Abstract :

Abstract Use of language as a social phenomenon and a social life necessity, is a feature of socialized human. Linguistic studies in the Arab began to appear world with the revelation of the Quran. Terms are a part of language and to study the emergence, growth and transformation, meaning and function of words is a part of linguistic knowledge. In this research we aim to clarify the position of the Holy Quran as a unique phenomenon among other linguistic phenomena from the perspective of linguistics. Use of this term presents the widespread view of the Holy Qur'an and it is considered a miracle in style and text that is special to the Holy Qur'an. On this basis, from the perspective of linguistic we look at the linguistic competence of the Holy Quran and we will study the use of the word “Ummah” and the symbols of its superiority in terms of its obligations and duties, and acceptance by the people, and eventually great commentators.
