Stylistics is a study that includes various dimensions, such as the phonetic dimension. For this reason, this research is placed in the framework of stylistics, not in the framework of verbal and semantic miracles and adherence to the theory of phonetic simulation in Quranic theology. It also shows the relationship between the different audio groups in Surah Shura with the meanings of the verses. It also refers to the subject of sound engineering and phonetic groups, by choosing the best words and arranging them in sentences that are easy to pronounce, and are far from severe convergence and divergence, and without any inconsistency between sounds and using consonants. And the sounds are arranged in the best way, along with providing evidence for these two theories. Also, this research refers to the subject of sound engineering and phonetic groups. This is done by choosing the best words and arranging them in sentences that are easy to pronounce, and are far from convergent and divergent, and without any inconsistency between sounds, using consonants and vowels, in the best way, along with presenting evidence for these two theories.
This research started based on the descriptive-analytical method and using the theoretical framework of phonetic groups and mechanisms of the sound systems and ended with applied data and patterns.
One of the most important results of the researcher in this research is that this surah has provided the best model for these two theories, in the best way and in a relaxing and listening way.
One of the signs of phonetic harmony in this surah is that the loud sounds have been used 874 times, and in the case of short sounds, we see that Fathe has the highest number and is used 1223 times, which is the highest percentage among other phonetic groups. On the other hand, the oral letters in this surah are 74% more than the whispered letters and this is the presentation of the explicitness, emphasis, and eloquence of expression.
From the examples of proportion between the audio and the meaning of the verses, in the ninth verse of this Surah, i.e., “أَمِ اتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ فَاللَّهُ هُوَ الْوَلِيُّ وَهُوَ يُحْيِي الْمَوْتَى وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ” in the word “قدير”, two voices (Qaf and Dal) are in line with its previous phrase (يُحْيِي الْمَوْتَى).
In this research, the compatibility of the exits of the letters of the word and the harmony of the sentence in the surah were proved. For this reason, the utterance of words, sentences, and phrases does not weigh heavily on the tongue due to the lack of a large and close distance between the exits of the letters. It also facilitates the arrangement and proportion of the sounds of the divergence phenomenon, if any, and solves the problem of observing the rules and regulations of Tajweed, such as amalgamation and upheaval, if they are close to each other.
In addition, the musical aesthetic, such as repetition and omission, has had the greatest benefit in the statistics of this research, and in the verbal and semantic miracle of this surah, the distance has played the main role.
