Abstract

In the Qur'an, changes in morphological patterns (wazan) not only produce grammatical variations, but also give birth to differences in meaning. One of the most productive roots in the Qur'an is the root [س-ل-م], which gives birth to various derivations. The word سلم is often interpreted in a limited way as "peace" or "Islam". This study aims to identify all derivations  of the root [س-ل-م], classify its morphological form, and analyze its core meaning and semantic development in the translation of the Qur'an of the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative-descriptive design with a morpho-semantic approach. Data were collected through a documentation technique by tracing all Qur'anic verses containing derivatives of the root, then analyzed through the stages of identification, morphological classification, determination of core meaning, and contextual analysis. The results showed that the root س-ل-م (s-l-m) appeared 140 times with 16 derivative forms, dominated by the nominal form (112 data) rather than the verbal (28 data). Semantically, these roots form a network of meanings that include existential salvation, spiritual surrender, theological systems (Islam), collective identity (Muslim), social peace, and cosmic surrender. This study confirms that the concept of salvation in the Qur'an is multidimensional and linguistically structured.

Abstract

Song lyrics are a form of language expression that contains emotional and symbolic meaning so that it can represent the experience of romance in a complex way. In modern Arabic popular music, Nancy Ajram's song Albi Ya Albi features a romanticism that not only portrays love as a simple feeling, but also presents inner conflict, longing, emotional uncertainty, and the need for validation of feelings. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the form of signifiers and signifiers and explain the construction of the meaning of romanticism in the lyrics of the song using Ferdinand de Saussure's semiotic approach. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with data sources in the form of lyrics of the song Albi Ya Albi in Arabic. Analysis techniques are carried out through repeated reading, marker identification, sign interpretation, grouping of romantic meanings, and structural analysis of the relationship between markers and signs. The results show that the meaning of romanticism in songs is built through five main patterns, namely inner conflict, emotional helplessness, gradual awareness of love, emotional continuity, and emotional validation. The findings suggest that romanticism in songs is represented as ambivalent, reflective, and relational emotional experiences in the context of modern Arab popular culture. This research contributes to the study of semiotics, the lyrical analysis of Arabic songs, and the study of romanticism in popular music by showing that Ferdinand de Saussure's semiotics is able to uncover the systematic construction of romantic meaning through the relationship between linguistic forms and emotional meanings.
