Abstract
This article aims to disclosure the contribution of al-Jahidh to linguistic development in particular to the study of meaning. Al-Jahidh linguistic concept is structure of sentences which integrates logic and rhetoric by harmonizing words, language style and language meaning. The method used by al-Jahidh in constructing sentences relies on rational reasoning. This is a study of sociolinguistic and pragmatics with the result findings are: first, the intellectuality of al-Jahidh in linguistic field is visible from results of integration between logic and rhetoric, where for him, there are several conditions must be considered in understanding texts; 1. rhetoric and fluency in speaking, 2. rhetoric and cleverness in choosing words; 3. rhetoric and disclosure of meaning; 4. rhetoric and the science of balaghah; and 5. rhetoric and power. Aside from those, al-Jahidh's thoughts about the language style and meaning also existed. For al-Jahidh, words that have similar meanings or are synonyms do not always refer to the same meaning, but actually indicate different meanings. Second, al-Jahidh himself initiated the basis of Balaghah with the key concepts of al-Ma'ani, al-Bayan, and al-Badi'. Another influence from al-Jahidh was the classification of al- Bayan study into lexical meaning (lafad), sign meaning (isyaroh), written meaning (al-khaat), convention meaning (al-aqd), and pragmatics or circumstances (al-haal) which then called as the meaning of nusbah (al-nusbah).
