Abstract
The systematic functional grammar of Michael Halliday, an English linguist, is one of the most important pillars of functional linguistics which emphasizes the importance of function and meaning and examines texts by relying on three ideational, interpersonal and textual Meta functions. In this research,the sermon of Hazrat Zeinab(PBUH)has been analyzed according to Halliday's theory in the field of meta function of thought in order to recieve and determine the linguistic process of the sermon . The method of this research was library method and subject analysis. First, the theoretical concepts of the research were re-read, then we examined the verbs and sentences and classified them based on this theory and determined the frequency of each. The results of the research show that the material process has the highest frequency because Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) as the ambassador of Karbala and the messenger of this movement and she tries to enlighten the people and reveal the facts that occurred in Karbala and the material process has the greatest capacity for this important issue.
The material process has the greatest capacity to communicate this important point.In this mental process,the most important goal of the orator is to draw the audience's attention to her intellectual and ideological error.Direct addressing and using the motivational power of commanding and forbidding actions has been aimed at influencing the audience's thought
Keywords: Functional Linguistics، Halliday، Sermon of Hazrat Zeinab (PBUH)، ideational meta-function.
