Abstract
The underlying rhetorical meanings in conjunction, disjunction, masculine and feminine forms only appear when they are fully understood. The rationale of this paper is that the overall meaning may not be complete unless these meanings are explored. The purpose of this paper is to explore the meanings of conjunction, disjunction and identify the secrets of masculinization and feminization in the Quran. The study adopted the analytical approach by tracing the Quranic verses that contain these rhetorical meanings. The findings show that conjunction and disjunction are significantly represented in the Quranic verses, yet only little attention has been given to them by Qira’at (i.e. recitations or readings) scholars. It was also found that masculinization and feminization appear only when the overall meaning of verses is explored and they are linked to the preceding and subsequent verses.
