Abstract
In this study entitled as " The Two Phenomena of Vocalization and
Epenthesis in the Glorious Qur'an " , the researcher had dealt with these two
phenomena from two points of view. The first is a morphological one as
prescribed by modernists. The aim has been to explore one aspect of this
wonderful language which was honoured by being the language of the
Glorious Qur'an. Hence, the researcher has chosen to explore these two
phenomena by investigating one aspect of morpho-phonemic system of
Arabic as depicated in Qur'anic language.
This study comprises an introduction, three chapters and a conclusion. In the
introduction, the researcher gives the topic of the study, its motives, subtopics,
the methodology in addition to the most important references used.
Chapter one has been allocated for vocalization in which the concepts has
been define linguistically. Moreover, vocalization has been discussed as was
laid down by the ancients whose view points has been traced, and who looked
at it as part of phonetic change. The most important of these ancients are
Sibawayh; Ibn Jinni; Ibn-al-hajib; and Ibn Malik among others. Then kinds of
vocalization have been discussed, mainly weak or defective forms made by
applying metathesis, under which the twelve types of this process have been
explained; then weak forms made by means of omission have been illustrated.
Here the discussion has been confined to the consistent omissions of vowels
resulting from a morpho-phonemic necessity. This omission of the three long
vowels i.e. the /u:/ the /i:/ and the /a:/ in addition to the hamza, i.e.
the glottal stop.
Thirdly, vocalization according to the modernists, its phonological rules and
interpretations have been explained. Then a comparison between the two view
points and a conclusion have been made.
Chapter Two deals with epenthesis. This has been divided into two types:
change by analogy for which to happen two condition have to be observedconsistency
which if not observed results in deviation, and application of
phonological rules. The second type is a dialectal one, i.e. not change by
analogy. This is defined as a phonetic change that does not meet one or both
of the two conditions of change by analogy. Here the change of Arabic letters
have been traced according to their dictionary order.
The third chapter includes the applied part of the study. This chapter is based
on the discussion which has preceded it. In the first section a number of
Qur'anic quotation have been cited to exemplify types of weak forms with
illustrations, while in the second section quotation have been cited to
exemplify phonetic change with illustrations whereas in the third section
some rhetorical examples of both weak forms and phonetic change cases have
been clarified.
This thesis is characterized by the statistical study of each phenomenon and
its divisions, which to the best of the researcher's knowledge, is unique in its
type. The researcher has followed the integrative approach has included the
historical, descriptive, analytical, and statistical methods.
This study is supplemented by an appendix of Qur'anic terms which have
undergone vocalization or epenthesis and have been classified in tables.
Probably, the most important result that the study has come up with includes
the fact that vocalization and epenthesis are two phonological phenomena
although they were categorized within morphology and dealt with
phonological. In addition, the statistical results emphasize the beauty of the
Glorious Qur'an, its soft language and the harmong of its construction and
sound, which results in the integration of meaning.
