al-Kināyah is a form of metaphorical language. Through it, the speaker can effectively communicate his or her meaning to ensure the listener's understanding of the intended idea. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) used this approach to convey an idea. This study aims to examine the contexts in which al-Kināyah was used by the Prophet (PBUH) with the application of Hymes’s SPEAKING model. The data come from four selected hadiths from the books of the Arabic amthāl collection. Findings demonstrate that the Prophet (PBUH) employed al-Kināyah in various contexts for a variety of reasons. He was found to use it in the context of giving orders to a cameleer, imparting religious teachings to his companions, and making bequests in the presence of community elders. These special expressions help to express a broader meaning and prevent the speaker from making use of otherwise unpleasant expressions. The implications of this study underscore the importance of mastering the elements of implicit language in understanding the true meaning of his words for those who venture into the study of the hadiths of the Prophet (PBUH).
