Rhetorical and Scientific Miraculousness of Sura Yaseen with Special Focus on its Salient Rhetorical & Scientific Features (A Critical Interdisciplinary Study of the Quranic Sura Yaseen's Inimitability).
The Quran claims to be the world of God and as such to be inimitable by mortals. The Holy Prophet regards the Sura Yaseen as the heart of the entire Quran in point of its being a happy synthesis of rhetorical, scientific and phonetic excellence of outstanding nature.
This manifold quality of Sura Yaseen has been the subject of the present research in the light of the past and contemporary linguistic and semantic studies, especially those related to modern scientific discoveries in the fields of astronomy, biology, geography, photosynthesis, chemical transformation, buoyancy and archeo-historic probe — all this preceded by linguistic and semantic analysis of the Arabic term: Ijaz (inimitability) with survey of the views of the past and present scholars on the subject. Thereafter a detailed study has been undertaken to bring to the focus the phenomenon of Quranic Ijaz in its different and various aspects such as rhetorical and linguistic, legislative, and expressive (as distinct from poetic expression), metaphysical, narrative, psycho-affective, photosynthetic, geographical, and numerical by way of providing a background necessary for appreciation of the literary, artistic and scientific characteristics of Sura Yaseen with special focus on the fact that Sura Yaseen enshrines the higher trio of divine epistemology, anthropology and reasoning, given which Sura Yaseen exemplifies a highest imaginable level of excellence coupled with unsurpassed brevity.
Topic of the PhD dissertation (Rhetoric pictures in Quranic Invocations.)
It is a matter of fact that the Holy Quran is characterized by rhetoric and elequancy. This rhetoric and eloquaney appear in the Quranic invocations. So I have adopted the rhetorical aspects of the Quranic invocations as a subject matter of my PhD thesis. I shall try to focus on these aspects keeping in view the three kinds of the rhetoric:
1. (Elm —Ul-Bayan )
2. (Elm-Ul-Maani)
3. (Elm-Ul-Badea)
I have divided my topic into six chapters:
First Chapter: It will deal with Rhetoric. It will include three sub-chapters.
Second Chapter: It will consist of essential objects of research regarding invocations. It will include six sub-chapters.
Third Chapter: The Quranic invocations will be discussed. It will consist of four sub-chapters.
Fourth Chapter: Quranic invocations will be mentioned in the light of. It will include four sub-chapters.
Fifth Chapter: Quranic invocations will be mentioned in the light of. It will consist of four sub-chapters.
Sixth Chapter: Quranic Invocations will be mentioned in the light of. It will include three sub-chapters.
The miracle of Human creation in the Holy Quran is one of the many described miracles. Holy Quran is Allah’s ultimate revelation contains astonishingly accurate details about human development inside the mother’s womb. Had it not been revealed to Prophet Mohammad it would not have been possible to be known to mankind in terms of modern rules of science.
The purpose of the study is to establish a link between modern medicine with exact statements in the Holy Quran in the seventh century A.D., before the science of embryology was established, and to bring to light what was known about the human embryo at the time of revelation of the Holy Quran, and to investigate if any of the statements were really known before seventh century A.D.
For conduction of this study it is imperative to understand the importance of association between linguistic and scientific knowledge, and to comprehend the real essence and original meaning of the word used in the Holy Quran , and to compare them with general believes on the subject held at the time of the revelation of Holy Quran.
The words of Quran are not translatable. The Holy Quran can only be interpreted, as one word has many and different meanings. Therefore it is necessary to compare the interpretation of Holy Quran with the general beliefs about the creation of man before and at the time of the revelation of the Quran. One should have complete scientific knowledge of embryology and genetics up to date. The verses of Holy Quran are to be understood by extensive and deep study of ancient and modern “Tafaseers”, authentic sayings of the prophet and his noble companions the prose and poetry at the time of ignorance, the historical and Theological background of the people and works of Muslim scholars and scientists.
After a detailed comparison it is realized that the statements Of the Holy Quran are in complete agreement with modern scientific data. Modern scientific knowledge has helped us to understand certain verses of the Quran which were impossible to interpret.
Only in the nineteenth century could the Muslim scholars and scientists interpret many scientific miracles with the help of microscope, and other instruments of investigation, which were narrated in the holy Quran fourteen centuries earlier in the pre microscopic era
Al-Hijaz in the Arabs' Travel Literature
Traveling has been very nature of human being and a source of earning since times immemorial. Traveling experiences and observations attract every body's attention in the form of stories. That is why, with the passage of time, travelogue became a genre of literature. Like other languages Arabic is also rich in travelogues. For the Muslims, the land of Hijaz is their center for love and respect, because it is the place where the revelation came and the whole humanity took advantage of it. That is why visiting the holy places Makkah Al-Mukarramah and Al-Madinah Al-Munawwarah has been the wish of every Muslim. As a result, Hijaz became the most frequently visited place in the world. As Hijaz is also a center of knowledge and trade, that is why a great number of travelogues were written about Al-Hijaz particularly in Arabic language. This is why I have selected the topic "Al-Hijaz in the Arabs' Travel Literature".
I have divided this thesis into Abstract, Preface, five chapters, Bibliography and list of contents. First chapter talks about the importance of literature of travelers and it has five sub-chapters. Second chapter is about Hijaz and it has three sub-chapters. Third chapter is about Arab and non-Arab travelogue writers who wrote about Hijaz. Fourth chapter discusses political, economic and religious overview of Hijaz in the light of travelogues. Fifth chapter has three sub-chapters and talks about the styles of travelogues.

Role of Chinese Muslim Scholars in Spreading Arabic Institutes and Islamic Culture in China
Islam is a very old Religion in China and a large number of Muslims living in China. Thisthesis deals with the questions how Chinese Muslim Scholars have been playing their roles in disseminating Arabic language and Islamic culture in China. Their visits abroad to learn Arabic language and increase their knowledge of Islamic civilization have been discussed. The difficulties they have faced in these efforts and their success stories have been mentioned.
These efforts of Chinese Muslim scholars have never been highlighted before. No such material is presently available in any library in China in Arabic. The role of Religious institutions in China for equipping Chinese Muslim scholars with the capability of spreading the message of Almighty Allah in this part of land has also be elaborated. My humble effort has been reached the sources of information and compiled this information in Arabic language.

Poetic Citation in the Tafasir of AI-Qurtubi and Adwa-ul-Bayan Linguistic and Syntactical Comparative Study (Chapters: Al-Ambiya and Al-Haj)
The Holy Quran, which is the last book of Almighty Allah and revealed for the guidance of the whole humanity till the doomsday, is indeed the most important and deserving book for a research scholar to carry out his research on it. Learning of Arabic language is a basic tool for its understanding and the Arabic poetry has its major role in the learning process of this language. Arabic language helps the commentators of the Holy Quran in defining the actual lexical and contextual meaning of the difficult words occurred in the Holy Quran. Among the classical commentators of the Holy Quran, Imam Qurtubi (died in 671 H) is one of those commentators who have very abundantly cited the Arabic poetry in his Tafsir. Likewise, Allama Shinqiti (died in 1393 H) is one of those commentators in the contemporary period who followed the same pattern in his Tafsir. Having a profound love for the Arabic poetry, I carried out my research work in the comparative linguistic and syntactical study of the poetic citation used by these two commentators delimiting the research work to two chapters of the Holy Quran.
This research work is divided into five chapters: Chapter One: deals with the poetic citation, its importance in defining the meanings of the difficult words occurred in the Holy Quran. Chapter Two: deals with the biographies of the two commentators and the characteristics of their commentaries along with pattern followed by them in their Tafasir. Chapter Three: consists of the analytical study of the poetic citation in Tafsir Qurtubi in the two chapters of the Holy Quran mentioned above covering their linguistic and syntactical aspects. Chapter Four: consists of the analytical study of the poetic citation in Tafsir Adwa-ul-Bayan in the two chapters of the Holy Quran mentioned above covering their linguistic and syntactical aspects. Chapter Five: consists of the comparative study between the two commentaries focusing on the similarities and dissimilarities in both of them.
ظاھرۃ الخبر ذکرا و حذفا فی نظم القرآن: دراسۃ نحویۃ و بلاغیۃ
Elimination of the Predicate in the Holy Quran
It is a fact that the Holy Quran, being the last Book revealed by Almighty Allah is perfect in all respects. It contains instructions for the entire humanity and teaches us how to become an excellent human being. One beautiful feature of this Book is its rhetoric and syntax, the richness and grandeur of which cannot be found in any other language of the world. In every language, a sentence consists of 'Subject' and `Predicate'. Sometimes 'Predicate' is deleted from the sentence which makes the language more beautiful and impressive. This feature has been used in the Holy Quran very frequently, which has added to the beauty of the Quranic language.
I have highlighted this aspect in the light of:
1: Elm-Ul-Bayan
2: Elm-U1-Ma'ani
3: Elm-Ul-Badea
Briefly, my thesis consists of an introduction, five chapters and a final conclusion.
First chapter: It deals with Arabic syntax and rhetoric, and has two sub-chapters.
Second chapter: It deals with Arabic rhetoric, where I have concentrated on theoretical study of the issue. It consists of five sub-chapters.
Third chapter: This chapter deals with Predicate in syntax. I have further divided this chapter into three sub-chapters.
Fourth chapter: It deals with Predicative attribution and highlights the elimination of attributed words. I have further divided this chapter into three sub-chapters.
Fifth chapter: This chapter deals with Applied study in which examples of elimination of Predicate have been quoted from the verses of the Holy Quran. It has three sub-chapters.
I am confident that my effort will make the readers more conscious to appreciate the beauty of the language of the Holy Quran. Wallahulmusta'an.
