Abstract

One of the pragmatic approaches in language that makes it possible to read religious texts as a discourse is the critical discourse analysis approach. In the present study, using a descriptive-analytical method, the areas of struggle in the Qur'an with regard to the verses that explicitly or implicitly refer to jihad and based on Fairclough's critical discourse analysis approach at three levels of description, interpretation and explanation, case It was analyzed and examined in order to obtain a new understanding of the discourse of Mujahideen in the Qur'an, taking into account the social, cultural and value structures in which the text is based. Jihad Discourse Network in the face of the discourse order in the ignorant and polytheistic society at the time of revelation and the subsequent periods of revelation, by placing the principle of defense and struggle in the way of God, as the central sign of jihad discourse in the Qur'an, a set of elements and Has redefined conceptual values, and through this new value system, areas of struggle have been redefined. The discourse of mujahedeen in the Qur'an led to the redefinition of new conceptual and value structures at the time of revelation and, consequently, in later periods, and changed many semantic domains in circulation in society. The most important of these changes is the reproduction of power relations in society.
