Abstract
Phonetic stylistics, as one of the branches of stylistics, has an important position in linguistic research. Based on the descriptive and analytical method, the present study has studied the stylistic analysis of Surah Saffat from two phonetic and lexical levels in order to examine the most prominent phonetic and lexical aspects of the mentioned Surah, such as the nature of the letters and the frequency of its repetition, rhythm, puns, and syllables used in it. The findings indicate that phonetic elements such as repetition, rhythm, puns, etc. as examples of phonetic elements, play an important role in conveying concepts and meanings. From the lexical point of view, the use of sound masculine plural from with high frequency and past verbs in baab-e-taf'eel has been more effective in the Surah. And finally, both sounds and words are in line with the topic of the Surah, which is the expression of God's monotheism and the punishment of polytheists.
