The objective of this paper is to discuss the semantic and inimitability (ic jāz) elements in various aspects from al-Muwazanah - which is one of the the rhetorical features (al-muḥassināt al-badic iyyah from the lexical embellishment (al-muḥassināt allafẓiyyah). The researcher has based this Qur’ānic study on inductive and analytical approaches by analyzing al- Muwazanah in theQur’ānin part(juz’)of Tabāraka .Consequently, the research successfully shows that the lexical and semantic embellishments employed in the Qur’ān have contributed to the semantics and meaning of Qur’ānic verses in addition to its role in exploring the essence of inimitability and rhetoric of Qur’ān in general and part (juz’) of Tabāraka in particular. The research then concludes that the lexical and semantic embellishments such as al-Muwazanah are not supplementary to the artistic form of the Qur’ān which could be taken for granted, but essentially charged as the rhetorical devices that embody the rhetorical and aesthetic of the Qur’ān as a whole.
