Abstract
The research investigates the statement of the linking function performed by the reference to pronouns as one of the most important tools of grammatical cohesion for textual texts, who confirmed that pronouns are among the most prominent linguistic units that undertake the task of linking parts of the text, as they refer to previous or subsequent references mentioned in the text or located outside it . We have traced the reference points with the pronouns in the (Proverbs Complex) to Al-Maidani, as it is a heritage blog that was concerned with collecting the texts of Arabic proverbs; To show the role played by this type of reference in achieving textual coherence between the two ends of the reference, the referrer and the referent in the texts of proverbs, trying to prove a number of things, including: Confirming the authenticity of the heritage Arabic text by revealing the value of the referential links that led to its cohesion at the formal levels and The semantic, and the confirmation of the textual unity of the proverbs as well as their ability to textual analysis, and the statement of the value of the linguistic and diacritical contexts represented by the situation or occasion that necessitated the saying of the proverb, and the impact of this in revealing the relationship between the two referral parties. Which will be shown by the following sections: The first topic: referral with the first person pronouns, the second topic: referral with the second person pronouns, the third topic: referral with the third person pronouns.
