This research addresses the particles of meaning and structure (huruf al-ma?ani wa al-mabani) in Arabic texts and the Noble Qur’an, examining their meanings in Qur’anic verses and Arabic poetry. Each particle of meaning in the Arabic language carries a specific significance within texts, sentences, and Qur’anic verses. As for the particles of structure, they play a role in the composition and formation of words, Particles of meaning are particularly notable for the semantic and interpretive weight they carry in Arabic texts, words, and sentences. Various scholarly works have focused on studying and explaining these particles, and the researcher has drawn from these sources to clarify their implications and guide textual interpretation, The importance of this study lies in highlighting the role of particles in the Arabic language, especially in sentence parsing (i?rab) and the interpretation of words. The research also elucidates the meanings and purposes of Arabic texts and the Qur’an. These particles greatly influence grammatical functions they may indicate nominative, accusative, jussive, or genitive cases which, in turn, leads to shifts in sentence meaning and interpretation, Moreover, the study emphasizes their significance in phonetics, since a particle is fundamentally a sound used in the construction of words. Particles also serve to connect phrases and clauses in both prose and poetry, thereby influencing semantic direction and interpretation, Words and sentences are composed of these particles, as language is a system of sounds through which each people express their intentions. The particle is the fundamental phonetic unit of the word. Words are formed from these phonetic units, sentences from words, and phrases from sentences. Therefore, the particle forms the foundation of language structure, Hence, studying particles, explaining them, detailing their functions, and clarifying their meanings and connotations in words and sentences is of critical importance. This study of particles and their implications aligns with the broader interest in Arabic language, especially in the context of the Qur’an. It contributes to Arabic linguistic and Qur’anic scholarship and enriches various fields such as grammar, morphology, rhetoric, literature, criticism, and prosody, Additionally, it reveals the beauty of the Arabic language and its distinctive phonetic, semantic, and rhetorical characteristics.
