Abstract

Some Quranic scholars in the last century have proposed the theory of the “Qur'anic couples’ system”. This theory addresses the widespread and necessary connection between the two Surahs of the Holy Quran. The purpose of this research is to illustrate the types of contextual relationships between Surah Al-Fath and Al-Hujurat and seek to answer the following questions: Is the viewpoint of the couple system of chapters chimerical and Personalization, or can it be defended by textual evidences? And does this theory have the capacity to be taken seriously in Qur'anology? Accordingly, it has been attempted to further demonstrate the literal and semantic connection between the two chapters and show how a deeper and more accurate understanding of both chapters can be achieved with such a view. Hence, this paper, after outlining the theoretical foundations of the issues, deals with the design and explanation of the different types of communication in the two chapters, and reinforce the hypothesis that the two Surahs have a symmetrical structure and are two on the same coin. And most of the connections between the two chapters are shared by each of the two Surahs from two different angles, so that they complement each other.
