Morphological significance of the structures of the augmented verbs in the section Tabarak

Abstract

The research aims to study the morphological significance of the augmented verb structures in Tabarak Surah, to know the connotations and meanings indicated by the augmented verb structures with one, two, and three letters, and to look into the morphological significance of those structures in the books of morphology and their occurrence in the Qur’anic contexts in Tabarak Surah. The research concluded that the multiplicity of some meanings and their overlap in a number of augmented verb structures, such as the passive, for example, as one structure includes a number of meanings. The morphological structures have a great impact on determining the meaning. Any change in these morphological structures, whether by increase or decrease, leads to a change in their meanings and connotations. It is found that the structures of the three-letter verbs augmented by a letter are more common than those augmented by two and three letters, with no structure of the four-letter verbs in the section “Tabarak” being mentioned due to the limited number of them in the Holy Qur’an in particular and the Arabic language in general, as only eight verbs are mentioned in the entire Holy Qur’an.
