Abstract

from past ‎to present, have taken note of word implications when parsing. In the ‎hHoly Quran, which is itself the most important reason for the ‎development and evolution of syntax, there are deep relationships ‎between syntactic roles and implications, So much so that in some ‎verses of the Quran, the expected role of a word has a significant effect ‎on its implications. By parsing in the Arabic language, it is meant that a ‎word may adopt different roles depending on its place in a sentence and ‎each role can change the meaning of that sentence. This study relies on ‎the descriptive-analytical method to employ parsing as a powerful tool ‎to identify the different roles and their appropriate implications. In ‎addition, this study examines the different roles and their implications ‎based on the evidence and examples from the verses of Al-Baqarah, in ‎the Holy Quran. The results of this study show that the most important ‎reasons that result in meaning extension or change in the Holy Quran ‎include uncertainty in the kinds of word status, uncertainty in the ‎morphological structures of words, multiple roles sharing in one status, ‎and places of stop.‎
