Makna dan Retorik dalam Surah Yasin: Analisis Korpus Stilistik
Abstract
Kajian ini meneliti jalinan antara makna dan retorik dalam surah Yasin melalui pendekatan korpus stilistik. Surah Yasin yang dianggap sebagai jantung al-Quran memaparkan dimensi kerohanian, teologi dan linguistik yang mendalam, namun pola leksikal-semantik dan strategi stilistiknya masih kurang ditekankan, terutamanya melalui gabungan analisis kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk: (1) menganalisis pola leksikal-semantik surah Yasin menggunakan kaedah korpus; (2) meneliti kewujudan unsur stilistik; dan (3) menilai kesatuan unsur tersebut dalam mengukuhkan fungsi persuasif dan didaktik surah ini. Secara metodologi, kajian ini menggunakan teks digital surah Yasin, menjalankan analisis frekuensi, kolokasi dan medan semantik melalui perisian seperti LancsBox dan AntConc, serta melengkapkannya dengan analisis stilistik berasaskan kerangka Leech dan Short (2007) serta Simpson (2004) yang memberi fokus kepada pengulangan, paralelisme, metafora dan pola bunyi. Dapatan menunjukkan tema kehidupan, kematian dan kebangkitan mendominasi landskap semantik dan sering disertai perangkat stilistik yang memperkukuh kesan emosi dan kognitif. Pengulangan dan struktur paralel menekankan konsep teologi, manakala unsur metafora dan fonologi meningkatkan daya ingatan serta sentuhan rohani. Perkataan مبين menonjol sebagai elemen penegasan wahyu, manakala قال mengatur struktur dialogik yang memperhebat kesan retorik. Dengan demikian, kajian ini menyerlahkan keindahan bahasa al-Quran sebagai wahana persuasif dan reflektif, sekali gus memperluas sumbangan kepada bidang pengajian al-Quran, linguistik Arab dan korpus stilistik melalui model analisis bersepadu yang dapat digunakan dalam kajian teks-teks suci yang lain.
