Abstract

The article describes a role of teaching stylistics in the correct interpretation of noble purposes of the Quran verses. The meaning of the Quran text, which amazed linguists with its linguistic miracle, will be revealed. Since the main source of Islam - Quran - was written and preserved in Arabic, the influence of the rules of the Arabic language is natural. For this reason, the importance of the knowledge of stylistics for Islamic scholars to understand the details of Quran has been proven. Especially to understand the anthropomorphic, legal regulations in the Quran verses, it is necessary to know nuances of the Arabic language. The Arabic linguistics and Islamic studies are interrelated. Over the past thirty years, religious and political groups have interpreted the Quran verse in accordance with their own goals, misleading ordinary people who do not know the Arabic language, which has led to a division in society. As part of the efforts to revive religious identity, one of the main issues brought up for public discussion was the correct interpretation of the Quran texts. Initiatives were taken to familiarize society with traditional religious teachings. In this direction, the correct understanding of the purpose of the Quran was analyzed from lingo-semantic and rhetorical point of view. The conclusion was also made about the importance of the analysis of stylistic categories such as tashbih, majaz mursal, istiara, kinaya. Linguistic litera manifestations of Kazakh and Arabic linguistics are considered in the comparative perspective.
