This study applies Roman Jakobson's communicative model to the letters of Imam Ali (AS), a foundational text in Arabic-Islamic prose. Jakobson's model comprises six components (addresser, addressee, message, context, code, contact) and six linguistic functions (expressive, conative, referential, phatic, metalingual, poetic). The study adopts an interdisciplinary methodology combining contextual reading with linguistic analysis to uncover the dominant functions, their relationship to rhetorical contexts, and their contribution to the aesthetic, emotional, pedagogical, and political dimensions of the letters. The results reveal that the six functions overlap and integrate rather than appearing in isolation, and that their distribution is closely tied to the addressee. When the Imam addresses a governor like Malik al-Ashtar, the conative and referential functions dominate. When he addresses a son like al-Hasan, the expressive and poetic functions prevail. When he addresses an opponent like Mu'awiya, the conative and phatic functions dominate. This distribution shapes the letters on four levels: aesthetic, emotional, pedagogical, and political. The study confirms the validity of Jakobson's model for analyzing Arabic prose texts of a religious nature and opens the door to future interdisciplinary studies.
