Analysis of conceptual metaphors of "anthropomorphism" in the Holy Quran

The application of new theories of linguistics in the field of understanding the revelations can be a deep, scientific, and accurate look to understand the divine concepts. Metaphor is a concept of new theories in cognitive linguistics that shows that permission is a basic part of human thinking. Without metaphor, it is not possible to understand many phenomena and abstract concepts. A special type of ontological (existential) conceptual metaphor is the personification and anthropomorphism of ideas, objects, and non-human beings, which can greatly help in understanding these phenomena and high concepts in the Holy Quran. The studies conducted show that Quranic concepts such as "right" have been conceptualized as human beings and have moved from their original focus, the unseen world, and appeared before humans in this world. This anthropomorphism of the right and its description of human attributes leads us to the real and tangible existence of an abstract and spiritual concept. Among other phenomena and objects and beings that are depicted in the metaphor of "anthropomorphism" in the Holy Qur'an, we can mention the presence and nobles of death in front of a person, the movement of the night, and the breathing of the morning, the rebelliousness of water and the silence of anger.
