Introduction
Discourse analysis reveals the speaker's ideology through the study of language. In critical discourse analysis, Fairclough combined textual analysis with discourse analysis and sociocultural conditions. His theory has three stages: Description: focuses on linguistic features that are consistent with the speaker's ideology. Interpretation: focuses on interpreting the relationship between text and interaction with regard to intertextuality and the analyst's mental backgrounds. Explanation: focuses on explaining the relationship between discourse and society based on power. Discourse analysis aims to uncover the speaker's ideology through the study of language, regardless of non-cultural, social, and political issues. Fairclough proposed three stages in his critical discourse analysis: description, interpretation, and clarification, combining textual analysis with discourse analysis and social, political, and cultural contexts. Yahya Al-Samawi is a unique contemporary poet from Iraq. He has dedicated his poetry to serving Iraqi society. As for Yahya Al-Samawi's literary standing, it suffices to say that many critics and researchers have paid attention to his works, with studies of articles, letters, and dissertations being conducted on his works. He has published more than twenty collections of poetry. "The Epic Al-Tokotok " is Al-Samawi's poetry collection in which he explores Iraqi issues of poverty and governmental tyranny. The book includes more than eighty poetic and prose texts, all of which address the November 25 demonstrations, which called for a rejection of violence, a response to the people's demands, and an end to financial corruption. This is Al-Samawi's twenty-eighth collection. This humanitarian collection covers destruction, crises, economic problems, tyranny, injustice, the intransigence of rulers, and the displacement of Iraqis. . Among the questions we seek to answer in this research are:
1. What are the underlying ideologies in the collection "The Epic Al-Toktok" according to Fairclough's critical discourse analysis?
2. How does the ideology of the narriative discourse work with the prevailing ideology in society by supporting, changing, or reforming it?
3. What is the most prominent method in shaping the novel's main discourse according to Fairclough's critical discourse analysis?

Conclousion
The poet's experiences are a result of his worldview, knowledge, and beliefs. The homeland is one of the most important issues for poets of resistance, exile, and colonialism. Al-Samawi is considered a resistance poet and places the homeland at the center of his themes. At this level, the poet uses metaphor, antithesis, the vocative, the negative "la," and the imperative to create familiarity with the audience, with the aim of encouraging them to embrace a spirit of defiance and resistance against the tyrannical rulers in Iraq. Metaphor is a means of representing one aspect of experience through another. It encompasses literary metaphor and the conceptual system of the human mind. The metaphorical aspect of words is of particular importance in Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis. He describes the problems of Iraqi society in a realistic style. The poet's purpose in using the simile is to denounce and defame unjust rulers, because the rulers appear to be righteous, but in reality, they wear masks of injustice. Thus, he calls on the people of Iraq to wake up and be vigilant. He says that the masks of the false rulers have fallen, and their false promises are no longer a savior. These promises have been broken by the people of Iraq. There are many phrases and sentences in "The Epic of the Al-Toktok" that directly and indirectly use Islamic themes, verses from the Quran, and proverbs. Overall, it can be said that Al-Samawi is one of the writers whose works dealt significantly with Islamic themes. He uses Abraha as an intertextual figure in "The Epic Al-Toktok" more than any other character, in keeping with his ideology of searching for unjust rulers, whom he compares to Abraha in their injustice. The prevailing ideology in society conflicts as a result of this dialectical relationship between language or discourse and society, allowing people to live a luxurious life free from injustice and tyranny. As for the imposition of authority, we can say that all the meanings in this collection are authoritarian. The poet uses authoritarian meanings to change, reform, and develop society. Authority in the epic's discourse is not a repressive type, but rather a generative authority that causes the emergence of a new ideology in society. We see that the epic seeks to change the balance of power in society. Discourse, society, and the speaker play a fundamental role in the emergence of a new ideology in society.
