Abstract : This study aims to investigate and demonstrate specializations of the Chapters in the Holy Quran for competency and theorization purposes through demonstrating meaning and related aspects. It also aims to investigate the effect of such specialization in interpretation of verses of the Holy Quran. Importance of the study lies in its correlation to ALLAH’s divine book; and highlighting the endless miraculous aspects in the Holy Quran. When reading verses of the Holy Quran, one would find stories, topics, provisions, and several statements and words that are frequently repeated among its chapters. Here lies the problem of this study. It is ‘Does each and every chapter in the Holy Quran have its own specialization with this frequent repetition?’; ‘What is the special characteristics of each and every chapter in the Holy Quran?’; and ‘To what specialization of each and every chapter in the Holy Quran is related?’. This study aims to identify the specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran, the characteristics of every chapter as much as possible, its title and intention. Additionally, it intends to highlight the relationship between specializations of the Chapter and its title and purpose; and the effect of such specializations in interpretation. It also intends to differentiate between the specializations of Chapters and characteristics of the Holy Quran; highlight the relationship between specializations of Chapters and the frequent repetition in the Holy Quran. To this aim, the researcher has used the descriptive methodology to study the basic terminology and vocabulary related to the study with full and detailed description; and the inductive methodology in tracing and compilation of specializations of every Chapter in the Holy Quran; inferential methodology in inferring specializations of every Chapter in the Holy Quran. The study handles the second half of Chapters in the Holy Quran: from Surat Maryam up to Surat Al-nass. The study is divided into two sections. The first section is concerned with the theoretical aspect. It has five subsections as follows. Subsection (1): Definition of terms of the study. It covers the definition of specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran; differentiation between these terms and similar terminology in addition to characteristics and features of Chapters in the Holy Quran. Subsection (2): It covers the types of specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran. Subsection (3): It handles issues with respect to specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran. These are as follows: Specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran, titles of Chapters, specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran and their purposes; specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran and their topics; Specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran and the circumstances of revelation of such chapter. Subsection (4): It handles frequent repetition and specialization in Chapters of the Holy Quran. Subsection (5): It intends to demonstrate the effect of specializations of Chapters in the Holy Quran over interpretation. The second section is mainly concerned with the applied aspect of the study. In this section, Surat Maryam up to Surat Alnass will be studied in order to recognize the characteristics of each chapter in addition to an overview about every chapter. I have prepared a short introduction for each Chapter. My research came up with numbers of specializations in this part of the holy Quran around (194) specializations. (62) specializations for the Medinan Chapters which are (21) Chapters in total and (133) specializations for the Meccan which are (75) Chapters in total. Thereafter comes the conclusion, which contains the recommendations and results that I have concluded, followed by the indexes. May Allah’s prayers, peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Mohummad, his family and his companions.
