiites and the Sunnis on having the verse assigned to Ghadir is one of the most important verses in the sermon therefore, discourse analysis as a new method that addresses the meaning of the text and its underlying layers, is important in examining these verses. In this project, using Practical Discourse Analysis Method (PDAM), based on Islamic insight, examines verse 67 of the Sura Ma'edah five spaces: structural, semantic, communicative, discursive, and meta-discourse. And its basic axes were identified and it was also explained that this discourse, in contrast to the hypocritical discourse, considers the "Velayat" a divine status. And the "Velayat" as central to this discourse indicates that the great mission of the Prophet and the religion of Islam is the flow of the "Velayat", not the law, so it does not end with the end of the noble life of the Prophet.
