The meaning of (as if) in the simile in the Holy Quran
(Simile image) in Holy Qur’an is: what a simile generates when it comes in suggestive artistic ways that form an image with dimensions and an effective statement. It is based on two pillars: pronunciation and meaning, or form and content when united through strengthening and clarifying relationships. There is no doubt that (similey image) in Holy Qur’an was suggestive and expressive that expressed meaning perfectly. Simile tool (as if) came to perform its function through its combination of (kaf) and (an), so simile (with kaf) came together with emphasis with (if), suggesting a strong cohesion between similar and the one being suspected. Therefore, when resemblance becomes strong, tool (as if) is used. Without anything else, just as Queen of Sheba said (as if he is him), and if she had said: (he is like this) it would not have been (the simile) as stated in revelation.
