[IMPLICATURES OF THE IMPERATIVE (USLUB AL-AMR) IN THE QURAN: A SYNTHESIS OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY PERSPECTIVES FROM CLASSICAL ISLAMIC SCHOLARS] IMPLIKATUR GAYA BAHASA PERINTAH (USLUB AL-AMR) DALAM AL-QURAN: SUATU SINTESIS PANDANGAN MULTIDISIPLIN DARIPADA SARJANA ISLAM KLASIK
Abstract
Abstract
The imperative mood (uslub al-amr) is a fundamental linguistic feature permeating the Quranic discourse. Its function, however, extends far beyond its literal meaning as a command, giving rise to a diverse range of pragmatic implicatures. This article aims to provide an analytical literature review, synthesizing the perspectives of several classical Islamic scholars from various disciplines; linguistics, exegesis (tafsir), principles of Islamic jurisprudence (usul al-fiqh), and rhetoric (balaghah), in categorizing and elaborating on the diverse pragmatic implicatures of uslub al-amr. This study traces how each discipline contributes to a more sophisticated understanding of the semantic shift from the denotative domain (demand) to the connotative domain (rhetoric). The synthesis of findings reveals that the Islamic scholarly tradition has constructed a rich taxonomy, identifying more than twenty distinct implicatures. Each implicature is analyzed from a unique viewpoint: linguists focus on form and usage, exegetes on context and theological meaning, Islamic jurisprudence theorists on juridical implications, and rhetoricians on stylistic effect and aesthetic beauty. This multidisciplinary analysis demonstrates that the pragmatic richness of uslub al-amr is a manifestation of the Quran's linguistic miracle, requiring a holistic approach to be fully appreciated.
Keywords: uslub al-amr, pragmatic implicature, Quranic balaghah, multidisciplinary analysis; Quranic rhetoric
Abstrak
Gaya bahasa perintah(uslub al-amr) merupakan ciri linguistik asas yang meresapi wacana al-Quran. Fungsinya, bagaimanapun, melangkaui makna literal sebagai suatu perintah, lalu menghasilkan pelbagai implikatur pragmatik. Artikel ini bertujuan memberikan tinjauan literatur analitis dengan mensintesis pandangan beberapa sarjana Islam klasik daripada pelbagai disiplin; linguistik, tafsir, usul al-fiqh dan balaghah dalam mengkategorikan serta menghuraikan pelbagai implikatur pragmatik uslub al-amr. Kajian ini menelusuri bagaimana setiap disiplin menyumbang kepada pemahaman yang lebih mendalam tentang peralihan semantik daripada domain denotatif (tuntutan) kepada domain konotatif (retorik). Sintesis dapatan menunjukkan bahawa tradisi keilmuan Islam telah membina taksonomi yang kaya, mengenal pasti lebih daripada dua puluh implikatur yang berbeza. Setiap implikatur dihuraikan daripada sudut tertentu; ahli linguistik menumpukan perhatian pada bentuk dan penggunaan; ahli tafsir pada konteks dan makna teologi; ahli usul al-fiqh pada implikasi hukum; manakala ahli balaghah pada kesan gaya dan keindahan estetika. Analisis multidisiplin ini membuktikan bahawa kekayaan pragmatik uslub al-amr merupakan manifestasi keajaiban linguistik al-Quran yang memerlukan pendekatan holistik untuk difahami sepenuhnya.
Kata kunci: uslub al-amr, implikatur pragmatik, balaghah Qurani, analisis multidisiplin, retorik Qurani.
