The existence of prosodic or non-prosodic meters in the holy Quran is one of the topics that has been frequently considered by Quranic scholars. Meanwhile, there has been a lot of immoderation in dealing with this issue, the result of which is a lack of a scientific look at meter and its nature, as well as a lack of a comprehensive examination of this topic, in the linguistic structure of the holy Quran. In this article, after the syllabic segmentation of the whole verses of the holy Quran, the most important prosodic patterns, which are used in different types of Persian and Arabic metric poetry, are identified and introduced. The results reveal that a major part of what has been introduced in various sources as metric verses, in most cases, does not have any metric status and has been along with some changes in natural reading of the verses of the holy Quran. In this article, some of the metric verses of the holy Quran, in various forms, patterns, and structures, have been introduced, and the honorable readers can considerably find out the extent and status of the metric verses in the holy Quran by studying these examples. |
