Speech Acts In The Treatise on Rights by Imam Al-Sajjad (peace be upon him), Human Rights (example)

Abstract

Speech acts are among the vital deliberative topics, as they stand at the power of achieving and influencing the addressee according  to  verbal acts, and seek to achieve specific  goals. Applying this theory to the religious text through the words of the Infallible (peace be upon him) regarding human rights and duties achieves a scientific and religious achievement at the same time, because it reveals the intentions of the speaker with religious authority in a circumstance of silence and the ineffectiveness of his authority explicitly. It charts the path to a sound and clear investigation of a person’s relationship with his Lord, with his society, and with himself. We have studied the treatise on rights by Imam al-Sajjad (peace be upon him) to determine this purpose by applying the theory of the speech act that Austin founded and completed by

Searle and their role in creating this theory.
