Abstract

The research investigates the implicit meaning that arises in the semantic order after the linguistic and contextual meaning, specifically in the style of prohibition (Nahy) in the greatest Surah of the Holy Quran (Surah Al-Baqarah). The goal is to reveal the content and intentions of the Quranic discourse by exploring the magnificent interpretations and insights of commentators. This research follows the pragmatic theoretical approach, specifically under the auspices of conversational implicatures, which are divided into two parts: presupposition and implicit statements (implicature). The research focuses on the second part, concluding with its findings and sources at the end of the study.
