A Semiotic Prospective to the Translation of Natural Symbols in Quran

A Semiotic Prospective to the Translation of Natural Symbols in Quran

The present research tries to explorate and interprets some of mysterious signsin Quran on the basis of a semiotic approach.These signs have deep concepts and are required to be deciphered. There are many words in Quran serving as signs which convey particular concepts. These words are basically well-known as “signs of Quran”. Thus, this study aims to extract some of these signs particularly including natural signs which are mostly served as metaphor. As semiotics is fundamentally concerned with the construction and interpretation of any sign system, it offers a comprehensive method for the signification of signs by considering Saussurean and Peircean models. According to this approach, the findings indicate that rhetorical textualization of Quran is a kind of symbolization, which gives a poetic feature to its content. Therefore, many signs have been applied in Quran and are mostly related to the natural phenomena. There is still room for the signification of these signs.
