Abstract

Since the Holy Quran was revealed in the Arabic language and the Arabic language itself is figurative. Therefore, one of the aspects of the simplicity and comprehensibility of the statement of the Holy Quran is the imagery and concreteness of its mental concepts. As a literary text, the Holy Quran has used all the styles of the literary language in the way of expression, and one of these expressive tools is artistic depiction using simile, metaphor, and metaphor. In addition, each word and each sentence, along with its literal meaning, has a special emotional and emotional capacity affected by feedback and attitudes. In the current Research, it is attempted to psychologically examine artistic depictions in Surah Al-Imran by using a descriptive-analytical method. The preliminary results indicate that the artistic images of this surah are different according to the type of audience and that each of them has high emotional and emotional capacities. One of the important goals of each of the artistic images in this surah is to influence the audience and prepare them mentally to accept the truth and deny falsehood. Each of these pictures can be effective as a tool for mental health and promoting education and morals
