Now if someone was to say the same thing as (Ibrahimu Rabbahu), that is, switch the fatha with the dhamma, that would mean “Ibrahim tested his Lord”, which would change the meaning altogether. An oft cited example for this is from the Quran: و اذابتلٰی ﺍﹺﺑﺮٰﻫﻴﻢﹶﺭﺑﹽﹹﻪﹸ ُ “And remember when the Lord of Ibrahim tested him” (Al-Baqarah: 124) Notice the fatha at the end of ﺍﹺﺑﺮٰﻫﻴﻢﹶ and the dhamma at the end of ﺭﺑﹽﹹﻪﹸ (Ibrahima Rabbuhu). Without the proper understanding of grammatical states you can end up saying The rat ate the cat when you actually want to say The cat ate the rat.

There are bound to be some mistakes in it. To the best of our ability, we have tried to remove all errors. The student is, therefore, urged to focus on the original term in Arabic. In some cases, they convey the exact meaning. It should also be noted that the English equivalents of Arabic grammar terms are mere approximations. The word still remains italicized so as to reflect its non-English origin. Thus, two dammahs is used instead of dammahtain. As for duals and plurals of Arabic words, we have not used the original Arabic duals and plurals rather, their plurals have been created the English way by adding an ‘s’ to the singular. Nevertheless, non-English words have been italicized. Rather, we have used approximate equivalents that are easier to read for the untrained. This is a beginner-to-intermediate level text therefore, we have not transliterated Arabic words exactly, keeping in mind that most people at this stage will not be comfortable with Arabic transliteration schemes. The organization has been changed in a way that we feel will make it easier for the student to understand how each section fits in the overall picture. We have completely revised some sections, as well as a number of definitions. During the course of our revision and editing, we consulted various grammar works including al-Nahw al-Wadih, Sharh ibn ‘Aqeel, Mu‘jam al - Qawa‘id al - ‘Arabiyyah, and A Simplified Arabic Grammar of Mawlana Hasan Dockrat. We decided to bring out a revised edition of this translation to address these issues. The newer version has made some improvements but issues remain, especially with regards to language and clarity of the English and Arabic texts. The first one had many errors and typing issues.
May Allah reward them.Īt least two versions of this translation are available online. They put in a lot of hardwork and made the English translation much more beneficial than the Urdu original. The original English translation of ‘Ilm al -Nahw was prepared by scholars from Madrasah Islamiyyah, Benoni, South Africa. Mawlana Char thawali’s primers for Nahw (Arabic grammar) and Sarf (Arabic Morphology) are standard textbooks in Western madrasahs. بسم االله الرحمن الرحيم نحمده و نصلي على رسوله الكريم Introduction to the Text & Translation This book is a revised edition of Tasheel al-Nahw, which in turn is a somewhat expanded translation of the Urdu language primer of Arabic grammar, ‘Ilm al -Nahw by Mawlana Mushtaq Ahmad Charthawali.
