This paper endeavors to pinpoint the pragmatic aspects of the language utilized in Divine-Prophetic discourse in Quranic texts. Precisely, this work sets itself the task of answering the following question: what are the most prevalent speech acts implemented in this kind of discourse? Accordingly, the study aims at identifying the most common speech acts employed in this discourse. It is hypothesized that the speech acts of statements, affirmations, commands, prohibitions, promises, and threats are widely employed in Divine-Prophetic discourse. This paper analyzes five Quranic texts that encompass Divine-Prophetic discourse taken from different suras to arrive at their pragmatic buildup. The findings of the analysis validate the above hypothesis.
