Abstract

Previous studies have generally examined the narrative of Isra' and Mi'raj from historical or jurisprudential perspectives, leaving a distinct research gap regarding the linguistic aesthetic dimensions of classical religious prose. Addressing this, this study aims to analyze the classification and rhetorical functions of the As-Saja’ (rhymed prose) stylistic device in the book Nurul Wahhāj fī Qiṣṣōti Isrā’ Wal Mi’rāj. This descriptive qualitative research employs a balaghah (rhetorical) approach focusing on 'Ilm al-Badi’, utilizing content analysis on the primary manuscript. The results identified 141 forms of As-Saja’, comprising Mutharraf (77 data), Mutawazi (56 data), and a minor portion of Murashsha’ (8 data). The dominance of Mutharraf and Mutawazi demonstrates that the author integrated rhyme as a systematic rhetorical strategy, not merely as a decorative ornament. In conclusion, As-Saja’ crucially functions to guide reading intonation, reinforce the retention of religious messages, and establish phonetic cohesion that optimizes the spiritual impact on readers

Abstract

Authoritarian oppression often silences freedom, yet simultaneously triggers resistance tactics from the oppressed. This dynamic is depicted in Alaa Al-Aswany’s novel Jumhuriyyatu Ka’anna, set during the 2011 Egyptian Revolution. This descriptive qualitative research aims to analyze the forms of open and closed resistance, along with their underlying factors, using a sociology of literature approach and James C. Scott's theory. Results indicate that open resistance manifests through demonstrations, labor strikes, verbal confrontations, visual campaigns, institutional disobedience, and physical resistance. Meanwhile, closed resistance is executed covertly through false compliance, sabotage, evasion, safe space creation, disguise, and withdrawal from the system. These resistances are driven by extreme human rights violations, formal justice system failures, and economic exploitation. The scientific contribution of this study lies in recontextualizing Scott's theory from traditional agrarian societies to a modern urban landscape, revealing novel resistance tactics through the use of visual technology and religious attributes. In conclusion, authoritarian hegemony is never absolute, as the subordinate class consistently finds ways to nurture resistance.
