Introduction
Arabic Morphology (
P
P P
PB0)
is a branch of Arabic
Grammar dealing with word-forms and patterns. It is
highly essential for the incumbent student of Arabic to
learn this science in order to be proficient in the language.
Acquiring an understanding of word patterns is of prime
importance in learning the language.
This is a comprehensive book dealing with all the
important aspects of the subject. If a student has to study
this book thoroughly, he would develop a very good
foundation in this science and it would absolve him of the
need to study any further books on the subject.
The Arabic names of morphologic terms have been
adopted instead of the Urdu forms commonly found in the
text books of Islamic seminaries. Thus I have used the
FBQ G0) instead of ( PFB GP0). Similarly, instead
of writing (RP
P), the correct Arabic form of ( P )
has been used while the term (P
P) is used instead of
(P
P) which is incorrect. This will enable the student to
term (
learn the correct Arabic terms from the initial stages of his
learning.
Included also is a collection of rules of word-changes
which affect many Arabic verbs and nouns. The rules have
been clearly explained with examples and a step by step

method as to how a word is changed from its original form
to its present one.
It is hoped that this book will be beneficial for the students
of Arabic Grammar and Morphology and simplify the path
to understanding the intricacies of the language. Āmīn.
For a detailed discussion on the name of this subject,
whether it is called Morphology or Etymology, refer to
Appendix A at the end of this book.
Some Useful Terms
Conjugation: A paradigm, class, or table of verb forms in
such inflected languages as Latin and French, where
elements are distinguished from each other by patterns of
inflection relating to tense, person, number.1
Declension: A term used to describe the case system of
nouns and other words.2
Inflection: The variation or change of form that words
undergo to mark distinctions of case, gender, number,
tense, person, mood, voice, comparison.3
Linguistics and Philology: The study of language.
Paradigm: pronounced (pa-ra-dime), in grammar, a set of
all the (especially inflected) forms of a word (write, writes,
wrote, writing, written), especially when used as a model
for all other words of the same type.4

The Second Category of Verbs
With regard to the root letters (
B". c) of a verb, they
are of two types:
Term
9:9
0 Meaning
3 root letters or
triliteral
4 root letters or
quadriliteral
Example
W W #W
W H^[ W
Each of these two types is further divided into two categories:
(1) (78) – the () consists of root letters only, without
any extra letters.
(2) (;<
=>?) - the () has root letters plus extra letters.
This results in the following four categories:
Term
78 9:9
;< =>? 9:9
78 0 ;< =>? 0 Meaning
3 root letters only
Example
W W #W
3 root letters plus extra

Types of Nouns
(1) There are three types of nouns - (,-):
[a] = , [b] g*+ and [c] =$ .
(2) The (=P – verbal noun) is a word that indicates the
occurrence of an action and is free of tense e.g. (X P[h^) –
to assist.
(3) The (g*P+) is a word derived from a verb e.g. (` PU"W#) –
helper is derived from (W W #W).
(4) The (=P
P$) is neither a (=P
P) nor a (g*P+) e.g.
(/
a $X W ) – man.
(5) The (=PP) and the (g*PP+) also fall under the
categories of (9:9), (0P ), (7P8) and (;P<
=P>?) like
the (/P
P<). The categories mentioned under the verb like
(]i") etc. also apply to an (2).
(6) The noun (=P
P$) with regard to its letters can either
have three root letters (triliteral), four root letters
(quadriliteral) or five root letters (quinquiliteral). It is
therefore of six types:
[1] (78
9:9) e.g. (/a $X W ) – a man
[2] (;< =>? 9:9) e.g. (` WF
U ) – a donkey
Page 18 - http://www.al-inaam.com/
Madrassah Inaamiyyah Camperdown
From the Treasures of Arabic Morphology
[3] (78
0 ) e.g. (6
` W )b 0W ) – scorpion
[4] (;< =>? 0 ) e.g. (\
` ^j[ KU) - paper
a $W [ 1^ 2W ) - quince
[5] (78 2k) e.g. (/
[6] (;< =>? 2k) e.g. (N
` [ !XQ^ [0W ) – a
spider
(7) The scholars of morphology generally deal with the
(/P<) because most of the changes (N1>PA) occur in a
(/P<) while few changes occur in an (P2) and none occur
in a (
).
Page 19 - http://www.al-inaam.com/
Madrassah Inaamiyyah Camperdown

The Scales of Verbs
The Arabic verb is constructed from a root which usually
consists of three letters called consonants or radicals.
These consonants form a kind of skeleton which
constitutes the verb-stem to which prefixes and suffixes
may be added.
Arabic verbs are mostly triliteral, that is, they are
constructed of three root letters. The simplest form of the
verb is the third person masculine singular of the perfect
tense (P
/P1 P dPIl mP =P). In most
dictionaries, all the words derived from a triliteral root are
entered under the third person masculine singular form of
the verb.
In Arabic, there are two main tenses, the perfect or past
tense (P
P), denoting actions completed at the time to
which reference is made; and the imperfect (P
P), for
incompleted actions, referring to the present or future
tenses. The present and future tenses are thus expressed by
the imperfect form (P). The imperative (P.) may
be considered a modification of the imperfect.
To

patterns
or
type-forms
of
verbs,
the
grammarians use the three letters of the verb (/
^ PW <^), where
the (
) represents the first radical of the verb, the ()
represents the second radical of the verb and the ()
represents the third radical of the verb. This is the scale

determined. Accordingly, the word (d

of the perfect tense
All three diacritical points or vowels
(NP) can be used on the (
PFBQ GP0) as is apparent
from the above-mentioned six categories (6 ().
(2) The Arab Grammarians usually begin the Perfect (
/P1
P) and Imperfect (P /P1) conjugations with the
third person (dP
PPIl), followed by the second person
(dj|) and finally the first person (BQ*).
(3) Unlike English, Arabic also has a dual form for the
second and third persons. As for the first person, the plural
form is used for both the dual and plural.
(4) Hereunder follow the paradigms of the perfect tense.
Note that the first three froms are for the masculine while
the second three are for the feminine of the third person.
The following six forms are for the second person, the first
three being for the masculine and the second three for the
feminine. The final two forms are for the first person.

The Imperfect (
)
The Imperfect () is formed by adding prefixes and/or
suffixes to the perfect tense. The prefixes can either be any of the
W [AW(^). The suffixes may either be ('), ('), (>) or just
letters (
(').
After adding the prefix, the first radical or letter of the verb has
('Q2), e.g. the (
) of (/
D W 1b W>) has a sukûn. The second letter
can have any of the three harakât, depending on which category
(6 ) the verb belongs to.
In the indicative case (O<
), the final vowel of the third
FBQ %&) is ( F) in the singular form of the verb, e.g.
(/
D W 1b W>), (/D W 1b AW), (/D W <b (^) and (/D W 1b #W). For the subjunctive case ( d), this ( F) is changed to ( i*<), e.g. (/^ W 1b W>), (/^ W 1b AW),
(/
^ W <b (^) and (/^ W 1b #W); while for the jussive case (%?‹ ), it is
replaced by a ('Q2), e.g. (/
b W 1b W>), (/b W 1b AW), (/b W <b (^) and (/b W 1b #W). The
radical (
changes in the singular and dual forms will be discussed later.

The (%&) and ('#) of Emphasis
(;##
=[U qb *h %X &^ ) – The Energetic Forms
(1) To create emphasis in the meaning of (
/<), the ( %X &^
=[U qb *h) is prefixed to it and ( B)9 '#) or ( 11M '#) suffixed to
it. The ( B)9 '#) is (7h=+
W X ) and is suffixed to all the word-forms
(—W"
U ). The ( 11M '#) is (2) and is not suffixed to the
( HA) and (w#~ O}) word-forms.
(2) The letter prededing the ( B)9 '#) is (_*1) in the
following word-forms:
h B^W 1b W^ P dIl m = y /D W 1b W> (1)
h B^W 1b *W^ P dIl w#~ = y /D W 1b AW (2)
h B^W 1b *W^ P m = y /D W 1b AW (3)
h B^W <b q^^ P BQ* = y /D W <b (^ (4)
h B^W 1b W^ P BQ* O} y /D W 1b #W (5)
(3) The (60‘
'#) is deleted in the following words before
attaching the (=q* '#):
'• ^BW 1b W^ P dIl m HA y 'U ^BW 1b W> (1)

h BUW 1b *W^ P w#~ = y W [BUW 1b AW (6)
'• ^BW 1b *W^ _ w#~ HA y 'U ^BW 1b AW (7)
(4) The (L) of the (
HA) is retained while the ( B)9 '#) itself
becomes ( Q), e.g. ('
• ^BW 1b W^).
(5) The () of (m O}) and the (‰) of (w#~ =) are also
deleted. The ( F) before the () and the (s ) before the
(‰) are retained, e.g. (
h BDW 1b W^) and (h BUW 1b *W^).
(6)In the (w#~ O}) word-forms, an (L) is inserted between
the ('#) of (O}) and the ( B)9 '#) so that three nûns do not
occur in one place. This will occur in the following two wordforms:
'• WBb W 1b W^ P dIl w#~ O} y W Bb W 1b W> (1)
'• WBb W 1b *W^ P w#~ O} y W Bb W 1b AW (2)
(7) The (
B)9 '#) itself is ( Q) in these two words. In short,
Page 51 - http://www.al-inaam.com/
Madrassah Inaamiyyah Camperdown
From the Treasures of Arabic Morphology
the (
B)9 '#) is ( Q) after (L) and (_*1) in the other
instances.
11M '#) is similar to the ( B)9 '#) except in the
( HA) and (w#~ O}) word-forms. The ( 11M '#) is only used
in those words where there is no (L) before ( B)9 '#) and
(8) The (
these are eight word-forms.
Once (
B)9 '#)
and (
11M '#)
enter a (
/<),
its
meaning changes to the future tense.

The Imperative (()
The (P
P( – imperative second person) is constructed
from the ( /<) in the following manner:
(1) The (P P:0) – the sign of the imperfect tense is deleted.
(2) If the following letter is (ZP
Pi*), the final letter is
rendered (2). Example: the verb (=
X U AW) changes to (=[ 0U ).
(3) If the following letter is (P2), a (/P"
s?Pš) is
inserted at the beginning and the end is rendered (2).
(4) If the ( PFBQ G0) has a ( FP), the (/P" s?Pš) is
rendered a ( F). Example: (X X [AW) becomes ([ X #[(D).
(5) If the ( FBQ G0) has a ( Pi*<) or (sP ), the ( s?Pš
/") is rendered a (s ). Examples:
(]
X *W1b AW) becomes (][ *W<b @U).
(6
X U [ AW) becomes (6
[ U [ @U).
(6) The (6P0‘ '#) is deleted while the (sP 'P#) –

The Active Participle (/01

The active participle (/01
from whom the action
2) indicates the person or being
emanates, e.g. (ÒUW2) – a person who
listens.
In 3-root letter verbs (78
9:9), the (/01 2) is formed by
adding an (L) after the first letter, rendering a (s ) to the
second letter and (>A) to the final letter. Thus, (/
^ W <^) becomes
a 0U ^<). In the dual forms ( HA), (L) and ('#) are attached to
(/
the end, e.g. ('
U:
^ 0U ^<). For the feminine form, a round (s) is
inserted at the end. For the masculine plural (m O}), (') is
inserted, e.g. ('
^ [ BD0U ^<), while for the feminine plural (w#~ O}),
the syllable, (N) is attached, e.g. (N
` :
^ 0U ^<). There are three
scales for the masculine form and three for the feminine form of
the word.

The (
!+ 1")
The (
!+ 1")
is a derived noun referring to the permanent
a [FU $W ) – beautiful. The (/01
quality of an entity, e.g. (/
the other hand describes a temporary quality e.g.
2) on
(ÒUW2) –
listening at the moment. A person will only be referred to as
(6
` U W) if the quality of (6[
W ) emanates from him whereas the
attribute of (/
a [FU $W ) applies to a person all the time.The (
!+)
1"
is always intransitive (%&) even though it may be
constructed from a transitive verb (‰=*). Hence the difference
between (ÒUW2) and (Ò[F
U 2W ) is that (ÒUW2) indicates a being
listening at the moment while (Ò[F
U 2W ) indicates a being which
permanently has the quality of listening even though there may
W W ^B^
be no object. Therefore one can say (
ÒUW2), but to say
(
W W ^B^
Ò[FU 2W ) is incorrect. The ( !+ 1") has six word-forms
like the (/01 2). For the dual and plural forms, changes are
made to the end as in the (/01 2).
Hereunder follows the paradigm of the (

The Derived Forms of the Triliteral Verb
Arabic is extremely rich and copious in derived forms
which extend or modify the meaning of the root form of
the verb, giving many exact shades of meaning. This is a
common feature of Semitic languages and perhaps it
reaches its pinnacle in Arabic.
Derived forms are made by adding letters before or between the
root letters of the simple verb. Accordingly, (W W #W), which is the
root, means to help. From this verb the following verbs are
derived with differing meanings:
Verb
W "
W W#
Meaning
to support
W h WAW
to try to help
W "
W WAW
to render mutual assistance
W W *W#[(U
to come to someone’s aid
W W [*W2[ (U
to ask for assistance
Another example of derived verbs is (/
^ *WK^) which means to kill.
When extra letters are added to this root, the following meanings
are achieved.
Page 91 - http://www.al-inaam.com/
Madrassah Inaamiyyah Camperdown
From the Treasures of Arabic Morphology
Verb
Meaning
to massacre
/^ *hK^
/^ AW^K
to combat, battle
/^ *W*WKb (U
to fight with one another
/^ *W)b *W2[ (U
to risk one’s life
Very few verb roots have all the other derived forms. Some have
only one (like – 6
h v^ to drive away) or two (like L
W W
MW – to sink),
while others have four or five as in the above examples. There is
often a good deal of overlapping of meaning between the forms.
Sometimes the root form is not in use while the derived forms
are used, e.g. ( d
W AhW - to arrange).
The (6 () of (;<
=>? 9:9)
are twelve in total. They are
formed by adding extra letters to the (
/1) of ( 9:9
78). Upto a maximum of three extra letters can be added to a
verb, thus bringing the maximum number of letters of a verb to
six (root letters plus extra letters).
Seven of these (6 () have (/"
s?š) at the beginning while
five do not have. Besides (78 9:9), every letter with a ( )
will become (%F) in the ( ) except for the

[ HU[ !WAX &^ ;0 [ HU[ W
The sign of (a B^B^[ <^
6 ) is the presence of four root letters in the
( /1). The ( :0) of this (6 ) is (%F).
The rule for the (
) of the ( :0) is that if the ( /1
) has four letters, whether root letters or extra letters, the
( :0) will be (%F) even in the active tense
( ), e.g. (%X U Q
b X>), (X ¢ W X>), (/D AU^)X>), (X HU[ !WX>). If the ( /1
) has less than or more than four letters, the ( :0
) will be (_*1), e.g. (X X [W>), (d
X U*Wo
[ W>), (/D W^)*WW>).
Four-root letter verbs are of three types:
W $W [ AW) – to translate.
(1) those of genuine four-radical origin, e.g. (
(2) verbs formed by the doubling of a biliteral root, e.g. (W l
^ [ l^ ) –

W *WF[ AW) – to stammer.
(3) composite roots taken from a familiar phrase or combination
of roots, e.g. (

Bismillāh.

(5.2) If (P
Q )
appears at the beginning of a word, it
is permissible to change it to a (s?š).
Example
(_
` W„U – swordbelt) can be read as (_
` W„@U).
(5.3) If a (P< ) appears in the middle of a word, it is
permissible to change it into a (s?š).
Example
(` X 7[ ^) can be read as (` ˆX 7[ ^).

Conditions for the above rule
This rule only applies if the following conditions are met:
[1] The () or (Zi*
(
PFBQ ,P<).
‰) must not be in the place of the
Therefore this rule will not apply to the word
Page 172 - http://www.al-inaam.com/

From the Treasures of Arabic Morphology
=W 0W W <^
- the () is in the place of the (
FBQ ,<) and the
( ) is a (Lf0 ). It will also not apply to (›<
W AW)
because the () is in the place of the ( PFBQ ,P<) of ( 6P
/“1A).
It will also not apply to W h WAW - (‰) is in the place of the
( FBQ ,<) of (/“1A 6 ).
[2] The () or (‰) must not be in place of the (
PFB ) of
a word which is (LP1). (LP1 is that word which has two
PB P). Therefore this law will not apply to the word
(¯WP^j) . Here () is in the place of the ( PFB ). The
law will also not apply in the word (
W PUW ). Here (‰) is in
the place of the ( FB ).
[3] The () or (‰) must not come before the (LP
P) of
PP
PHPA). Therefore this law will not apply to the word
(WPW07W ), since there is a () before the (LP) of ( PPHPA)
and in the word (P
PWW), since there is a (‰) before the
(L) of ( PHPA).

[4] The () or (‰) must not come before a ({=P
PI
{C=P).
Therefore this law will not apply to the word (/
a PP[>U j^ )
P
because the () is before a (‰) which is not a ( P
BP"(). It will also not apply in the word (` [ PXl^ ) because
the () after the (‰) is not a (BP" P). Also in the
word (a PWWl
^ ), the (‰) is before an (LP
P) which is not a
(B" ).
Objection
In the words ([0
W 7W ), ('^ [ PW+€
[ W>), ('^ [ PW+€
[ AW) and (W [PW+€
[ AW), the
() and (‰) were not supposed to be changed to (LP
P)
because they came before a ({=PI
{C=P),
but yet this rule
has been applied.
Answer
The (‰) in these words is a separate word and it is the
(/0<) of the (/P<), while the ({=P) is not (=PI), therefore
the () or (‰) changes to (L) and then falls off due to
(G2
F*$@).

2. In the word (‰

3. In the word (‰
` [ PXX ), (which is the
=P
of
›PWW

Another example where this rule will not apply is the word

The paradigms of this verb are similar to those of (
D [ )D W>
^ ^K).
The rules of (F) have to be applied to the (s?š) while the
rules of (/*) apply to the (). Wherever there is a conflict of
the two, the rules of (/*) will be given preference. For
example, (
D [ ~X W>) was originally (D X qb W>). It required the rule of
` (bW ) to change the (s?š) to (L), whereas the rules of (/*)
(\
required the transferring of the harakah to the preceding letter.
Preference was awarded to the latter.
Similarly, (
D [ ˆX (^) was originally (D X ,V (^). The rule of (W W ‚)
required changing the (s?š) to (L). However, the rule of
(/*) of transferring the harakah was preferred. It became
(
D [ ˆX (^). Thereafter, the second hamzah was changed to () due to
the rule of (%X 7U W(^). It became (
D [ X (^).

This (6 ) is similar to (O

to be considered here as well. Consequently, in the word (=

the rule of (O

Analysis
(1) The verb (¯œW>) was originally (‰
X (^[ W>). The rule of (/D ^[ W>) is
first applied after which the (‰) is changed to (L) due to rule
no. 7. This change applies to all the word-forms except the dual
D ^[ W>) applies. In the plural
form in which only the rule of (/
masculine forms and the singular second person feminine, the
(L) is deleted due to (G
(2) In words like (¯œW>
F*$).
[ ^), no visible change has taken place
because the (L) does not accept any harakah.
(3) The (L) is deleted from words like (W W>
[ ^) because of the
(
[ ^).

(4) In words like (
h W>W W^), the (‰) reverts in place of the (L)
because the latter cannot accept a harakah. The (
B)9 '#)
i*<) before it.
(5) In ('
 X W W^), due to (G F*$) between the () and the
('), and the () is not a (s=). Therefore a ( F) is rendered to it
to indicate the deletion of the ().
(6) The imperative (W ) is constructed from (¯œAW). After deleting
the ( :0), the (L) is deleted from the end. It becomes
(W ).
(7) The imperative (
h W>W ) was originally (W ). The ( B )
which was deleted due to a (LK) now reverts. However, the
(L) was not capable of upholding a harakah. Hence, the (‰)
which changed into (L) reverts so that it can carry the ( i*<)
which the ( B)9 '#) requires before it. It becomes (
h W>W ). In (' X W )
and (
h U>W ), the () and (‰) are rendered a dammah and kasrah
respectively because they are not (s=). A harakah is not
permissible on a (s=). The dammah indicates the deletion of the
requires a (

(1) The remainder of the paradigm is similar to (TO[!UW>
W W).
(2) The verb (,T W+W>
,S W„) which is (I> $( %: F) can
be from (O- 6 ) or (]*< 6 ). A letter from the ( )B )
is present in the ( FBQ %&). The (s ) of the ( /1) is
not visible. In the verbs before (
W b„U ), the (‰) was changed to
(L). The original of the (L) could therefore be either ( ‰
s Q) or ( *1 ‰). The question arises as to why the verbs
from (
W b„U ) till (Wb„U ) have been rendered a kasrah. The answer to
this is that if this verb is from (O- 6 ), the kasrah of the ( ,<
FBQ) indicates the kasrah of the ( FBQ G0). If this verb is
from (]*< 6 ), the kasrah of the ( FBQ ,<) indicates the
deleted (‰) as in (
W [ U).

(3) In the imperative (
b $U ) and the words affected by (%?$) like
(
bo
U W>
[ ^), the hamzah can be changed to (‰). In (qb „W ) and ( [ ^
qb +
W W>), the hamzah can be read as an (L). The ( B ) will
however remain and not be deleted because the hamzah is a root
letter. In (%:
F) the ( FBQ %&) is not deleted.
(4) The hamzah of (
a [ o
U W ) and (a ^[+
U W ) cannot be changed to (‰)
and then (%l7@) be applied because the (‰) is an original letter.
Therefore the rule of ( fM) cannot be applied here as this is not
a (s=I s=).
(5) The (‰) of (
D U>WoW ) and similar words is not changed to a
hamzah because it is a root letter. The rule of (?X IUWo0W ) only applies
to a (s=I ) or (s=I
‰).

There are two differences between (6*K@) and (,=* @). It is a
condition for (6*K@) that it must not be used in (78

For (,=* @), this is not a condition. Secondly, it is a condition for
(6*K@) to be free of letters of (rc@) and extra letters brought
for a particular meaning (½FB

An example of a letter of (rc@) is the () of the verb

Challenging Words
A few difficult verbs of the Holy Qur’ân and other verbs will be
mentioned here because the purpose of learning morphology and
syntax is to understand the meaning of the glorious Qur’ân. An
explanation of these verbs generally refreshes one’s knowledge
of morphology.
The verbs will be written according to their pronunciation and
not according to their Qur’ânic script so that the student can
exercise his mind in trying to figure out the original word. In the
analysis, the correct written form of the word will be provided.
'[)D *h<^
Analysis: This is the imperative (() of the verb (K), the
5") being ( m O}). The original word was ( W
[ #U[ )D AhU), from the (6 ) of (*<@). It was constructed from the
word ('
^ [ )D *hAW) which was originally ('^ [ X)U *hAW). The ( F) of the
(‰) was transferred to the preceding letter after deleting its
harakah. Due to (G F*$), the (‰) which was then
changed to () was deleted. Due to the entry of the ( ), the ( s?š
/") of ([)D Ah@U) was deleted. The final (') is not (60‘ '#)
but ( >K '#) which enters the end of a verb between the verb
and the (BQ* ‰) to protect it from receiving a (s ). It was

originally (
[ #U[ )D Ah^<). The (BQ*

>K '#) was sufficed upon. This occurs very often.
Due to a (LK), the (s ) is also not pronounced. It becomes
('

of the (

whereas the ('#) is ( >K '#).
occurs, a (
Similarly, a verb can sound confusing when the (/"
s?š) is
deleted from the middle of a sentence, especially when a student
is asked to identify the verb by joining the words and reading
them to him, e.g. in the verse (
[ U $U [ D hUFW fb FX b ™
X 1b h W*Xh>(^W>) to

read it as (
[ U $U [ AX), in ([=X !X0[ \
X h W“>(^W>), to read the verb as
(
[ =X !X[ 2X ), in ([ X $U [ /^ [KU), to read the verb as ([ X $U [ ^) and in ( 6
¢ W
'U [ X $U [ ), to read the verb as ('U [ X $U [ U).
When (W) or (&
^ ) enter the perfect tense of those verbs having
(/"
s?š), the alifs of the (W) and (&^ ) are also not pronounced
just as the (/" s?š) is not pronounced. The verbs therefore
sound confusing when read as (d
W W*Wo
[ W ), (W f^ 1^ [W ), (W o
W 1^ [^) and
(7W U [ *X[ W ). This confusion is intensified in (1# 6 ) because
the entry of (&) creates the word (
[ ^) while the entry of ()
creates the word (
[ W ). The same rule applies to the word
(
W [U[ BDi
[ W ). Besides being the (m O}) of (1 2) from
(
a [ BDX ), it can also be (dIl w#~ O}), the tense being ( 1#

Similarly, the word (
W ![U[ X [ W ) is from (<@ 6 ).

Analysis: This verb is from (*<

[ )U *hW>). Due to the jussive mood (%?‹ ), the (‰) at the end is
(
deleted. A pronoun (F) was then attached to the verb which
created the scale of (/

` *U^ ). It is pronounced (L
` *[^ ).

;[ $U [ (^
Analysis: This is the imperative (e

form being (
m =). The pronoun was added to the
U [ (^). In the Qur’ân, after this word,
end of the verb making it (;U $
the words ({X WM(^

was formed, similar to (/

such scales also (2). Consequently, the ({) became (2).
It becomes (;[ $

Analysis: This verb is similar to ([W W ), the word-form being

The verb is not difficult to distinguish but sometimes when a
word has a similar form in another language, confusion can arise.

Analysis: This was originally (

Analysis: This is like the verb (W1b M

here is that the () of this verb is used (G %F) in the
Qur’ân. Consequently, the () supposed to be (W*[ X ) like
(WBb KD) because the word-form is (> #). The scholars of tafsîr
have answered this objection by stating that this verb is used both
on the scale of (OF

() is used from (O- 6 ) and the () from (#).

Appendix A
Morphology or Etymology?
What is the subject of (
P PB0) called in English? Is it
Morphology or Etymology? Firstly, let us examine the
definitions of both these terms in the light of contemporary
works.
The following definition of Morphology appears in “The
Oxford Companion to the English Language”.
“In linguistics, the study of the structure of words as
opposed to syntax, the study of the arrangement of words
in the higher units of phrases, clauses, and sentences. The
two major branches are inflectional morphology (the study
of inflections) and lexical morphology (the study of wordformation).” 21
The following has been mentioned under the term,
‘syntax’:
“The ways in which components of words are combined
into words are studied in morphology, and syntax and
morphology together are generally regarded as the major
constituents of grammar, although in one of its uses,
grammar is strictly synonymous with syntax and excludes
morphology.”22
We find the following definition in Websters Dictionary:
“2 a: a study and description of word-formation in a
language
including
inflection,
derivation,
and
compounding – distinguished from syntax.
B: the system of word-forming elements and processes in

a language.” 23
Encyclopaedia Britannica has the following definition:
“In philology, morphology is that branch of grammar
which examines the forms of words as well as the
principles of word-formation and inflection.” 24
The following definition is found in the World Book:
“Morphology: the study of the formation and structure of
words.” 25
As for Etymology, the following
definitions one may come across:
are
some
of
the
“Etymology: Both the study of the history of words and a
statement of the origin and history of a word, including
changes in its form and meaning.” 26
“…that branch of linguistic science which is devoted to
determining the origin of words.” 27
Websters Dictionary provides the following definition:
“The history, often including the pre-history of a linguistic
form (as a word or morpheme) as shown by tracing its
phonetic graphic, and semantic development since its
earliest recorded occurrence in the language where it is
found, by tracing the course of its transmission from one
language to another by analysing it into the component
parts from which it was put together, by identifying its
cognates in other languages or by tracing it and its

cognates back to a common ancestral form in a recorded
or assumed ancestral language.28
The World Book states:
“Etymology is the study of the origins and development of
words.” 29
In Encyclopaedia Britannica, we find the following
definition:
“…that part of linguistics which is concerned with the
origin or derivation of words.” 30
The Students Encyclopedia states:
“… the study of the origins and history of words.”31
The Universal Standard Encyclopedia has the following:
“… that branch of philology which deals with the origin
and derivation of words, and with the comparison of
words in different members of the same language
group.”32
Under the word, ‘morphology’ in Al-Mughni-Al-Akbar, an
English to Arabic dictionary, the meaning is given as (

In the Hans Wehr Dictionary of Modern Written Arabic,
under the entry (

These definitions clearly indicate that Etymology deals
with the history of words whereas Morphology deals with
the subject of word-formation. Hence the most appropriate
term for

Etymology as has been erroneously used in some books.
