Arabic Through the Qur'an

by Alan Jones

Arabic Through the Qur'an Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Whether used as a means of self-instruction or as part of higher learning coursework, this language primer is ideally suited for those wishing to learn classical Arabic and for Muslims who wish to learn Arabic exclusively for use in their religious and spiritual practice. Designed to enhance the understanding of the Qur'an and its vocabulary that has infiltrated the whole of Arabic and Islamic literature, this workbook provides 40 easy-to-follow lessons for learning Qur'anic rather than modern Arabic. Beginning with a section on the Arabic alphabet, the text moves on to individual lessons that address one or more grammatical topics, ranging from the basics of nouns, adjectives, and prepositions to the more complex concepts of the imperative, the passive, and conditional sentence, introducing new vocabulary in the process. Accompanying translation exercises, a glossary of technical terms, and an index supplement the main text.

About the Author

Alan Jones is the author of Early Arabic Poetry, The Jaysh Al-Tawshih of Lisan Al-Din Ibn Al-Khatib, and Romance in Kharjas in Andalusian Arabic Muwassah Poetry. He is a professor emeritus of classical Arabic at Oxford University.
