Abstract EN
The present study investigates the metaphors of natural phenomena in the Holy Quran.
These metaphors fall into five major classifications: 1- metaphors of rain, 2- metaphors of mountain, 3- metaphors of wind, 4- metaphors of light, and darkness.
The analysis in this study is conducted within the framework of Charteris-Black’s theory of Critical Metaphor Analysis (CMA) (2005).
Based on this theory, the study assigns a conceptual metaphor for each classification of metaphors.
The study ends up with a key metaphor that relates all the conceptual metaphors resulted from the analysis of different classifications of these metaphors
