The Decency of Address in the Qur an on Sexual Pleasures

Language of the Quran can be interpreted in light of one of the three approaches: (1) Arabic language and Arabic words (2) Arabic language in accordance with language and thought of addressee (3) Arabic language in accordance with language and thought of addressee and harmonious with thinking system of the speeker; Quantity and quality of courtesy in Qur’anic discourse (in all three mentioned meanings) in the five areas of sexual pleasures (pleasure of heart, eye, ear, touching and intercourse) can be confirmed. Elusion from explicit sexual expressions in Qur’an and the avoidance of Qur’anic discourse from being clear in instruction, and its refrain from using common terminology of some Arab literary scholars in speech, as well as the compatibility within the fundamental thoughts of Qur’an (in ideology and ethics) with a linguistic approach of the holy Quran, all reflect the ethical and polite method of the Qur’an in referring to matters concerning sexual issues and relative terminology. Analyzing the different aspects of the decent Qur’anic discourse can lead us to some strategic results about dominance of the paradigm of decent speech in three fields: Major policy making, local and regional policy making, personal and individual conversations, and conversations between opposite sexes.
