Title: A Commentary On Al-Ajrumiyyah
Sub Title: A billingual rendition of Muhammad Muhi al-Din ibn 'Abd al-Hamid's (d.1393h) renowned commentary on Ibn Ajurum's (d.723h) primer entitled al-Tuhfat al-Saniyyah bi Sharh al-Muqadimmat al-Ajrumiyyah.
Full Description: 'Umar bin al-Khattab (ra) said, "Learn the Arabic language, it will produce intellect and increase you in respectable behaviour." [Shu'ab al-Imam of al-Bayhaqi,1551]
Ibn Hazm (ra) said, "Anyone who seeks knowledge of nahw and the Arabic language with the intention of implementing the Shari'ah and understanding the Words of Allah, the Most High, and the words of His Prophet, and to have a broader understanding of the religion; then this person will have a great reward and a lofty status by which he will not be surpassed by anyone. " [Rasa'il ibn Hazm 3/162]
Al-Suyuti (ra) said, "Those who explained this book (al-Ajrumiyyah), such as al-Makudi, al-Ra'i and others, have described its author as being an imam in nahw, and possessing many blessings and benefits. An example of this is his Muqadimmah which has been extremely beneficial for beginners in studying nahw." [ Bugyat al-Wu'at fi Tabaqat al-Lughawiyin wa al-Nuhat 1/238]
Ibn Haj (ra) said, "Proof that this book is beneficial is that Allah has given it acceptance, to the extent that this has become the very first book (for beginners) that is studied prior to the commencement of reading the Qur'an al-Azim. This Muqadimmah will give you benefits and understanding in the shortest time possible." [al-Taliqatu al-Jaliyyatu 'ala Sharh al-Ajrumiyyah, p.43]
Publishers Note: The main purpose of this translation is two fold:
Firstly, to aid teachers in delivering classes on al-Tuhfat al-Saniyyah. Having access to a translation will allow the teacher to spend more time in explaining the book rather than preparing a translation. Furthermore it can help to bridge the gap between the stronger and weaker students in a class ( in terms of their Arabic comprehension), which sometimes gives difficulty to the teacher in assessing the level of teaching which should be delivered.
Secondly, to serve as a bridge for students who may have learned the basics of Arabic but are not a level yet to read an Arabic grammar book cover to cover purely in Arabic without difficulty. Depending on the level of the student they can read the Arabic and review their understanding with the English or use the English as an aid whilst reading the Arabic.
In order to fulfil this, the complete Arabic text has been provided and the translation has been kept as literal as possible, exceptions being in rare places where the translation would be strange if it was done in this manner.
Some grammatical terms have been transliterated to aid the flow of the translation and due to the importance of them being known to the student. This has most commonly been done for the following terms:
. Al-raf', al-nasb, al-khafd/al-jarr and al-jazm. These refer to the nominative, accusative, genitive and jussive states respectively. Words in these states are referred to as: marfu', mansub, makhfud/majrur and majzum.
. The parts of the idafah (possessive) construction: al-mudaf (the possessed) and the mudaf ilayh (the possessor).
Supplementary notes have been extracted from the works of Shaykh ibn al-'Uthaymin and from classical works quoted in al-Hulal al-Dhahabiyyat 'ala al-Tuhfat al-Saniyyah.
I ask Allah to accept this and cause it to aid the teaching of the language of His book, and that it become widespread in benefit like the illustrious works of our shaykh, Dr. V. Abdur Rahim (may Allah preserve him).
