One of the signs of the miraculous nature of God's words is that each grammatical structure carries a distinct meaning that sets it apart from others. Imām ʿAbdul Qāhir Al-Jurjānīexplored these meanings when he theorized about methods of exclusivity (qasr), distinguishing between exclusivity using “Innamā”and exclusivity through negation and exception. This study aims to trace the meanings of these forms of exclusivity in the Quran and apply them to verses with similar wording. Using a comparative descriptive-analytical method, the research gathers information from classical sources and rhetorical studies, then analyzes six similar verses based on linguistic and rhetorical principles. Among the key findings, the study revealed that the stylistic diversity among the Qur’anic verses reflects the precision of Qur’anic expression in addressing the state and condition of the audience. At the same time, it highlights the rhetorical and semantic miracle of the Qur’an in conveying meanings in a manner that accords with the context and situation.
