Abstract

The Holy Quran possesses a plurality of significations and connotations, and the comprehension and elucidation of said significations are intrinsically tied to the unveiling of the contextual factors and evidentiary substantiation that surround the text in terms of circumstances and literary components. The purpose of this investigation is to observe a noteworthy phenomenon in the realm of linguistic studies that assumes an influential and prominent function in guiding the text, which is the effect of clues in directing meanings and connotations. The researches methodology employed is of a descriptive and analytical nature. This approach involves extracting the evidence found in the interpretations of Al-Qurtubi and Ibn Ashour. Subsequently, the description of this evidence is elucidated, followed by an analysis of its impact on directing the intended meaning. The research has yielded several findings, one of which is the significant influence of grammatical signs on the direction of meaning, according to Al-Qurtubi and Ibn Ashour. This is due to the fact that meanings can be manifold and vary depending on the grammatical interpretation, thereby affording the text extensive and meaningful connotations.
