al-Hidayah,
as its name suggests, is a guide to the rules of 'Arabic syntax or sentence
grammar. While many books of grammar contain similar topics and discussions, the
beauty and usefulness of Hidayah
lies in its organization of these topics. Beginning with
the definition of Nahw or 'Arabic syntax, each chapter lays a foundation for another
chapter until the reader, in the end, has been thoroughly exposed to the underlying
fundamentals of 'Arabic syntax.

As a book, al-Hidayah
is somewhat of a mystery. Although it has been used as a text-book
of grammar for generations, it is unclear who its author is. The index of publications in the
Library of Alexandria by Abu Ahmad
Abu 'Ali Ameen lists the author as Ibn Hayyan

Andulusi (Muhammad
Ibn Yusuf)
a resident of Cairo (654-745 H).
Other books, like Kashf
az-Zanun
mentions three other individuals as possible authors: az-Zubair al-Basri
Ibn
Ahmad
ash-Shafi';
'Abdul-Jaleel Ibn Fairuz Gaznavi or Ibn Dastawaih 'Abdullah Ibn Ja'far.

al-Hidayah
has been published in many forms. Islamic seminary students in Iran, Iraq and
other places are familiar with al-Hidayah
as one of the books found in Jami
al-Muqaddimat,
a collection of small books the majority of which are related to 'Arabic
grammar on different levels. The version which is translated here was prepared by the
A
Academy Of Islamic Sciences (mA ) of the Islamic Republic of Iran. This
VA
edited version departs from the tradition arrangement of al-Hidayah
in favor of a text-book
type format with the traditional topics organized into fifty-six lessons. At the end of each
lesson, a summary, questions and exercises are provided to further engage the reader in
the lesson's objectives. This format is easy for the reader to digest and memorize.

Upon completion of the book, the reader will have undoubtedly developed a fundamental
understanding of 'Arabic grammar. Supported with this guidance, the reader can begin to
explore the branches issuing from the fundamentals outlined in this book and the opinions
of notable scholars of 'Arabic grammar.

is understood of a beginning point and end point, like Basrah
and Kufah, as you would

say: A G jvJA

to Kufah.

The signs of Particle are:


It is not proper to make attribution with the particle nor have attribution made to the
particle (itself).
The Particle does not accept the signs of the verb or the noun.
In the Arabic language, there are many benefits of the Particle, like the connection

between two nouns. as in: iAfA

I wrote with the pen; or connection between two sentences, as
and a verb, as in: BI OJN

Speech (A) is an expression comprised of (at least) two words with ascription (eBmA

between one another. Ascription is defined as the connection of one word with the
another, wherein the listener benefits (from the ascription making it) proper for him to

remain silent, as in: fk B Zaid stood.

It is known that speech is only achieved with either two nouns, referred to as a nominal

sentence (mA

VA
), as in: fm
sentence (A oU Sa'eed sat. Then, the ascribed word and that word
which is ascribed to it are not found together in other than the noun and verb. It is
required, therefore, that speech (is comprised) of the two.

The declinable noun is every noun constructed (in an expression) with other than itself

Particle (jZA ); the past-tense verb (yBA

particle.

The (Declinable Noun) is referred to as Mutamakkin (NA

Tanween (NA

Apposition with particles is a subordinate which has attributed to it that which is attributed
to its principle while both are intended to have this relationship. It is also termed 'Atf
an-Nasaq /Conjunctions. Its condition is that one of the particles of apposition is placed

between the subordinate and its principle, as in: fBa

stood.

The Particles of Apposition are: C ,Q ,AA. Their mention will come in the third section,

At times, an independent nominative pronoun is placed between the Mubtada and
Khabar, agreeing with the Mubtada, when the Khabar is definite or a superlative noun. It
is termed a separator because it separates the Mubtada and the Khabar in order to
eliminate (the possibility) of confusing the Khabar with an adjective. It also conveys

servants of Zaid came. The Feminine Ta is elided in (vbA ) Testicles, and (A ) Buttock,

they are the doubling of one thing, not pairs.

When you desire to annex one dual to another dual, you designate the first with the

plural, like the saying of the Exalted: {BfC "And as for the man who

The Passive-Voice Verb

The passive-voice verb is a verb whose subject has not been mentioned. It is a verb
whose subject is elided and the verbal object is put in its place. It is particular to the
transitive verb.151

The passive-voice verb's signs in the past-tense verb are that the first letter is vowelled
with Dammah
only and that which is before its end is vowelled with Kasrah, in those forms
in which Hamzah al-Wasl .
as in: XjYe
is not in their beginning, nor the extraneous Ta, ,Ljy

The Particle of Incitement are four: (B , ,C ,). They require initiating speech. Its

meaning is to incite an action when entered upon the present-tense, as in: DM You're
not eating? (It has the meaning of) censure and rebuke when entered upon the

past-tense, as in: Afk OjC You did not honor Zaid? At that time, it is not incitement
except in consideration of that which has passed. It is only entered upon a verb, as has
passed. If a noun occurs after it, then, it is with the concealment of a verb, just as you

would say to he who helped a people: Afm Why not Sa'eed? Meaning in other words:

Pjv Why didn't you help Sa'eed?
Afm
All of them are compounds. Its second part is a Particle of Negation and its first part is a
Conditional Particle, a Particle Resembling a Masdar
or Particle of Interrogation.

The Particle of Restriction () is coined for censure of the speaker and his determent

The Sakin
Feminine Ta

It is a particle attached to the past-tense verb in order to indicate the feminine of that

which has been ascribed to the verb, as in: f OC Hind ate. You are familiar with the
circumstances requiring its attachment.

When the Ta meets a Sakin


with Kasrah,
letter after it, it is required to vowel (the Ta)

because the Sakin letter when it is vowelled, it is vowelled with Kasrah, as in: vA f
OB
The prayer is ready.

Its vowelization does not require the return of that which was elided due to its being

Sakin.
) CjA
Therefore, it is not said in the verb (Oi PBi
. It is because its vowel is
non-essential (used) for the purpose of repelling the meeting of two Sakin letters. The

saying: BMBi BMCjA
, is weak.

Regarding the attachment of the sign of the dual, the masculine plural and feminine
,flA
plural, then it is (also) weak. Therefore, it is not said: FnA AB
,AflA
BB. With
the estimation of attachment, then there are no pronouns so as not to require
concealment (of the pronoun) before mention (of the pronoun).246 Rather, they are signs

indicating the states of the subject, like the Feminine Ta.

it is vowelled with Kasrah, as

At times, the Nun is entered upon oaths as a requirement in order to emphasize the

Regarding the Fathah in the singular, then it is because if it were vowelled with Dammah,
it could be confused with the masculine plural. If it were vowelled with Kasrah, it could be
confused with the second-person feminine singular. Regarding the dual and feminine

plural, it is because that which is before the Nun , BJNC
is Alif, as in: BJNC . The Alif is
added in the feminine plural before the Nun of Emphasis due to the dislike of combining

The Lightened Nun of Emphasis is never entered upon the dual nor the feminine plural
