Abstract
Introduction
The Holy Quran, as a repository of knowledge and treasures of sciences, has always attracted the attention of scholars. In terms of content, it contains novel themes and in terms of rhetoric, it contains the most beautiful rhetorical techniques. One of the beautiful manifestations that is clearly and strikingly evident in this divine book is the vivid and original images that have been created through the use of multiple words and expressions, such that if the Holy Quran is viewed as a text, its verses can be weighed in a stylistic scale and its beauties revealed to the reader. Based on stylistic knowledge, this research attempts to analyze the stylistic features of Surah Al-Furqan and answer the following questions.
What are the linguistic features of Surah Al-Furqan from a stylistic perspective?
What is the structure of the literary features of Surah Al-Furqan from a stylistic perspective?

Discuss
One way to prove the miracle of the Holy Quran is in its eloquence and rhetoric. Paying attention to the miracle of the Quran from the perspective of stylistics indicates that there is a close relationship between the beauty, order, and verbal rhythm of the Quran and its lofty meanings and concepts, and that syllabic and phonetic variables are accompanied and harmonized with semantic variables.

-In Surah Al-Furqan, verses that have a single semantic context also have a single phonetic context.
-The ideological layer is one of the effective principles in determining the structural form of layered stylistics; therefore, the ideological factor affects the syntax and the structure of sentences is transformed and marked under the influence of beliefs.
