Abstract
 Every language style is made up of phrases and words that make that language have spirit and meaning. Language plays an essential role in communicating with others, but if music is given sufficient attention in addition to these words, a better result will be obtained and the desired meaning will be accurately and well conveyed. Therefore, music is very important in language and poets and writers can use it to increase the literary value of their words. The Holy Quran is the most sublime text in which the words convey the desired meanings in the best way. In the Holy Quran, the music of words and phrases has been chosen in the best possible way, and the examination of different surahs shows well how the music of words and phrases in the verses has helped convey their meaning and concept. This research has been written with a descriptive analytical method and using library resources to examine the Taqvir surah in terms of its musical layer and to reveal the role of musical elements in expressing the meanings of this surah well.  Finally, it was concluded that the music governing the different parts of this surah fits well with the intended meanings and concepts; Whether the music is derived from the repetition of letters and words, whether it is internal music, as well as the music in the upper letters, which fluctuated from short syllables to long syllables, and in categories such as expression after ambiguity, warning and informing, and other concepts well showed itself.
