Abstract

After the rhetorical horizons opened up to our daily lives, interest in the phenomenon of metaphor increased greatly, after its cognitive transformation, which recently appeared under the name of imaginative metaphors, which in turn was one of the important rhetorical manifestations, which called for the attention of (cognitive linguistics). In view of the compatibility of cognitive linguistics with the tasks of conceptual metaphors and the study of supplications, this research seeks to investigate the cultural, social and political impact of supplications in the formation of one of the types of conceptual metaphors, namely: ontological or existential metaphors according to the theory of George Lakoff and Mark Johnson, in Their famous book (Metaphors We Live By) in the Supplications of Al-Sahifa Al-Sajjadiyah of Imam Zain Al-Abidin, peace be upon him, due to the latter’s connection to reality, and his impressive ability to reveal its hidden contents. Intellectual, and in enriching the meanings on the other hand through those blessed supplications, and then understanding the world around us. The metaphorical images alone need an extensive and in-depth study, but I find in every supplication of his supplication, peace be upon him, a strong and lofty structure, from the rhetorical methods, worthy of the right to contemplate, and consider its content, for those words emanating from the strong and lofty structure that took place on his tongue, peace be upon him And she humiliatedphor has a distinct rhetoric and each supplication has a special entity, in which there is a spiritual depth and A character of faith, so I looked at the ontological schemes in the supplications of Imam Al-Sajjad, peace be upon him, and came to be truly distinguished from the metaphors that preceded them in terms of their presence in the language of ordinary life for people.
