Analysis of the Auditory and Semantic Implications of the Endings in Surah Yusuf

Contemporary stylistics, as a specialized field within linguistics, offers a scientific and systematic approach to elucidating the unique rhetorical qualities of the Quran, thereby emphasizing the verbal and spiritual elegance of its divine verses. A thorough examination of the auditory effects and the semantic and auditory connections of the Quran’s concluding words, referred to as “Quranic Endings (Fawasil),” in relation to the verses and surahs’ content, warrants significant scholarly attention. This analysis is crucial for effectively conveying the verses’ meanings and fostering auditory unity. The research utilizes a descriptive-analytical methodology to investigate the endings (fawasil) of Surah Yusuf at various auditory, semantic, and lexical dimensions. The results reveal that one of the key indicators of this surah’s inimitability lies in its melodious and harmonious auditory characteristics, which stem from the careful arrangement and selection of the concluding words. The congruence between the content and the thematic as well as auditory implications of these endings ultimately fosters a sense of harmony and coherence.
