a research on stylistics of the surah ash-shams

the holy surah “al- shams” with its effective musical sound is striking in ear and heart and includes various meanings in its few words. shortness of distances and abundance of swears and various contradictions is evident in it which led me to study it in three levels of stylistics: phonetic level, combination level and semantic level.the aim of this study is to explore the beauties of its stylistics and the findings of this discussion are that in the phonetic level, high explosive soundis more than low voice and whisper, and in combination level, abundance of swear and repetition of it and different contradictions and also the beginning of the surah with a nominal sentence, made a special combination level. in semantic level, there is rhetorical allusion especially in record of thamud and cutting of the legs of the she-camel. this quranic allusion makes us needless of telling long stories. this study is conducted with the aim of studying the stylistics of the surah al shams in three levels by descriptive-analytical approach.
