Arabic Grammar for Beginners 2

This is the second edition of the classical Arabic Grammar book for those who want to learn Arabic to read and understand the Qur'an. It assumes that you know how to read Arabic at a basic level, and two chapters are dedicated to revising the basics of the alphabet and some helpful additional concepts. This book does not teach Arabic from zero knowledge. A teacher is needed to read, write, and pronounce Arabic. There are thousands of examples, many in a table form, which you can memorize for vocabulary and practice by hiding the answer columns. This book has been updated in Arabic to correct errors in e-books due to the Kindle conversion for Arabic. Please get in touch with the author if you have an issue. The contact info is on the second page. A new version will be sent. Arabic Ilm-us-sarf, or word morphology, is the first step in learning classical Arabic. It is the science of word origins. The word Sarf has many meanings, but as applied to Arabic grammar, it is defined as changing a root word into different forms to create an intended meaning. As you will learn in this book, 99% of Arabic words start from a three-letter root word, which is then changed into different forms to create other meanings. These rotations of the root word are called تَصْريْفٌ tas-reef or inflections. Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam asked his Ummah to learn Arabic because it is the language of the Qur’an, his language, and the language of the people of Jannah. Also, from the words of Imam Shaafai, knowledge is what is useful, not what is memorized.
