This study analyzes the religious values in the poetry of Abdul Hamid Al-Khatib using Riffaterre’s semiotic approach. The analysis focuses on four key poems: "Promise and Threat" (الْوَعْدُ وَالْوَعِيدُ), "Heaven and Hell" (الْجَنَّةُ وَالنَّارُ), "The Prophets and Messengers" (الْأَنْبِيَاءُ وَالرُّسُلُ), and "The Names and Attributes of Allah" (الْأَسْمَاءُ وَالصِّفَاتُ). The study applies four stages of analysis: continuity of expression, heuristic and hermeneutic reading, hypogram analysis, and the exploration of the literary matrix. Findings reveal that these poems convey profound religious messages through powerful symbolism, intertextuality with sacred texts, and literary language that reinforces Islamic moral and spiritual teachings. Al-Khatib’s work effectively connects readers with divine values, ethical reflection, and religious consciousness.
