The Dialogical Argumentation between Allah and Iblis in the Quranic Text: A Logical Demonstrative Reading

Abstract

This research ‘The Dialogical Argumentation between Allah and Iblis in the Quranic Text: A Logical Demonstrative Reading’ came in the light of the argumentation theory with its logical representations, linguistic instruments and psychological demonstration. The topic displays the central textualities of the study embodied in the holy contexts where the dialogue between Allah and Iblis was presented regarding the theme of prostrating before Adam in four sites: Al-A›raf, Al-Hijr, Al-Isra and Sad. These dialogues commenced with debate and argument where two adversary visions of faith and infidelity were distinguished. The holy text aimed to demonstrate the appositeness of the absolute truth for the cosmic recipient under which we are necessarily joined beside the explicit recipient that was represented by Angels, Adam the prostrated to and Iblis who refused to prostrate. This argumentation was a nucleus out of which Iblis launched the first infidelity. This leads to state that the Quranic argumentative logic in general is guided by this core logic, the study of which is of considerable significance.In another sequence, the research studied the narratives that recounted the prostration story in four sites also: Al-Baqarah, Al-Nisaa, Al-Kahf and Taha. The image of Iblis in the holy text The research was prefaced with the historical and epistemological background of the argumentation theories, then with essential topics discussing the logical consideration of the holy texts in question. These topics are first: Conviction methods including argumentative premises, reductio proof, dilemma, paradox and argumentation scale. Second: linguistic argumentation. Third: narrative argumentation. Forth: Argumentation and Psychological. The research was concluded with the main finding.
