Abstract :

Cultural criticism is one of the modern critical approaches that gave the recipient the opportunity to identify the text, decipher its codes, and interrogate its new meanings. His moral discourse came to urge not to depend on the world and to beware of death. And his calls for goodness and the mobilization of Muslims had a great impact on the events of the modern history of Oman, especially during the rule of Imam Salem Al-Kharousi. The research relied on the light of cultural criticism, to show the implicit patterns in the preaching discourse of Al-Bahlani through the descriptive-analytical approach in four axes, namely: the educational system from the trials of the world. And we read in the imaginary pattern of death a warning pattern for the ego and the other. In the last two formats; The call to unity and the enticement to goodness also was the context expressing the virile pattern of the ego, which is expert in the causes of defeat among Muslims, and the formal pattern was revealed through the aesthetic images of analogy in the study.
