Abstract

Dialogue in the Holy Qur’an is considered one of the essential rhetorical techniques used to vividly express unseen events, conveying profound meanings and depicting invisible occurrences in a compelling manner. Rhetorical studies often focus on analyzing rhetorical elements without linking them to Qur’anic dialogue or limit their scope to dialogue themes without delving into their aesthetic aspects. Thus, this research aims to analyze the rhetorical aesthetics of Qur’anic dialogue in depicting the scenes of the Day of Judgment, emphasizing how dialogue is employed to highlight these events in a way that enhances both intellectual and emotional comprehension. The study seeks to identify Qur’anic dialogues related to the Day of Judgment and provide examples from Qur’anic verses and analyzing their rhetorical elements. The study adopts a descriptive-analytical approach in analyzing Quranic texts related to scenes of the Barzakh (intermediate state), resurrection, judgment, paradise, and hell, while exploring the impact of rhetorical techniques in vividly illustrating these scenes with expressive power. One of the key findings of the study is that dialogue in the Quran serves as a rhetorical tool that brings unseen scenes to life, increasing their emotional and intellectual impact on the reader. Additionally, it clarifies spiritual meanings in an eloquent and captivating manner, helping readers achieve a deeper understanding of the Quranic messages.
