Abstract

Consistency is the sum of grammatical premises that make the text a sequence of sentences and paragraphs. It surrounds the text, giving it a sense of sequence and texture. The various linguistic phenomena within it aim to enhance the text, fitting it together and ensuring its continuity. Consistency, through its formal and semantic means, allows us to approach the text from a contemporary linguistic perspective.Based on this perspective, this study observes several coherence tools in the poem "Saly Al-Ramah Al-Awali" by poet Safi Al-Din Al-Hilli (1278-1349) to uncover the mechanisms of textual references, deletion, connection, consistency, repetition, and conjunction. The study concludes that this text has a coherent framework and its parts are connected in a continuous and sequential manner. The mechanisms of textual harmony are clearly visible in the poem.The text contains an abundance of textual coherence tools, accounting for 51% of all coherence mechanisms. This percentage is attributed to the interrelationship between the structures of the poem "Sali Al-Ramah Al-Awali," where grammatical linkage and semantic consistency overlap and interweave. The textual structure reveals a diversity of textual consistency mechanisms, with referral accounting for 30% and repetition also accounting for 30%.
