Literature; or to speak and write in the modern Arabic to communicate with Arabs. This course is targeted
towards the former objective. Although people with the second objectives can also get benefit of this
program.
Due to its systematic nature, Arabic is one of the easiest languages of the world. It has well-defined rules and
a developed language structure. If you are familiar with these rules, you can learn this language in a few
weeks.
To understand the Quran and the Hadith, it is essential to learn the Arabic Language used in the Quran, the
Hadith and the Islamic literature. We will focus on its linguistics, philology and figurative speech.

Quranic Arabic Program

Module AR03

Introduction
The Program is organized as follows:

Level 0: The objective of this level is to enable you to read the Arabic script.

Level 1: The objective of this level is to enable you to understand the religious Arabic used in the routine
life.

Level 2: This level is designed to improve your language skills. You learn basic grammar and enhance
your vocabulary. After completing this level, you become able to understand 30-40% of the Islamic
literature in Arabic by using a dictionary.

Level 3: This level enhances your skills further. You read advanced concepts of grammar. Your
vocabulary becomes vast. After completing this level, you become able to understand 75-80% of the
Islamic literature in Arabic by using a dictionary.

Level 4: You complete your studies of Arabic Grammar at this level. At completion of this level, you
become able to read 100% of the Islamic literature in Arabic by using a dictionary.

Level 5: This is the last level of this program. You study the advanced concepts of 'Arabic Eloquence' at
this level. At the end of this level, you become able to appreciate the fine rhetorical concepts in the
Arabic language. It enables you to understand the Islamic literature in Arabic without consulting a
dictionary frequently.

Level 1 5 are also divided into two streams. 'A' series deal with the rules of Arabic Grammar & Eloquence.
Enough exercises are provided to you to learn the Grammar & Eloquence rules.
The objective of 'B' Series is to build your vocabulary. Passages from the Quran, the Hadith and selected
writings of Arab scholars are provided to you. You have to learn the words and styles and then translate the
passages into English. You need not to cram these words. The lessons and the exercises are designed in a
way that you will automatically learn the grammar rules, words and Arabic styles. At this level, we shall not
provide you the answers for the B Series.
This program is not designed to teach you day-to-day conversation in the Arabic language. This program is
also not designed to teach you how to write in Arabic language. But this program will help you in achieving
these two objectives. You need an Arabic speaking environment as well as a teacher to achieve these two
objectives. Nevertheless, the program is basically designed to teach you comprehension in the Arabic
language.

Lesson 1A: The Source & the Weight

Dear Reader!
In previous levels, you have studied nouns and
huroof. From here onwards, we are going to start
the discussion of 'Verb' and derived nouns.
Before proceeding, it essential to get an
introduction with the system of 'source &
weight'.

Build Your Personality


Be generous to others. Allah will be
generous to you.

Arabic is the most systematic language of the world. In Arabic, there is a complete system to
derive hundreds of words from a single word. If you know the meaning of that single word, you
will be able to know the meanings of several hundred words.
There are certain characters (mostly three) in such words which are common in all of them. They
are called the 'Source ('). The reason is that the entire set of words is actually derived from
these three letters. Before proceeding further, see the following set of words and identify their
source.

Rule of the Day


In Arabic, most of the words have three root
letters. Additional letters are added to them in
order to make hundreds of words.

Quranic Arabic Program

Face the Challenge!


Think about 20 Arabic words in your
vocabulary and identify their root
letters.

Module AR03

Lesson 1A: The Source & the Weight

The Result
Now compare the source identified by you with the following:

If you take any three characters from 28 Arabic alphabets, in most of the cases, they will be the source
for a set of words. Number of the derived words from a single source is often over 1000. If you know the
rules of deriving words from a source, just be knowing one source, your vocabulary increases by over
1000 words. This is the systematic nature of the Arabic language which has made it the easiest language
to learn. Most of Arabic dictionaries provide the meaning of the source only and the reader can derive
over 1000 words from that source.
From this lesson onwards, we will learn the rules to derive over 1000 words from each source. In above
table, you can observe that in first two set of words have the same three letters i.e. and . The
only difference is the sequence of these letters. If (
different source of words.

) are changed to () , it becomes an entirely

Arabic Grammarians have developed a system to grasp the rules of derivation. They consider the source
( ) as the base source. The letters of other sources are compared with the base source. The first
letter of each source is replaced with , second letter is replaced with and third letter is replaced with

. This system is 'The Scale' (). Grammarians call the first letter of any source as , second
letter as , and third letter as .

The Quran is the book whose thousands of commentaries have been written. The Quranic Exegetes
look at each word and sentence of the Quran from different angles e.g. grammar, eloquence,
vocabulary, text organization, legal directives, philosophical issues and link with Hadith.

Lesson 2A: The Verb, its Types and the Derived Nouns
Dear Reader!
In previous lesson, you have learnt the
mechanism of source and how the words are
derived. In this lesson, we are going to
discuss the verb and its different types.

Build Your Personality


Make the life easy for your spouse, children,
colleagues and others by forgiving their
mistakes. Allah will forgive your mistakes.

The verbs can be classified on four basis:


Number of source letters
Use of source letters
Time
Voice

Classification based on the Number of Source Letters


Based on the number of source letters, we can classify the Arabic verbs into three types.

: These are the verbs having three source letters. For example ( opened), ( knew),

( helped). Over 95% of Arabic verbs used in the Quran are from this type. We will focus
only on this type of verb.

: These are the verbs having four source letters. For example ( shook). These verbs are
used rarely in Quran.

These are the verbs having five source letters. They are rarely used in Arabic

Language.

Here we will discuss only the verbs.

Classification based on the Use of Source Letters


Based on the use of source letters, we can classify the Arabic verbs into two types.

: These are the verbs in which only the three source letters are used in their base word. For

example
( helped).
( opened), ( knew),

: These are the verbs in which some letters addition to the three source letters are also

used in their base word. For example ( He fought with other). Its
is ( he killed), but
another word is added to make the sense of an interactive battle or combat.

Both of them are commonly used in the Quran, so we will discuss both of them.

Lesson 2A: The Verb, its Types and the Derived Nouns

Classification based on the Time and Nature


In English, verbs are classified as past, present and future based on the time. In Arabic, they are
classified into two. Based on their nature, two further types are added:

: These are the verbs in Past Tense. For example ( opened), ( knew),
( helped).


: These are the verbs in Present or Future Tense. For example ( opens / will open),

( knows / will know),


( helps / will help). Their present or future tense is determined by
the context in which they are used.


: These are the verbs in which a request / instruction is made to do something. For example
( open), ( know),
( help) etc.


: These are the verbs in which a request / instruction is made to not do something. It is the
reverse of .For example

( dont open), ( dont know),


( dont help) etc.

Here we will discuss all of them because they are commonly used in the Quran.

Classification based on the Voice


Like English, we can classify the Arabic verbs into two types based on their voice.

: It is the verb in active voice. In this voice, the subject (the one who does that task) is

described. For example


( he helped). The subject may be a
( he opened), ( he knew),
noun or a pronoun.


: It is the verb in passive voice. In this voice, the subject is usually not described. For

example
( he was helped).
( it was opened), ( it was known),

Both of them are commonly used in the Quran, so we will discuss both of them.
You might have noted that a verb can belong to many categories. For example
belongs to four
categories

at the same time.

Rule of the Day


Passive voice is usually used when an expressing
person does not want to mention the name of the
subject due to some reason.

Lesson 2A: The Verb, its Types and the Derived Nouns

Derived Nouns
There are certain nouns related to each verb. They are derived from it. They are classified as:

It is the subject doing some verb. For example

( helper). The subject may be a noun or a pronoun.


knows),

(opener),

(the person who



( the opened item),
: It is the object on which the verb was done. For example
(the known item),
( the helped person).

: It is the place or time where the verb was performed. in passive voice. For example
(the place to cook i.e. kitchen),
where people drink water etc.).

(the place where someone was killed),

(the place

: It is the tool by which a verb was performed.. For example


( a tool to open i.e. key),


( a tool to make a hole i.e. drilling machine),

(a tool to enlighten i.e. lamp).

: The adjective. It describes the attribute of a person doing something. For example,

(a knowledgeable person),
( a helper).

: It describes the comparative and superlative degrees of an adjective. In Arabic, a single



word is used for both of them. For example

( the most knowledgeable person or relatively

more knowledgeable person),


( the best helper or relatively a better helper).

All of them are commonly used in the Quran, so we will discuss all of them in next lessons.

Do you know? Hadith of the Prophet is not described without its reference. Thats why you
are finding the reference after each Hadith. Bukhari & Muslim were the compilers of two books of Hadith
which contain the most authentic Ahadith. Other compilers include Nisai, Ibn Maja, Tirmidhi, Abu
Dawood, Ibn Habban, Hakim, Ahmed Ibn Hanbal etc. Dar Qutni was an expert in identifying the
weaknesses in the chain of narrators in order to check the authenticity of a Hadith. Authenticity of a
Hadith is determined on the basis of reliability of its narrators.

Lesson 3A: The Past Tense: Active Voice

Dear Reader!
In previous lesson, you have learnt the learnt the
types of verbs. In this lesson, we are going to
discuss the past tense for Arabic verbs.

Build Your Personality


Develop the love of Allah and His prophet
in yourself.

In Arabic, the verb is slightly changed by adding or removing a letter or a few letters to develop
the sense of a built-in subject pronoun. Sometimes a separate noun or pronoun is mentioned as the
'Subject' (the person who performs an act). If a separate noun or pronoun is not mentioned clearly
in a sentence, its pronoun is hidden in the verb itself. Form of verb changes with a change in
pronoun, as we will see in next pages.
Recall the lesson of Pronouns. We learnt that there are 14 pronouns. Each verb also has the same
14 forms to make the sense of all 14 pronouns.
The Past Tense is called

and stands for the 'Active Voice'.

Look at the table of past tense on the next page.

Rule of the Day


The second source letter ( ) may carry either a fathah, or a kasrah or a dhamma. It all

depends on how the native people speak.


will always be with a fathah, will always be
with a kasrah and

will always be with a dhamma. Same is the case with other words. It is

mentioned in the dictionary that the will carry which vowel.

Face the Challenge!


Prepare a list of 30 words of past tense from your own vocabulary. For each list, prepare the
complete tables as mentioned in the next pages.

Lesson 4A: The Past Tense: Passive Voice


Dear Reader!
In previous lesson, you have learnt the Past
Tense with active voice. In this lesson, you
will learn the passive voice. Like English,
the Arabic also has the passive voice. It is
normally used where the speaker does not
want to mention the subject.


Build Your Personality
Tolerate any opinion different to yours openly.
Always consider that your opinion might be
wrong and others opinion might be correct. So
be prepared to revise your views and opinions.

If you are already familiar with the active voice, it is very easy to construct the passive voice. Each
word in active voice will remain as it is. Just change the of that word. Place a dhamma over

and a kasrah under the . It will become the Passive Voice which is called

in Arabic. For example


( He wrote) becomes
( It was written).
the

Like English, in Arabic passive voice, the subject is not described. As a result of that, an objectpronoun automatically takes place of the built-in subject. Grammarians call this object the
'Assistant-Subject' or .
Look at the table of past tense at next page.

Rule of the Day


A sentence has three components: the verb, the subject (one who performs a task) and the object
(on whom the task was performed). First two are essential part of a sentence while the object is
not always essential. For example
( Zaid wrote a letter). Here
is the verb,

is the subject and is the object. In


( Zaid came),
is the verb, is the subject
and there is no object. In passive voice, a subject is not essential but an object is essential e.g.


( The letter was written). Here
is a verb while is the object. There is no
subject in this case.

Lesson 4B: The Law of Physical Purification


Do you know?
The Chapter of 'Physical Purity' is usually the first chapter in the books of Islamic Jurisprudence Before
proceeding, it is essential to know some background information about the Islamic Jurisprudence.


') means the body of knowledge developed by the
The term 'Islamic Jurisprudence (

Muslim Jurists by applying the injunctions of the Quran and the Sunnah on real life situations. The
Muslim Jurists (legal experts) have been applying the instructions of the Quran and the Sunnah on
practical situations. Their legal opinions are compiled in the form of the books of Islamic Jurisprudence.
Schools of Thought
Several Schools of Thought have been developed during last 14 centuries in the realm of Islamic
Jurisprudence. Six of them are the most famous and widely spread over the Muslim World. They are:


Hanafi: It is the oldest and widely spread school of thought. It was founded by Abu Hanifa Nauman
Ibn Thabit (d. 150H / 767CE) and his disciples. The Abbasid Caliphate adopted the Jurisprudence
developed by Abu Hanifa and his disciples as the law of the state. Subsequently, different Muslim
Kingdoms in Central Asia and India adopted it as the law of the state. Majority of the Muslims follow
the Hanafi School of Thought.

Maliki: It was founded by Malik Ibn Anas (d. 179H / 795CE) and his disciples. Muslim state of Spain
adopted the work of Malik as the law of the state. It is mostly popular in North African countries.

Shafii: It was founded by Muhammad Ibn Idress Shafii (d. 204H / 819CE) who was a student of
Malik (the founder of Maliki School of Thought) and Muhammad Ibn Hassan (one of the founders of
Hanafi School of Thought). It is mostly popular in Egypt and some other countries of the Middle East.

Hanbali: It was founded by Ahmed Ibn Hanbal (d. 241 / 855CE) who was a student of Shafii. It is
popular in Saudi Arabia and some other countries of the Middle East.

Zahiri: It was founded by Dawood Zahiri (d. 270H / 883CE). It is considered the most literal school of
thought. It is also popular in Saudi Arabia and some other countries of the Middle East.

Jaafari: It was founded by Jafar Ibn Muhammad (d. 148H / 765CE) who was one of the most
prominent personalities in the progeny of Prophet Muhammad . This school of thought is
mostly popular in Shia Muslims.

These schools of thought differ with each other in their approach. Some interpret the Quran and the
Sunnah in strict literal sense. Some consider and some do not consider the background information for any
instruction in order to generalize it over other situations. While deriving laws, some include additional
sources of law other than the Quran and the Sunnah.

Since the 'Islamic Jurisprudence' is a human work not a Divine work, therefore, mistakes and
disagreements may occur in it.

Lesson 4B: The Law of Physical Purification


The Sources of the Islamic Law
The basic sources of the Islamic Law are the Quran and the Sunnah.


The Quran is the book of God revealed to Prophet Muhammad . It is widely


published.
The Sunnah is the practice established by the Prophet Muhammad . The practice
includes the detailed procedure for performing religious rituals. Minute details about the Prophets
practice are available in Hadith.

Some additional sources are used to derive detailed laws which include the following:


Consensus of Muslim Jurists on an issue.

Legal Analogy is applying a well-established law on situations comparable to that mentioned in the
original law.

Customs & Traditions of a society are also used in developing detailed procedures.

Law of Torah is sometimes also used to understand the injunctions of the Quran and the Sunnah.

Significance of Hadith Analysis


As mentioned above, detailed information about the sayings and the practice of Prophet Muhammad
is available in Hadith. It is very important to check the authenticity of a Hadith. The task is
performed by the Hadith experts. There are certain experts which are referred many times in this course.


Bukhari & Muslim: They are Muhammad Ibn Ismael Bukhari (d. 256H / 866CE) and Muslim Ibn AlHajjaj (d. 261H / 874CE). Their opinions about the authenticity of a Hadith are considered very
important. The books of Bukhari & Muslim are considered the most authentic books in Hadith. If both
of them are described together, they are called | and their books are called | .

Tirmidhi, Nisai, Ibn Maja & Abu Dawood: They are Hadith experts of 3rd century Hijra / 9th century
BC. Their books contain mostly authentic Ahadith (plural of Hadith) but they also include some
unauthentic Ahadith. Their books are referred as .

Hakim, Ibn Habban, Ibn Khuzaimah: They are experts of 4th century Hijra / 10th century BC. They
have also tried to include only authentic Ahadith in their books although the quality of their work is not
considered as high as that of Bukhari & Muslim.

Ahmed Ibn Hanbal: He is the famous expert of Hadith & Jurisprudence. His book is considered a
detailed source of Ahadith although it includes both authentic and unauthentic Ahadith.

The collections of these scholars constitute around 95% of authentic Ahadith.

The Structure of the Legal Injunctions
The Legal Injunctions in Islamic Law are divided basically into two types:

: These are things 'to do' e.g. performing prayer, giving charity etc.
( )
: These are the things 'not to do' e.g. killing a person, committing adultery etc.
 ( )

are divided into two further subcategories.

 Obligatory Things 'To Do': They are called (

Judgment.

Preferred Things 'To Do': They are called (

person should perform but if he does not perform, he will have no responsibility in front of Allah on the
Day of Judgment.

are also divided into two further subcategories.




Obligatory Things 'Not to Do': They are called


or . These are the deeds which a person
should not perform at all. If he performs, he will be responsible in front of Allah on the Day of
Judgment.
Preferred Things 'Not to Do': They are called

perform but if he performs, he will have no responsibility in front of Allah on the Day of Judgment.

Note: In Hanafi School of Thought, these categories are divided into further sub-categories on the basis of
intensity of the instruction. Other schools usually do not divide it further.

The Quran took serious steps to eradicate slavery from the Islamic
society gradually. These verses describe some of these steps i.e.
marrying slave-men & women and giving freedom to a slave for a
payment in easy installments if he / she wants to buy freedom and then
helping them in financial terms. For more details, see my book:

Lesson 11A: The Derived Nouns

Dear Reader!
In previous lessons, you have learnt the
derived verbs. All verbs are derived from the
source letters by applying certain rules.

Build Your Personality


Suspicion may result in breaking your family.
Avoid it.

Most of the nouns are not derived from a source letter by applying certain rules, but there are some
nouns which are derived from the source letters like verbs. These nouns are classified under six
categories:
: The subject noun. It denotes the person who performs a verb. For example
(doer),

( observer), ( killer),
( helper), ( performer), ( a person
( worshipper),

who knows something) etc.


: The object noun. It denotes the person or the thing on which a verb is performed. For

example

(an object on which a task is performed), ( an entity that is worshipped),

( a person who was killed),
( an observed entity),
( a person who was helped),


( a task which was performed), ( a known item) etc.

: The name of a place or time in which a verb was performed. For example
( a
place or time of work), ( a place of worship), ( an observatory),
( a place where
( a place of prostrating), ( a place for cooking i.e. kitchen),
someone was killed),

( place of sunrise),

(place
of
sunset)
etc.


: The name of a tool to perform a verb. For example
( a tool to open i.e. a key),

( a tool to

( a tool to make light i.e. a lamp), ( a tool to draw line i.e. a ruler),
beat e.g. a racquet) etc. It is rarely used in the Quran, so we shall ignore it in these lessons.

The adjective. It denotes the permanent ability of a person to do something. The

difference between


is that the
is associated with a task on some

occasion but the


is a permanent ability. For example
( a person having ability to
( a person having ability to help), ( a
do),
(a person having ability to observe),

( a merciful person), ( a big person), etc.


knowledgeable person),


: The comparative or superlative degree of an adjective. For example
(more or
most capable to do),
(more or the most respected), ( bigger or biggest), ( more or
the most knowledgeable person),
(more or the most merciful person), ( shorter or the

shortest person), etc.
We will cover them in two lessons.

Before proceeding, recall the lesson in which we discussed that the nouns have three forms
i.e. subjective, possessive and objective case.

Important Notes
Usually, the Arabic names of different professions come a the weight of
(baker),
( loader)
( tailor), ( cloth merchant),

For example

Some of above weights e.g. are also used without emphasis. It is determined by the
context. Sometimes, both situations are equally applicable.
Usually a round is added to make these adjectives feminine.
Now you have learnt how to make hundreds of words with a combination of a few three letters. All of these
words derived from a set of source letters may not necessarily be used. But it increases the potential and
flexibility of Arabic language. For any new invention or development, words are already available in the
language. The Arabs just start using a word which is already available in their language but not in use. For
example, {

} ( something which travels a lot) is used to describe a car. {
}

(something moving a lot) is used to describe a mobile. {


to describe a computer.

Lesson 12A: Further Derived Nouns


In English, we have three degrees of adjective. In Arabic, they are two. For comparative and superlative
degree, the same word is used. It is called
.

Possessive

Meanings

The most doing male


The most doing two
males
The most doing all
males
The most doing
female
The most doing two

Now you can change the set of source letters to make

offend, to be cruel) to make their complete tables.
Important Notes

For comparison, two nouns are compared with each other. For example

(Zaid is

If there is no comparison, it will be the superlative degree. For example


( Zaid is the eldest
one.)
The adjectives describing colors and physical disabilities also come at the same weights. For



(red male),
( red female),
(dumb),

(blind), etc.
(lame),
example

(green male),

phase will be completed at Level 4. In the last two lessons of
Level 3, well discuss a few remaining concepts of .

Build Your Personality


While reading the Quran, dont
assume some views in your mind and
mold the Quranic directives into the
structure of those views. Mold your
views according to the Quran.

Weve studied at the beginning of this course that there are certain nouns who remain the same in their

condition. An cannot be added before them and their last letter cannot carry a tanveen. They are
called or . The rules of identifying such nouns are as follows:
It is the name (
) of a person, nation, city etc. fulfilling one of the following conditions:

(Isaac),
(Ishmael),

( Abraham),

(Jacob),
( Thamud), ( British), ( German),
( Egypt),
( Joseph),

(London), ( Paris),
(Lahore), ( Karachi), ( Dehli) etc.

etc.
An Arabic feminine name e.g.

An Arabic masculine name having a round at its end e.g.




etc.

An Arabic name having an at its end e.g.

etc.
An Arabic name having a at its end e.g.
etc.
An Arabic name coming at the structure of e.g.
( names of people), ( Saturn),

( Rainbow), ( A famous god of Arab mythology) etc.

An Arabic name made by two nouns without any relation e.g.


( A famous Arab wrestler),
( A city of Lebanon)

( A city of Yemen) etc.



It is an adjective ( )fulfilling one of the following conditions:
It is at the structure of
whose feminine adjective is at the structure of , e.g.
(Thirsty),
( Fresh, full of juice),
( Hungry), ( Satisfied, opposite of hungry),

(Drunk, intoxicated), etc. if the feminine is at some other structure, it will be .
It is at the structure of


but there is no round at the end of its feminine noun e.g.

etc. On the contrary,
(widowed man) is because its feminine is
(widowed
A name of a Non-Arabic language e.g.

woman).

Following few adjectives are

It is at the structure of



but there is no round at the end e.g.




etc. If there is a round at the end, it will be e.g.

( doctors) etc.
There is a / due to femininity or plurality e.g.
( angry),
(pregnant), ( bustard),

( sick), ( gifts) etc. If this is original and not due to femininity or plurality, the word will
be e.g.
etc.

There is a due to femininity or plurality e.g.


(desert),
( red), ( rich people),

( glory), ( straight people) etc. If this is from the original source letters and not due to
femininity or plurality, the word will be e.g.
etc.
The adjectives mentioning colors (both masculine & feminine) are i.e.




etc. The plural of these






colors is at the weight of for both masculine and feminine and it is i.e.

etc.
The adjective is a number at the structure of

( twice or thrice or

e.g.
four times) etc.

Exception to the Rules


In following circumstances, the rules of

are not followed. They are made in these cases:



If is added to an , it becomes e.g.
etc. Here are
but they are made by adding an to them.
etc. Here the
A , which is made a in a , becomes e.g.

word is but it is made because it is a to .


If a Non-Arabic name has only three letters and it is also not feminine, it is used as e.g.

etc but
will remain because they are feminine and Non-Arabic.

( In the home of another
An Arabic name is used as a common noun e.g.

Talhah) etc.

In poetry or poetic-prose, a

is made in order to fit the word in the structure of the poem

Some Special Conditions of Nouns


There are some special conditions of nouns which are used in Arabic. They are three:

: In order to give sense of 'small / little' in a noun, a is added inside the original noun. The letter

before carries a and the one before it carries a . It is called . For example, ( a slave),
( a little slave),
( a name), ( a little Talhah), ( a red-faced woman), ( a little red ( Indians),
( little Indians), ( a
( two men),
( too young men),
faced woman),

key),
( a small key), ( a king), ( a little king) etc. Usually it is used widely in the Arabic
names. The person who is given the name of something small, may not necessarily be a little person. He
may be given this name in love or due to his little stature or young age or due to any other reason.


: Sometimes,

. It has no
impact on meaning. The objective is to draw attention. For example, ( O my Lord!),
( O my

Lord!),
( O my friend),
( O Harith), ( O Harith),

( O

Mansoor),
( O Abbas) etc.
( O Mansoor),
( O Abbas),
while calling someone, last letter of a word is omitted. It is called

: In order to relate a person to a city, tribe, country etc., a


is added to the name of that city, tribe,
( Makkah), ( An inhabitant of Makkah),
country etc. It is called . For example,

(Madina),
( An inhabitant of Madinah),
( Quraish Tribe), ( a person belonging to Quraish),

( Ali),
( A person in Alis progeny),

( Tai Tribe), ( a person belonging to Tai Tribe),
(Ray, a city in Central Asia),
( A person belonging to Ray), ( Abu Hanifa), ( a follower of
Abu Hanifa) etc. Usually it is used widely in the Arabic names. In English, the letter i or ian is added
for that purpose.

'Khawarij' was a rebellious group who declared that Caliph Ali and Muawiyah are infidels. They were
extremists in their views. They used to declared everyone other than their own group as 'infidels'. They used to make
it lawful to kill others and take their wealth. Caliph Ali launched a military expedition against them which
destroyed their power. After that, they continued arranging small revolts against Caliph Muawiyah but failed. After
a long struggle, they were destroyed completely. Some of their moderate sects like Ibadhi are still present at Oman.
Throughout the Muslim History (including the modern age), similar rebellious groups emerged who declared
everyone except them as 'infidel' and revolted against the established governments.

One of the painful debates in the literature of Muslim History is the analysis of mistakes of Caliph Ali &
Muawiyah . We should seek refuge of Allah from that. Both of them were the great
companions of the Prophet . We should respect both of them and avoid such debate due to
three reasons: (1) The Prophet asked us not to blame his companions. (2) It is a useless debate which will
not provide any benefit in our salvation. (3) The information available in the books of history is extremely
distorted. In the second century, the extremists of different sects opponent to these two companions
created a huge junk of fictitious reports about both of them. Such reports are available in the history books
are extremely unauthentic. Therefore, we can never reach to a right conclusion.

1. The idea behind this is that if a farmer is getting water free of charge for his crops, he has to pay a Zakat of 10%
of agricultural produce. If he irrigates his land by paying money for it, he has to pay a Zakat of 5% of the produce.
Zakat can be paid in kind or in cash.
2. 'Qiyaas' is the process of legal reasoning. If a law is described for a particular situation due to a specific reason, it
will also be applicable to the other situations having the same reason. For example, if alcohol is forbidden due to its
intoxication, other items like heroin etc will also be forbidden due to the same reason.
3. At present time, some scholars have applied the process of 'Qiyaas' on industrial production. They consider it
similar to agricultural production. According to their view, it is essential for a industrialist to pay Zakat equal to 5%
of his factory production. Some scholars go further to apply the same to the turnover of service industry.

1. The Quran introduced the law of 'Mukatabat' which means that if a slave wants freedom, he can buy it directly
from his master. The master is bound to give him freedom at an agreed upon price. It will be the responsibility of the
state and rich people of the society to help the slave to get rid of slavery.

Do you know?
At the time of Islam, there were thousands of
slaves. Islam had a strong interest in freedom of
slaves. In addition to a large number of other
steps to freed the slaves, Islam made it a
permanent head in Zakat for manumission of
slaves. After that, Islam introduced a lot of
reforms to settle these ex-slaves in the society
in a respectable manner. You can see the details
in my book 'Abolition of Physical &
Intellectual Slavery in Islam'. It is available at:
