Abstract
The semantic field of "guidance-misguidance" is one of the important semantic fields in the semantic system of the Qur'an and Satan is one of the key concepts in this semantic field. The present study tries to provide a comprehensive explanation of the concept of " satan's astray" by using the method of constructionist semantics, based on linguistic context, based on coexistence and substitution relations. The analysis of 30 verses in which this concept is used, showed that the semantic field of "Muzell" includes concepts such as "Pharaoh", "Samaritan", a group of "people of the book" and "criminals" centered on Satan. Considering the coexistence of satan's astray and "Sabil" with the highest frequency of repetition, it is clear that this concept is related to the path and means deviating from an easy and natural path with a spiritual destination and towards the truth. The concept of "Sadd" is a substitute for "Ezlal of Satans" in the Qur'an, with the difference that, unlike "Sadd", there is no element of creating obstacles in the errors of the component, and "Sadd" has never been attributed to God; Therefore, the concept of "Ezlal" is more general. The semantic field of "satan's astray" includes concepts such as adornment, promise, reprimand, reprimand, invitation, temptation, and order, which are sub-words to the concept of "Ezlal of Satans", and in other words, it is a type of it.
