About The Book
Al-Sarf al-Jilani - is a brand new publication in the study of Arabic word morphology / etymology (Sarf).
The majority of words in the Arabic language are intertwined in meaning and form with other words by means of root letters and common word patterns. Al Sarf al-Jilani is the study of these roots and patterns and the effects that they have on the meanings of words.
A mastery of Sarf is essential for a deeper understanding of the subtleties of the Arabic language. See images below for clear samples of the various sections.
Al-Sarf al-Jilani is aimed at the English speaking student and has been meticulously compiled by three young Sayyid (al-Jilani) UK based scholars. It is fitting that their grandfather was a supreme Master of the Arabic language, which earned him the title of Imam an-Nahw, he is non other than 'Sadr al-Ulema' Allama Sayyid Ghulam Jilani al-Meruthi, rahmatullahi ta'ala 'alayhi.
