Dr. Abdullah Abbas Al-Nadwi Language: Arabic – English | Format: PDF | Pages: 897 | Size: 66 MB
An extremely useful dictionary of the
words in the Qur’an, compiled on the basis of their three-letter roots,
allowing one to infer the meanings of almost all the different Qur’anic
words by recognizing their root meaning. Examples of uses of the words
in the Qur’an are also presented.
The vocabulary of the Quran. Qamus alfaz
al-quran al Karim is a valuable asset for the scholars of the holy
Quran. It meets a long felt need and fills the lacuna in this field. It
is at once a dictionary of the words of the Quran and also a grammatical
guide to their roots. It treats the words in their various verbal
forms. Copious examples of the verses of the Quran are given. The aim of
the respected compiler is that the book should be of advantage to the
English speaking Muslims of the world who’s mother tongue is not Arabic.
The compiler has consulted the reputed commentaries on the Quran. We do
not find any other dictionary of comparable volume ad content. An
appendix lists the roots of the word’s to facilitate those who are not
aware of the Arabic etymological system of the words.
The Compiler Dr. Abdullah Abbas Al-Nadwi
is a graduate of the Nadwatul Ulema and an MA &PhD in Linguistic
Philosophy, He is advisor to the Rabitah al-Alam al-Islamiyyah, Makkah,
Member of the Liguistic Society Cambride and Professor at Umm al-Qura
University Makkah.
(Had We sent
this as a qur’an (in the language) other than arabic, they would have
said: ‘Why are not its verses explained in detail? What! (a Book) not in
arabic and (a Messenger an Arab?’ Say: ‘It is a Guide and a Healing to
those who believe; and for those who believe not, there is a deafness in
their ears, and it is blindness in their (eyes): They are (as it were)
being called from a place far distant!)[TM Qur’an Fussilat 41:44]
