hard one loses, one wil be in a state. Between loss and gain there are many a step.
However humans work hard to be a great success and a read winner.The life of the world constitutes a huge race-track where people try hard to head towards
the hereafter. Therefore, we find people who succed and gain the Garden, and people whose
habitation is the fire, The Glorious Qur’an has shown us in many a surah the way to success
when Allah mentions ‘great success’ and ‘evident triumph’, as well as the happy end of the
winners’.
This research is an attempt to trace the way to victory and success as shown in the Qur’an.
This will be done via studying the semiotic units denoting triump in its three epithets, and the
semiotic units denoting winners, desert, and achievement our aum is that we wish we could be
among the winners in this life of the world’s list of contestants.
