    Quranic Arabic Program Module AG023

    Introduction

    Dear Reader:

    Assalam o alaikum!

    Thanks for selecting the Quranic Arabic Program to learn the Arabic Language. We will take you through a series ofmodules starting from scratch and ending at the height of the classical literary Arabic. At the end of this program, God

    wills, you will be able to understand the literary Arabic. This program contains an easy approach to develop your

    linguistic skills to understand the Islamic literature. The series of books is name as Quranic Arabic Program because

    the Quran resides at the central position in this series.

    People learn Arabic due to two reasons: (1) To understand the Quran, the Hadith and the classic Arabic literature; or

    (2) to communicate with Arabs in the modern Arabic. This course is targeted to achieve the former objective, however,

    languages in the world, having well-defined rules, a highly sophisticated linguistic structure, and extremely developed

    styles of eloquence. If you are familiar with the rules of Arabic Grammar, you can learn this language in a few weeks.

    About 40-50 words are commonly used in Arabic, and we have tried to teach these words in the initial modules. Inorder to understand the Quran and the Hadith, it is essential to learn the vocabulary used in the Quran, the Hadith and

    the Islamic literature. We will focus the linguistics, philology and figurative speech of the Quran in this program.

    The program is organized in a way that you will gradually learn the Arabic language. It contains three levels: Basic;

    intermediate and advanced. Each level contains several modules which are organized into two series. One series

    consists of Arabic grammar and other language rules while the other is designed to build your vocabulary by reading

    the Arabic text. We have used the code of AG for the former and AT for the later. For instance module numbersare like AG00, AG01, AG02, AT01, AT02 etc. The entire structure of the program is depicted in the diagram and you

    should read the modules in sequence of the arrows mentioned here. Within a level, first read the modules of AG series

    and then read those of the AT series.

    Quranic Arabic Program Module AG025

    Introduction

    In the AG series, the rules of Arabic grammar and rhetoric are taught and their practice is done through applying them

    on the Arabic text. On the other hand, the AT series contains large number of passages from the Holy Quran, the

    Hadith and Islamic literature having extremely rich vocabulary. You will be asked to translate these passages by using

    the vocabulary provided on the same page. These tasks is designed in a way that such vocabulary as well as grammar

    rules will automatically become part of your memory without any additional effort. The modules are organized in the

    following way.

    The Basic Level

    It contains six modules out of which three are related to language rules and three include Arabic text. The detail is as

    follows:

    AG00: The objective of this module is to enable you to read the Arabic script. If you already read the Arabic script,

    you can skip this module and directly start from AG01 but a glance over AG00 will be helpful as you will be able to

    learn the differences in the script used in different parts of the world.

    AG01: This module contains the basics of Arabic grammar.

    AG02: It includes further details of the Arabic grammar including essentials ofIlm un Nahv.

    AT01: This module will enable you to understand the basic Arabic used in the routine life to perform basic religious

    rituals.

    AT02: The objective of this module is to enhance your vocabulary and by end of this module, you will be able to

    understand 15-20% of routine Arabic passages.

    AT03: You will further enhance your vocabulary in this module and will be able to understand 30-40% of Arabic

    passages.

    When you will complete the Basic Level, you will be able to understand daily prayers, Friday sermons and the

    Quranic content up to some extent, in sha Allah.

    The Intermediate Level

    This level includes seven modules, four related to grammar and rhetoric and three related to text. The detail is as

    follows:

    AG03: This module includes details of Ilm ul Balaghah i.e. the art of eloquence. It includes Ilm ul Maani, Ilm

    ul Bayan, and Ilm ul Badee.

    AG04: It contains advanced details of the art of eloquence and rhetoric. At the end of this module, you will be able

    to understand the fine rhetorical details of Arabic language. Although such details are usually taught aftercompleting the grammar but we have brought them earlier in order to maintain interest of the student because such

    discussions are much interesting as compared to grammar.

    AG05: You shall start studying the Ilm us Sarf i.e. the art of deriving hundreds of words from a single word, a

    unique feature of Arabic.

    AG06: Further details of Ilm us Sarf will be dicussed in this module and you will be able to derive hundreds of

    words from a single one after completing this module.

    AT04-06: These three modules include large number of Arabic passages of intermediate level and you will be able

    to understand 60-70% of the Arabic text after completing these modules.

    Quranic Arabic Program Module AG026

    Introduction

    Advanced Level

    At advanced level, you will study advanced concepts of grammar and focus more on building your vocabulary. It

    contains nine modules, two related to grammar and seven containing text.

    AG07: You will study advanced concepts ofIlm us Sarfin this module.

    AG08: This module includes the remaining advanced concepts of Ilm us Sarf and Ilm un Nahv. At the end of

    this module, you will have a complete knowledge of all important concepts of Arabic grammar and rhetoric and you

    will be able to analyze Arabic texts from grammatical perspective.

    AT07-AT13: You will read advanced Arabic passages in these modules and at the end of the module AT13, you

    will be able to read Arabic books easily. However, you may need to consult a dictionary occasionally.

    At the end of this program, you would have learnt the important concepts of different disciplines of Arabic linguistics

    e.g. Ilm us Sarf, Nahv, Al-Maani, Al-Bayan, Al-Badeeetc. You will be able to read Arabic books written during all

    ages of Islamic history. An exam will be taken at the end of each level to give you feedback about your capabilities.

    In order to set the right expectations, it is essential to tell you that this program is not designed to teach you spoken

    Arabic for day-to-day conversation. You will neither be able to speak Arabic nor be able to write in it as our focus is

    only comprehension. A religious scholar must be able to understand the Quran, the Hadith and the Islamic literature.

    Speaking or writing Arabic is not a key requirement for a religious scholar but an additional capability. In order to

    build communication skills, you need an Arabic speaking environment.

    We have tried our best to minimize typing errors in these modules, however, if you find any, do inform us. If you have

    any question about this program, please feel free to send an email to the authors and also share your valuable feedback.

    May Allah help you in learning Arabic to understand the Quran and the Hadith.

    Lesson 1: Proper and Common Nouns

    Dear Reader!

    Like English, the Arabic also has proper and

    common nouns. Proper Noun )

    ( is

    the name of any specific person, thing or place

    whereas Common Noun )( is the

    name of any general person, thing or name.

    Build Your Personality

    Make your all deals fair. Do not be involved

    in malpractices, cheating others or any other

    treatment which we do not like for us.

    For example, man, book, city are common nouns but 'John', 'Introduction to Arabic Grammar',

    'London' are proper nouns. Learn the following rules regarding the Proper and Common Nouns in

    Arabic language.

    Names of specific persons or places are Proper Nouns. For example

    etc.

    All pronouns )( , pointing nouns )( , and linking pronouns (

    ) are Proper Nouns. For example etc.

    General names of things, person, or places are Common Nouns. In Arabic, all common nouns

    end with a tanveen (double dhammah fathah or kasrah ) at their last letter. Forexample . It means that we are talking about any man, any book, anycity or any month.

    Adjectives (the nouns which indicate an attribute of some person or something) are alsoCommon Nouns. For example

    etc.

    In English, a common noun can be made a proper noun by adding a word 'the' before it.

    Similarly, in Arabic, a common noun is converted into a proper noun by adding before it.

    For example . It means that we are talking about some specificman, specific book, specific city and specific month.

    When is added to a common noun, its tanveen becomes a single dhammah, fathah or kasrah.

    Rule of the DayIn Arabic, there are two type of verbs due to time. One is (Past Tense) and the other

    is (Present and Future Tense). The same verb is used for both Present and FutureTense. You have to specify it based on the context.

    Lesson 2: Arabic Phrases

    Dear Reader!

    In previous lessons, we were learning the different types

    of words. From here, we shall start our discussion aboutcombination of words.

    Build Your Personality

    The Quran asks us to fulfill our

    contracts and obligations.

    Sometimes, words combine to make a phrase. The phrase is an incomplete sentence which does not give

    full meaning. For example 'a big house', 'the book of John' etc. Different phrases are combined to make

    full sentences. In Arabic, phrases have different types which are as follows:

    : This phrase describes a noun along with its some attribute. To describe an attribute, an

    adjective is added after the noun. In English, usually the adjective is added before the noun e.g. big

    house, good boy, nice book etc. In Arabic, the adjective )( is used after noun. For example (a big house), (a good boy), (a nice book). The noun whose adjective isdescribes is called

    . A

    is also called

    or

    .

    : This phrase describes the relationship of a noun with another noun. For example,

    (Allahs book),

    (demand for knowledge),

    (Obedience of Prophet). In

    Arabic, the belonged noun is brought before the noun to whom the other item belongs. The belonging

    noun is always in its possessive case )( .

    : This phrase includes a noun and a pointing noun. For example (This house),

    (That book), (This group of people) The noun of pointing is called whereas the noun being pointed out is called

    . The pointed out noun will have an

    before it.

    If the is plural and it belongs to non-intellectual creature, its will be . For

    example (These books). Many grammarians do not consider a separate type.They consider it either a or a .

    : This phrase includes a noun and a preposition. For example, (from the sky),

    (towards the Mosque), (like the stone). We shall discuss it in the lesson of

    prepositions.

    : This phrase describes two nouns combined by a conjunction. For example

    (an ignorant and a scholar),

    (the just or the offender),

    (good or ugly). We

    shall discuss it in the lesson of conjunctions.

    Do you know?

    In Arabic, pronouns are usually attached at the end of a

    word. Similarly, various single-letter words are attached

    at the beginning of a word. Therefore, one word is

    sometimes a combination of three words.

    Face the Challenge!

    Make a table. Write down different

    types of . Describe their

    components. Give three examples of

    each from the lessons of B Series.

    12/78

    Quranic Arabic Program Module AG0212

    Remember two rules about the :

    The basis rule of a

    that the noun and its adjective will always have the same case, the

    same gender, and the same number. If the noun is a proper noun, its adjective will also be a proper

    noun and vice versa. If one is singular, other will also be singular, if one in plural, other will also be

    plural. If one is masculine, other will also be masculine. If one is in subjective case, other will also be

    in subjective case ..

    There is one exception to this rule. Arabs divide the nouns into two major categories. The nouns

    denoting the name of an intellectual creature e.g. human beings, angels, giants etc and the nouns

    denoting the name of a non-intellectual creature e.g. books, animals, plants, furniture etc. If the

    is plural which is not made by rule and it belongs to non-intellectual creature, its

    will be

    . For example, the plural of

    is

    (small houses), the pluralof is (long pens), and the plural of is (green trees) etc.

    It has two nouns. The noun that is associated to other is called , whereas the noun to whom other noun is

    associated is called

    .Remember the following rules

    :

    The basis rule of is that there is neither an can arrive before nor a tanveen (doubt dhammah,

    fathah or kasrah) can arrive at its end.

    The

    will always be in the possessive case. See the examples of,

    (Allahs book),

    (demand for knowledge),

    (Obedience of Prophet). Both of these rules are

    applied in this case.

    Sometimes, a

    may become complex. For example

    (the Pilgrimage of the

    house of Allah), (door of house of son of king), (chapter of the bookof Allah) etc. In this case, the words coming in the middle of each phrase are for its successor

    but the for its predecessor. Neither an arrived before nor a tanveen arrived at their end.

    You have already learnt that in the words used for, \ are used. Similarly for plural, \are used. If such words are used as

    , their

    will be deleted. For example,

    (Muslims of the city) will be used instead of

    .

    If the is a pronoun, it will be used in its possessive case. You have already learnt the

    possessive case in previous lessons. For example (his book), (the book of both of them), (the book of all of those women), (your book)

    Consider the example of an English sentence. 'Zaid is a man.' In this sentence, there are two parts: One is theperson 'Zaid' about whom something is described. It is called the 'Subject' in English and in Arabic. It

    is also called . Other part of the sentence is the description about the subject. This is called the'Predicate' in English and in Arabic. It is also called .

    Consider the following points about the .

    : This is the sentence which starts with a noun. For example (Zaid is standing).

    : This is the sentence which starts with a verb. For example (Zaid stood up).

    In English, we use the helping verbs like is, am, are, was, were etc. to complete the sentence. In Arabic,

    these helping verbs are not used. Instead of that, the subject is used as a proper noun and its predicate is

    used as a common noun. As a result of that, the meaning of a helping verb is automatically assumed in the

    sentence. If the subject is a common noun, it is made a proper noun by adding an before it. For

    example

    (The house is big).

    It is important to note the difference between a and a . In the former, both the

    and are either proper or common nouns. It is not possible that one of them is a proper noun

    or other is a common noun. On the contrary, in , the will be a proper noun and its will

    be a common noun. For example (a big house) or (the big house) is an example of .On the other side (the house is big) is an example of .

    The predicate follows its subject in case, gender and number. If the subject is , its predicate will

    also be

    . If the subject is

    , its predicate will also be

    and so on. For example, (The two men are truthful), (Muslim women are pious).

    If the subject is of any non-intellectual noun, its predicate will be . For example

    (the trees are long).

    Rule of the Day:The Pointing Nouns of are used with plural nouns for non-intellectual things.

    For example, (these new books), (these cattle and tilth), (theseidols), (these rivers) etc.

    Lesson 5: Variations in the Sentences starting with a Noun

    Dear Reader!

    In previous lesson, we learnt the

    . In this

    lesson, we shall discuss further aspects of it.

    Build Your Personality

    Remember Allah every time. Consider

    that your Lord is watching you.

    A can be made negative by adding a word before it. For example, (Zaid is standing).If we add a before it, it will become, (Zaid is not standing). Instead of, you can also use

    the word

    . It adds some emphasis to the sentence. The sentence will become

    (Zaid is not

    standing). For the time being, use the word only with . An important point to note is that adding a negative word before the sentence results in a change in form

    of the

    . Originally, it was in

    . Now it has changed to

    .

    Another way to make a sentence negative is to add a

    or

    . Add a

    before the

    and convert it to

    . For example,

    (Zaid is not standing),

    (Zaid is not standing). It makes no

    difference in the meaning but as a result of that the case is changed.

    You can make a interrogative by adding a word before it. Alternatively, you can add the

    word. In both cases, there will be no impact on the form of words but the meaning will be changed to

    interrogative. For example, (Is Zaid standing?), (Is Zaid standing?). The letter iswritten with the next word and no space is kept between the two.

    In order to make the empathetic, usually a word or is added. It makes the sentence

    empathetic and also changes the form. The

    is changed to

    whereas the

    remains as it is in its. For example, (Definitely, Zaid is standing), (Definitely, Zaid is standing).

    In order to convert the

    in past tense, usually word

    is used. It has the same impact on the

    form as that of . The remains as it is whereas the is changed to. Use the word onlywith

    . For example

    (Zaid was standing).

    Sometimes, a may be a phrase instead of a single word. For example (The piousman is standing). Here the

    is 'The pious man or

    ' which is a

    . Another

    example is

    (The pious man and the pious woman both are standing).

    There a complex phrase used as the

    . Two

    are combined with each other to form a

    , that is the.

    If the noun after an

    is proper, it will be considered

    , otherwise, it will be considered the

    . For example, (This book), (This is a book)

    Lesson 9: Harf Prepositions

    Dear Reader!

    As we discussed in our first lesson that, like all

    other languages, Arabic has some words other

    than nouns and verbs. They does not make any

    sense without other words. They act as a bridge

    between the nouns and the verbs. Fortunately,

    their number is very limited. They are called

    (plural).

    Build Your Personality

    Be realistic. Do not see only the negative

    things in your enemies but also see their

    positive aspects. Do not see only the

    positive things in yourself but also see you

    negative aspects.

    You are now already familiar with most of these . We will describe them in this lesson.

    In English, there are three types of, i.e. prepositions, conjunctions and exclamatory words.

    Arabic language has the similar kinds of words. We will explain them one by one in the following

    tables.

    Prepositions

    Prepositions are used to describe the position of a noun with respect to a verb. In each language,

    prepositions are used in a different way. Due to this reason, during translation, the meaning of a

    preposition is not exactly translated into its most used meaning. It requires certain adjustments

    during translations. For example, Arabic preposition is translated sometimes as 'with',

    sometimes as 'on' and sometimes as 'from'.

    In Arabic, the prepositions are called . They are always used before a noun. That noun is

    always written in its possessive case )

    ( . The combination of a preposition with a noun is called

    , the preposition itself is called and the noun is called.In Arabic, there

    are many prepositions. Out of these prepositions, following are commonly used in the Quran and

    Islamic literature.

    Do you know?

    Like English, in Arabic, prepositions are used with specific

    nouns and verbs. Rules for use of preposition are different in

    different languages. In one language, one preposition is used

    while in the other one, some other preposition (not its equivalent)

    is used. For example, in English 'By God' is described in Arabic

    as .

    Towards,

    till

    It is commonly used to describe the meanings of towards or till. It describes

    the ending place or ending time of something.

    About, dueto

    It is a synonym of English preposition about. It is also used to describe the

    reason for something.

    non-physical terms.

    InIt is mostly used as a synonym to the English preposition in in physical or

    non physical terms.

    relationship or the purpose.

    Like, asIt is used to describe the example of something.

    I swearWhen

    is used as a preposition, it means 'I swear'. In Classical Arabic, by

    swearing something means that 'I put that thing as an evidence'.

    When it is used as a conjunction, it means and. In that case, the noun after it

    is not in possessive case )( .

    .TillIt is used to describe the meanings of till. It describes the ending time ofsomething

    Commonly-Used PrepositionsPrepositions have several meanings. Their meaning is determined by their context. Prepositions are used

    differently in different languages. While translating, we have to revise the preposition according to its use in

    the target language. For example,

    stands for with. In the sentence,

    (I bought this

    bookwithtwo dinars), we will replace the word withwith for. So the translation will be 'I bought this

    bookfor two dinars'. Similar is the case with other prepositions.
