Abstract
The works Deposited for us from the family of the Prophet (PBUH) are among the most prominent and beautiful texts in every period and time. Therefore, this requires every researcher to use his scientific ability to discover the aesthetics of this great Islamic heritage and express it. Since words have a great contribution to understanding the author’s style, evaluating the craftsmanship and eloquence of the literary text, and understanding the ideas of the text and its hidden and hidden themes, analyzing them as one of the components of the literary text greatly helps the researcher to explore different aspects of the individual work by examining the category. Among the different types of linguistic elements, knowing the words is a means of accurately identifying the art and eloquence of the writings of the Infallible Imam (AS) and distinguishing them from the style of the non-innocent, and since the supplications and prayers of the Infallible Imam (PBUH) are one of the most important literary genres, and are considered one of the religions of high literary importance in terms of language and speech; Given the importance of this topic and the reliance on the descriptive analytical research method, this article has addressed this part of Imam Reza’s (PBUH) writings and to investigate the category of choosing words and their different forms in Imam Reza’s (PBUH) prayer. Mohammad Abtahi wrote a book entitled (Al-Sahifa Al-Ridhawi Al-Jami’a) with the aim of answering questions such as how words are used, their types and different functions in Imam Reza’s (PBUH) prayer and their frequency in the variety. The methods and topics were discussed. He used more abstract, symbolic, explicit and specific words in his prayer and was interested in the compatibility of words with the topic of prayer and the situations and topics used in it.
