Modern Arabic novels are a rich cultural heritage that is constantly being renewed and evolving. Their methods and forms vary, making them a mirror that reflects the social and cultural transformations in the Arab world. Intertextual relations in Arabic novels refer to the cultural, literary, historical, and social links and associations between the texts of the novel and the cultural and temporal context in which they were composed. In this context, the phenomenon of intertextuality has come to form one of the most prominent dimensions of the new Arabic novel.It is characterized by its intersection with religious, literary, and historical dimensions to create a unique literary text.

This study aims to shed light on the religious intertextuality and its contribution to highlighting the character in the novel “Aisha Goes Down to the Underworld” by Buthaina Al-Essa.
