<![CDATA[The study of the relationship between linguistic structure and theological meaning in the Qur’an is a crucial dimension within i‘jaz al-Qur’an studies, particularly in Surah Al-Ikhlas, which articulates the concept of monotheism (tawhid) in a comprehensive form. However, previous scholarship tends to separate syntactic analysis, which is largely descriptive, from theological interpretation, which is normative, resulting in a fragmented understanding of the interaction between linguistic form and meaning construction. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of the nominal sentence structure (jumlah ismiyyah) in Surah Al-Ikhlas and to examine its stylistic-syntactic implications for the construction of tawhid. This research employs a qualitative library-based approach using Qur’anic stylistics (al-uslubiyyah al-Qur’aniyyah) combined with syntactic and semantic-theological analysis. The findings reveal that the dominance of jumlah ismiyyah conveys the semantic value of al-thubut wa al-istimrar, emphasizing the permanence and stability of divine attributes. Furthermore, the use of Dhamir al-Sha’n, the lexical selection of Aḥad, the al-qashr construction in aṣ-Ṣamad, and the syntactic inversion and negation patterns collectively construct a layered theological framework encompassing tawhid al-dhat, tawhid al-sifat, and tanzih. These results indicate that Qur’anic syntactic structures function not merely as grammatical devices, but also as epistemological instruments in systematically constructing and affirming the concept of monotheism.]]>
