The first, the Qur'anic proportionality with its various kinds: moral, verbal and vocal which exists in the ending of the Qur’anic verses represents one of the outstanding features of the Qur’anic stylistics, and a form of its eloquence. That is because it makes the meanings of the verses clearer and more lucid. In addition, the Qur’anic eloquence through its rhythm and beats of the endings of verses has a deep impact on the Qur’an’s hearers and reciters. Also, the Qur’anic stories are a major part of the Qur’anic miracle in the linguistic eloquence because it includes divine issues and indications. Above all. The presence of identical verses in the Holy Qur’an is not in vain, but it came for a divine wisdom. Therefore, it requires a deeper contemplation so that we can be influenced by the Qur’an, and understand Allah’s will and wisdom of making it a life constitution.
