Abstract:

The present study investigates the speech acts in the “Supplication of Repenters” by Imam Ali Al-Sajjad (PBUH) pragmatically. It mainly aims at identifying the types of speech acts, macro strategies and auxiliary speech acts in “Supplication of Repenters” and specifying the most commonly used ones. In the same line with the aims, this study hypothesises that representatives and directives are the most main speech acts used, the macro strategies of stating, asserting and requesting are used, and Justification and explanation are the most dominant auxiliary speech acts used in “Supplication of Repenters”. Certain procedures are adopted to achieve the aims and to test the validity of the hypotheses: Presenting a theoretical survey concerning the field of pragmatics, Speech act theory, religious discourse and supplication and its types and analyzing the text qualitatively as well as quantitatively.
