In all messages, the formal feature and how it penetrates III the souls of its <br /> addressees, is one of the most important ways. Restriction (qas'r) is one the <br /> most significant issues in semantics, about which it has been spoken in <br /> rhetorical methods of Qur'an. Qasr is limitation of the subject in a predicate <br /> or restriction of one thing to another in a particular way. This restriction can <br /> be done by different means. In Arabic, negation and exclusion are the main <br /> and strongest means for restriction. As Qur'an is the most important scripture <br /> for Muslims, to reach a deeper understanding of it, we have to consider all the <br /> rhetorical methods among which is restriction. In this article we have studied different views about various ways of <br /> restriction and its status in Qur'an and rhetorics. <strong> </strong>
