The most eloquent book of Allah is the Holy Quran is. The Quranic Scholars have served its eloquent points, since its very beginning, because of their insist interpretation of and love with the Quranic language Arabic. So Quran is in the focus and epicenter of many rhetorical discourses discussed by the rhetoricians, and "iltifat" is one of these. The word "iltifat" means interpreting from one perspective or style or focus of meaning to another perspective or style or focus of meaning i.e. from first person to second or third person, or vice versa, similarly, from plural to singular, or vice versa, and from past to future, or vice versa, and from feminine to masculine or vice versa etc. By an adequate understanding of Topic:"iltifat inter singular and plural, and its eloquent points in the Holy Quran ", we can easily infer that the Holy Quran is very eloquent and the most rhetorical book in all over the Arabic books. In this research paper the researcher has given eleven examples for  this kind of “iltifat” from the Holy Quran, and proved that Quran is the very eloquent statements, through this rhetorical discourse "iltifat from singular to plural or vice versa ".

The first person was taught the names of everything (arrest), and the language was born cumulatively subject to the factor of space-time and human need. After the advent of Islam, the Arabic language evolved with the decline of the Holy Quran, because the Arabic language before the descent of the Qur'an was classified into poetry and prose. When the Quran came down, the linguistic expressions in the three Arabic languages became Quran, poetry and prose. There is no doubt that the Arabic language reached the height of its glory and rose in the era of Islam because it became part of religion, and in the era of prophecy and the origin of Islam, people take care of Arabic a lot and are keen on it because it is the language of the Koran and religion and the true and faithful messenger. Other factors affecting the development of Arabic are political, social and cultural factors.

The holy book Quran is revealed by Allah Almighty and it is truly the literal word of Allah Almighty several evidences on this claim has been provided in the holy Quran itself with sane reasoning not only this but Allah Almighty has challenged in the holy Quran all the creations that if anyone claims that this holy book Quran is not the literal word of Allah Almighty or if someone thinks that it has been fabricated then why don’t those people try to bring something like Quran. It has been more than fourteen hundred years that challenge has remain unbeaten and during all those years nobody has ever come up with such a perfect book which tells you all about the entire system of the universe and in fact beyond the system of universe. This challenge by Allah Almighty in the holy Quran has made everyone helpless, even in the modern age of information technology where access to any sort of information is just few clicks away.

The former orientalist conceived that the Holy Quran came as a result of efforts done by prophet, but there are orientalists who believe that it was not due to the efforts by human but it came over the passage of time. Generally, the orientalists made every effort to affront the true and holy image of last prophet PBUH-the final messenger of Allah as well as the Quran, (revealed words of Allah) in a bid to create ambiguity and hurt the reliability of both. They also left no opportunity to touch and allegedly refer to as Satanic verses. Some of them who are more significant in paying heed specifically to this issue in their work are Karen Armstrong, Montgomery Watt and Maxims Robinson. According to objective of their work is to prove this fallacy that Quran does not come due to revelation from Allah. But, most famous Muslim scholars like Al-Qurtabi, Al-Radi, Qadi Ayaz and Ibn alArabi provided proofs that this is only myth and Satanic verses have no base at all. The article is focused to analyse the Orientalists views on the satanic verses and their drastic failure in upholding their objectivity pertaining to the false story. This research paper is intended to study that how they failed in proving the major objectives of the false story.

The current research paper explores some morphosyntax-related semantic and pragmatic dimension losses in three English translations of the meanings of Sūrah AlKahf of Mohammed A.S Abdel- Hakeem, Mohammed M. Pickthall, and Mohammed Khan and Mohammed Taj Al-Din Al-Hilai . Also, the study aims at probing the reasons that lead to these semantic and pragmatic losses, either partial or complete. The two researchers utilized the qualitative descriptive paradigm, which is proper and apt to this study because the Holy Quran rendition is multiplex and cannot be deeply examined adopting another alternative research paradigm. Markedly, the qualitative descriptive paradigm is apt to analyze the data extracted from the three translations of Mohammed A.S Abdel- Hakeem, Mohammed M. Pickthall, and Mohammed Khan and Mohammed Taj Al-Din Al-Hilai Abdel of Surah AlKahf .The study indicated losses in renditions, tense, verbs, losses of consistency and morphosyntax grouping, and culture-specific terms. The study also revealed that the morphosyntax-related semantic and pragmatic dimension losses might lead to meaning losses, fixed expressions, idioms, or culture-specific terms. This study recommends that the translators of the Holy Quran in general and the translators of Surah AlKahf, notably, employ suitable translation strategies to decrease the morphosyntax-related semantic and pragmatic dimension losses in the translation of the Holy Quran.

Hafiz Ibne Kathir (R.A….) was a scholar of the 8th century of Hijra. He had command over many sciences of the Islamic studies, like:Quran, Hadith, fiqh, Seerat and history. He was a prolific writer and left a number of books which are used in the Islamic world as reference books. He wrote an exegsis of the Holy Quran and named it; Tafseer-ul-Quran el Azeem (commonly known as Tafseer Ibne Kathir) One of his books; Al-Fusul Fi Ekhtisare Seerat Al-Rasool is one of his book about the life of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW). The book is spread over four hundred pages. The writer divided it into two sections. The first part contains discussions on the Seerat of the Holy Prophet (SAW) and the battles which he fought for the sake of Islam commonly known as Maghazi. The second part contains discussion on the lifestyle, habits and the reasons of the Prophethood. The unique style of Ibne Kathir, in this book is that the writer extracts jurisprudential aspect from the life of the Holy Prophet (SAW). The writer explains all these with the help of the Holy Quran and the authentic sources of Seerat. The writer has tried his level best to bring only authentic narrations. If the views of scholars are different about the date and location of any event, Ibne kathir himself do research and tried to prove certain facts in the light of logic. And many scholars admit his logic follow it. A few of the narrations coated by Ibne kathir are weak in a sense but they are very short in counting. Because of this style, many scholars have coated Ibne kathir in the field of Seerat. This research paper discusses the unique and scholarly style of Ibne kathir and also discusses the methodology of Ibne kathir adopted by him in his book.

The current research paper involves exploring the word ‘sky’ in the Holy Quran. The aims are to show the meanings of the word ‘sky’ in the Holy Quran and also to show the effect of the Quranic Surahs’ classification on the context of the verse. Thus, the analytical method has been adopted side by side with statistical analysis of the word ‘sky’ as mentioned in the surahs of the Holy Quran. The results show that the word ‘sky’ comes in four intended meanings, first, in the meaning of ‘clouds’, second, in the meaning of ‘sky’, third, in the meaning of ‘rain’, and fourth in the meaning of ‘height’. In addition, the results show that the word ‘sky’ comes in both classifications of the Quranic Surahs performing a great rhetorical role according to the place of revelation of the Quranic Surah and according to the addressee. Moreover, the results show that the context of the Quranic verse is possible to come within a group of preceding verses or following verses making one context that comes together with intended divine purposes.

The Holy Quran is an infinite ocean which benefits everyone to the extent of their scientific ability and scope of existence. This divine book would not be only a text; rather, its interpretation and explanation open various chapters of science, wisdom, and knowledge to human beings. Therefore, the only way to enter this gate of science, wisdom, and knowledge is its interpretation. Up to now, various approaches and interpretive books have been emerged to decipher and decode this divine blessing, but non of them has been perfect, and each is considered as a defect. Therefore, the best and the safest way would be to refer to a new definition of the “comprehensive” interpretation. In the following research paper, we will try to express the need and necessity of applying a comprehensive approach to the interpretation of the Holy Quran, providing a new definition of it in the description of the divine words.
