A Study on the pictography of Kinesthetic verbs in Shoarā Chapter

Imaging is one of the literary aspects of theology and in the meantime, contemporary theorists have explored the element of image in the Holy Qur'an to find the roots of this rhetorical technique. Among the Qur'anic chapters, Shoarā contains several images from the history of the tribes of the prophets such as Noah, Hood, Saleh, Lot and Shoaib (AS). The main foundation of these tribes is movement and endeavor. Therefore, using a descriptive-analytical method, the author has investigated of the type of motor verbs in the element of pictography of these stories and the reason for their dominance will be examined. The dominance of the verbs of the transitional movement over the other verbs indicates the rhythmic and tangible image of the stories which is integrated with the images that are full of great torments. Among the verbs of transitional movement, horizontal transitional movement is more prominent than other verbs reflecting human's actions reflection to himself as indices such as horizontal kinesthetic verbs include concepts such as commuting, presence and absence, speed and power. The outcome of human life is present at different intervals and show itself in an individual's life with proportionate speed and power at all times, because God bounces back the reflection of every human action to him at some point in time. Good and evil are all moving in their horizontal course whose result will reach man. Thus, in this surah, which is full of depicting the destiny of past tribes, we see the use of this type of movement that always indicates the return of action to human and thus the connection of the theme is manifested more in this surah.
