The study deals with philosophical aspects of language, according to Al-Farabi, and its relationship to the mind on the one hand and to the outside world on the other, which have drawn the attention of intellectuals throughout the history of science. This essay aims to examine, through a concentration on, the works of Alfrabi's book (Letters and his perspectives on the philosophical aspects of the nature of language. The paper covers the following issues: the constituent elements of language, mind, and thought and the semantic function of language. The study shows that "nature" and language are the same for humans and God. The components are written and spoken words, body language, and entities that convey meaning. The second question is whether linguistic components act as markers that elicit meaning and facilitate dialogue. When communicating meaning, the truth of speech differs from the "what" of meaning and the speaker in terms of the semantic roles of the elements of language (the person making the words and the speech). Because of this difference, language conveys a meaning that differs from the inner world of the speakers.
