Grammar Grammatical and Weight Wise Concordance of Qur'an Quran Idea & Some Work on Grammatical and Weight Wise Concordance of the Qur'an (Version 1.1) I am thankful to ALLAH for honoring me with this oppurtunity to serve Qur'an, no credit is mine at all. All credit goes only to ALLAH. Any mistake is due to me. Advantage: Grammatical concordance of the Qur'an. Many efforts are being made on vocabulary and root wise concordance of the Qur'an , but this idea focuses on grammatical and weight wise concordance of the Qur'an using similar weights of different roots. Like in vocabulary concordance different weights of the same root have some link to the root meaning, similarly in grammar concordance same weights usually have some similar effects on the meaning of the root. Column named Fa Ayn Laam is meant to put 3 letter roots of words e.g. for Raheem root is ra ha miim, column weight is to put weight of root e.g for Raheem weight is fa'eel, and G2 is meant to put noun forms for ease of grouping related words, like verbal forms have terms like I, II, III etc. Similarly these can have terms like N01.1, N01.2..., N02.1..., N03.1... etc. For columns, weight and root, additional columns containing text in Arabic in addition to transliteration can be added making total new columns as 5. For roots containing 2 letters suad laam is used and for 4 letters ba ra zay kha is used. Source: Lemmas sorted by : Group & Frequency from http://corpus.quran.com/lemmas.jsp as on 1-December-2010 . This document is being edited by Asim Iqbal 2nd http://asimiqbal2nd.110mb.com . ' stands for 1 ayn and '' stand for doubled ayn. The suggestion is to cover all the lemmas and weights. The "ta" at the end also increases intensity in some forms while in others it is just an indicator of feminine. I have tried to add t in G2 column and tried to mention t.f with real feminine only, keeping remaining ta cases open. Note : this work requires verification. Note: I have only worked on 3 new columns introduced by me i.e G2, weight and root, (root based on root data available in the lemmas data, but verification of roots containing weak letter to be done again at a later time). Remaining columns taken from lemmas directly and I have not yet edited or improved the remaining columns. To check any entry in detail, copy text of column lemmas, go to http://corpus.quran.com/morphologicalsearch.jsp and paste text in lemma and press search. Any suggestion, improvement or correction can be sent to my email address given on http://asimiqbal2nd.110mb.com . Invitation : http://corpus.quran.com is strongly invited to verify this data and add it to http://corpus.quran.com/lemmas.jsp , along with 2 new options, 1st to arrange them gramatically using G2 column to sort, 2nd to arrange them root wise using Fa Ayn Laam column to sort. For further improving, send your suggestions to me. ap is active participle, pp is passive participle,im is imperative and md is masdar (verbal noun) . vb.I.ap means active participle of verbal form I type. Similarly for others, as terms already exist for verbal forms and they should be kept. pl means plural and dl means dual and cl means collective noun, and in G2 dual is mentioned as p.dl. For roots with ayn and laam as same letter in simple cases, I have used laam's letter twice. If any one wants to do any other work on Grammatical and weight wise concordance on the Qur'an , feel free to discuss with me your project. For latest version keep visiting http://asimiqbal2nd.110mb.com . In pl of N foms e.g. N03.1zpl is written instead of N03.1pl so that it is sorted after N03.1t and N03.1y. Moreover in certain cases, only plural form is used in the Qur'an and singular is not used, so singular is checked using some grammar books, so due to this, sorting these pl at the end with zpl is better option. t.s is written where ta is only in singular and not in plural and t.p is written when ta is only in plural. z.G1 is written on basic grammar like prepositions, particles, conjunctions, pronouns etc. as sufficient material is available on these for these arranging via weights is not so important, check part of speech column, vocabulary concordance, grammar notes etc. for these. If you have any idea on how to sort these even better, feel free to give me suggestion. Usually a language comes first and then is analysed to derive grammar rules, so grammatical and weight wise concordance of the Qur'an is an important idea, by which existing grammar rules can be verified or improved, exceptions can be studied & there are many other benefits. Qur'an is a Miracle in Arabic so from its Miraculous language, you can get highest quality grammar. Context also has effects on the scope of the meaning e.g. The being whose quality is described, its context & placement in the Qur'an etc. This work is just a beginning, and scholars could take this idea and work to the next level by the help of ALLAH.

  • Bamana Texts in Arabic Characters: Some Leaves from Mali
    Tal Tamari Bamana Texts in Arabic Characters: Some Leaves from Mali Abstract: This study analyses five Bamana-language texts composed in the ear- lier twentieth century by Amadou Jomworo Bary, a Fulbe scholar from the Masina (Mali), that were hand copied in 1972 by the Fulbe scholar and researcher Al- mamy Maliki Yattara. The writing system, which uses modified Arabic characters to note phonemes specific to Bamana, is compared to other West African adapta- tions of Arabic script. The article also examines the doctrinal positions developed and world view implicit in the texts, which concern water rites in San (Mali), Is- lamic belief and practice, and healing. Attention is drawn as to how knowledge of local cultural contexts can contribute to a better understanding of these manu- scripts. 1 Introduction In 1994, I published a study of five short texts (totalling five and a half pages), written in Arabic characters in the Bamana language. These texts had been cop- ied by Almamy Maliki Yattara, a Muslim scholar then employed by the Institut des Sciences Humaines in Bamako, from originals held by a friend of his, Abou- bacar (commonly known as Bory) Bary, in 1972 in San (Mali). Research conducted in the intervening twenty years has confirmed the analysis of the writing system, and has led to few changes in the transliteration (Arabic to Latin characters), transcription (reconstitution of the Bamana discourse) and translations of these texts. On the other hand, personal fieldwork undertaken in the interval, as well as general progress in the understanding of West African writing practices, makes it possible to place these texts in much sharper historical and cultural per- spective.

  • Translation: Arthur John Arberry; Transliteration: German…
    International Journal of Arts Humanities and Social Sciences (IJAHSS) Volume 1 Issue 2 ǁ September 2016. www.ijahss.com Contrastive Suprasegmental Features on English and Arabic IPA Transcription of Surah Al Ya Sin Assist. Prof. Dr. Metin Yurtbaşı Bayburt University, Faculty of Education, ELT Department, Bayburt, Turkey ABSTRACT: The greatest difficulty in reading Arabic script for nonnatives has long been considered as the absence of short vowels, however there is more to be dealt with. While the correlation of 28 Arabic consonants pose no great difficulty in decyphering the script, the six vowel phonemes voiced only by three letters even with help of some relevant diacritical marks (ḥarakāt) do not satisfy the needs of nonnatives. As the bulk of Arabic publications is written without such marks, foreign readers are at a loss to read the written work intelligibly unless they are familiar with the grammar of the language. Especially practicing Muslims who are required to read the Islamic Scripture Qur’an even without a deep knowledge of its language are unable to produce acceptable pronunciation. In order to meet the needs of such nonnative believers and the learnerns of the Arabic language, many attempts have been made to transliterate (romanize) the texts replacing letters with their close equivalents in the Latin alphabet by some modifications. Although this method has helped somewhat in decoding the consonants, the issue of vowel representation has always been an unresolved issue. The IPA advocates suggested corresponding vowels from its files and that seems to have solved at least the segmental part of the problem. However knowing that the overall speech intelligibility lies more with prosody, i.e.

  • Meliha Teparić Islamic Calligraphy and Visions
    Meliha Teparić Islamic Calligraphy and Visions UDK: 7.033.3 Meliha Teparić, 231.74 International University of Sarajevo [email protected] The visionary aspect of Islamic calligraphic art has most directly affected its formation, as well as the aesthetics itself. This art was often attributed a mystical dimension, as it was strictly under the influence of spirituality, the Divine message and the in- tensity of that message, and later through Sufism, it was immersed in deep symbolism too. Respecting holy people was one of the most important characteristics of Sufism, which reflected directly onto the art, to which they were prone, especially the Mawlawi and Bektashi Sufi orders. Sufis or mystics, as they are known in the West, were committed to cultivating this tradition of transmitting knowledge, so that many of them practiced rituals in calligraphic art. Many authors stress a charac- teristic Sufi meditation of “invoking God’s names“ (dhikr) as one of the important factors for reaching aesthetics, i.e. ability to ‘see’ its inner beauty and finally realise it. It is a little surprising that many eminent calligraphic artists were themselves Sufi teachers-mystics or their followers, disciples, who had set artistic standards that became canonical. Thus, characteristic calligraphic works were created, with unusual compositions and visual content, which became specific to Sufi calligraphic art. In this paper my aim is to present the calligraphic compositions, which possess some enigmatic quality, symbolism. It is believed that letters have a magical character, through the characteristic forms of the letters themselves, their separate meaning and symbolism, as well as their numeric value.
