التضرع بايات الكتاب المقدس الانكليزية والاحاديث النبوية العربية: دراسة لغوية تداولية

الملخص

Supplication, as one of the most crucial parts of religious rituals in many religions such as English biblical verses and Arabic prophetic hadiths, can express misery, guide, help and request things from a higher authority (God). This study seeks to examine the pragmatic behavior of supplication in both English biblical verses and Arabic Prophetic hadiths. Be contingent with Searle’s (1969, 1979) treatment of SAs and Kareem (2009) felicity conditions of supplication, 25 biblical verses and 25 Prophetic hadiths are chosen to be pragmatically analyzed utilizing mixed methods research. The analysis reveals that both texts underscore personal emotions and heavenly direction, with supplication functioning as both an expressive and prescriptive act via the use of various syntactic structures and lexical items.
