الملخص EN

-This study deals with the situationality, as one of the seven standards of textuality of discourse, as manifested in the Husseini discourse (a speech genre and a certain type of religious, social and political preaching).

The core objective of the study is to find out the discourse markers, usseini sermons have been randomly selected to be the representative data for the analysis.

The model adopted is of Jeffries & Mclntyre 2010 regarding discourse world.

The analysis and findings of the data have revealed certain conclusions.

One is that situationality is achieved through linguistic aspects represented by the use of summative expressions, supportive moves, commentary, and nonlinguistic aspects are the poetic language including the use of metaphoric and rhetorical expressions and the use of the religious and social studies.

Another conclusion is that the Husseini sermons merits attention as a speech genre with its peculiar structure, audience, practices, linguistics realizations, pragmatic and discourse strategies.
