د . مصطفى الحنون — 2025-12-02

Al-Kamil fi al-Tarikh by Ibn al-Athir (630 AH/1232 AD) is considered one of the important historical books. Its author excelled in presenting a tragic narrative that expresses emotion and panic, reflecting the magnitude of the tragedy of the Islamic world in the consciousness of contemporaries of the Mongol invasion, which is considered one of the most prominent transformations in the reality of the Islamic world at the beginning of the seventh century AH/thirteenth century AD. This invasion constituted a turning point in the history of the Khwarazmian state and the military, political, social and economic shocks that the Islamic East witnessed later, ending with the fall of the Abbasid Caliphate. Ibn al-Athir described the terror caused by the Mongol invasion and their crimes in people’s souls and the general situation until the year 628 AH/1230 AD, when Ibn al-Athir stopped writing, as he died two years later. His information is distinguished by its accuracy and abundance about the dangerous and sensitive stage in Islamic history.

Commercial Activity in the Caucasus Until the End of the 4th Century AH / 10th Century AD

Mahmood Malallah Qanbar Qanbar — 2025-12-02

He Caucasus region became famous for its economic activity through the export and import of goods, or as a transit route for goods from other countries. The region was known for exporting mules, horses, various weapons, copper tools, and the black fox fur that kings and caliphs, including Caliph Al-Mahdi, adorned themselves with. In addition, the region was known for the fish known as “tarikh,” which was transported to Mosul and Iraq via the Tigris River. However, the white slaves were considered the most significant import for Islamic countries from these lands. Textile products from Islamic countries also reached the region, making their way to pagan nations in the north. Trade activities were concentrated in towns like Barda, Ardabil, and Dabil, among others. Some cities in the region, such as Derbent and Atel, were considered centers for trade between the northern peoples and the southern Muslim regions. These cities hosted traders from various nations, including Muslims, Armenians, Romans, Syrians, Lann, Bulgarians, and Russians. It is important to note that the Russians often combined trade with warfare, making it difficult to determine when their trading ships transformed into warships. Coins minted in Iraq were also found in many areas of the Caucasus

Nashwan Mohamed Abdulaalh Al-Zubaidy — 2025-12-02

Wheat is the main food item that most people live on, which constitutes the main material for their daily food, and it is no secret to anyone that the importance of wheat and its significant effects are important on people's lives and daily livelihood, so any impact affects it in terms of high wheat prices or scarcity of supply in the markets, and of course, any negative impact affects it reflected on the overall daily life of people, and this effect was represented by showing the movement of prices for wheat and its impact On the prices of bread and its quality in terms of variation and fluctuation between rise and fall, and its great impact, leads to frequent confrontations between the public and the authority because of that, and so we note that the Levant and Egypt have been exposed to cases of high wheat prices and scarcity in the markets and the occurrence of social unrest and hunger because of that..

Houses of Bani Al-Nabbit of the Aws tribe

Muhammad Natiq Ismail Ismail — 2025-12-02

This research deals with one of the clans of the Aws tribe, namely Bani al-Nabit ibn Malik ibn al-Aws, who played a major role in supporting the Islamic call during the era of the message. The research will provide details about the origin of Bani al-Nabit, as the origins of Bani al-Nabit go back to the Qahtanite Azd tribe, as the Azdi tribes migrated from Yemen due to the collapse of the Ma'rib Dam. Among these tribes are the Aws and Khazraj tribes, which settled in Yathrib (Medina).

The research also provides details about the homes of Bani Nabit in Medina, as they lived in areas close to each other, specifically in the east of Medina on the outskirts of Harrat Waqim. The distribution of tribes in Medina was affected by three factors: soil fertility, the abundance of valleys, and the availability of wells. Harrat Waqim, east of Medina, was one of the most fertile areas of Medina, so most of the homes of the people of Medina were in its southern and western parts. The most prominent areas settled by Bani Nabit in the north and east of Medina were: Al-Saflah, Al-Arid, Shaykhan, Al-Jawaniyyah, Ratij, and Al-Aswaf. Bani Nabit had a number of wells, including: Bir Jasoum, from which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) drank; Bir Marq, which witnessed the gathering of the first Muslims and where Saad ibn Muadh and Asid ibn Hudayr converted to Islam at the hands of Mus'ab ibn Umair; Bir Al-Quraysah, and Bir Dashm. The Banu Nabit had a number of atams: these were forts built by the people of the city from stone, and they were a means of defense, protection, and decoration for the people of the city. Their shapes varied between square and round, and they were sometimes attributed to people’s names. The number of atams of the Banu Nabit reached fourteen atams, and the Banu Haritha had the largest share of the atams due to their border location. They also had a number of mosques that were religious and scientific centers, built from mud, including: the Waqim Mosque, the Sheikhs’ Mosque, the Banu Dhafar Mosque, and the Noor Mosque, in many of which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed.

Semantic and syntactic dimensions of verbs in functional grammar

Oday Mahmood Ameen Ameen — 2025-12-02

Functional grammar Is defined as: “It Is the grammar that is not limited to the role played by words or phrases in the sentence, i.e. the functions (structural and grammatical) such as the subject and the object, because these functions represent only a part of a whole, interacting with other functions (situational or communicative) which are the semantic and pragmatic functions, and through them the structural characteristics of linguistic expressions are linked to the communicative.

Communicative purposes that these expressions are used as a means to achieve.”

The study is based on the central hypothesis that verbs, with their pivotal semantic roles in sentence construction, exhibit a complex interplay with syntactic structures, making them a focal point where meaning and structure converge.

The study aims to provide an integrated perspective on understanding how verbs in Arabic are formed by analyzing their semantic roles and their impact on the syntactic organization of sentences. It highlights how verbs are influenced by elements such as tense, subject, object, and other contextual modifiers, creating a linguistic structure that ensures the speaker's communicative intent. The research focuses on uncovering the semantic patterns of verbs (e.g., transitivity and intransitivity) and their reflection in the syntactic structure of sentences, while elucidating the interactive relationship between grammatical elements surrounding the verb.

The study presents a comprehensive analytical model that integrates the semantic and syntactic dimensions of verbs into a unified framework. It demonstrates how this relationship contributes to constructing sentences that achieve a balance between syntactic structure and functional meaning, emphasizing the changes that occur in sentence structure due to the semantic functions performed by the verb in different contexts

The position of the Turkish press on the control Axis powers over the Balkans 1940-1941

Hatem Ahmed Ismail Ismail — 2025-12-02

The circumstances of World War II led to increased press censorship. As Turkish press publications were reshaped according to a changing political strategy, the Turkish government's maneuvers were reflected in its foreign policy, which shifted according to the political circumstances during the war. The Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs' efforts to establish maximum relations with all Axis or Allied powers in order to stay out of the war led to significant developments. Significant developments occurred in 1940, the period when the Axis powers began invading the Balkans and the growing reaction in the Turkish press against the Axis powers, which quickly invaded even the Balkan states that had declared neutrality. The dangers that emerged in the Balkans and the Aegean Sea in October 1940, when Italy attacked Greece, played a role. In the same year, Germany occupied Hungary and Romania, and the Turkish press's position on German hegemony over Romania and its impact on the situation in the Balkans became clear. Furthermore, the Turkish press's position on the Italian attack on Greece, a neighboring country, and its sympathy with the Greeks in defending their country were also highlighted. In the first half of 1941, the atmosphere of Axis dominance prevailed in the Balkans. After the Axis occupation of Yugoslavia and Greece in the first half of 1941 and the complete control of the Axis powers over the Balkans, the comments in the Turkish newspapers also changed. Anti-Axis articles in the Turkish press increased, and the harsh tone was evident in the articles published in the newspapers in the spring of 1941. It was clear that the Turkish press was under the control of the Turkish government and that its positions largely reflected the foreign policy of the Turkish government.

This research examines the relationship between the body and the value system from a cultural perspective. It is a complex topic where diverse cultures and traditions overlap. The meaning and function of the body in marriage vary according to cultural and religious contexts, leading to significant variations in perceptions and practices. In many cultures, the body is considered a symbol of dignity and identity, viewed as a tool for expressing desire and love, and a means of social acceptance. In many societies, marriage is considered a bond between two families or tribes, and the cultural framework determines how the contract is formed, in terms of the dowry, the roles between spouses, and the dowry. Customs and traditions influence how the body is understood within the framework of marriage. Some cultures emphasize purity and virginity, while others view sexual expression as a natural part of the relationship. Some civilizations have begun to revise their views of the body and marriage in light of economic and social changes. Health issues are also related to this topic, as it is essential for both spouses to be in good health, which reflects a healthy awareness within marital bonds. This study explores the topic by highlighting the importance of understanding cultural identity and how it influences social norms. It defines the objectives of the study, which analyzes the influence of cultural values and provides recommendations to promote acceptance of bodily diversity. The case study approach, a research method used to analyze a specific topic, is used. The study seeks to gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between the body and the value system, and to provide recommendations that enhance cultural awareness and support mental health. It also contributes to enriching the discussion about the body and culture, strengthening understanding between different cultures.

Manifestations of Violence in Everyday Language: An Analytical Study of the Social Thought System in Iraqi Society.

Shalal Hamid Suliman Al-Joubory — 2025-12-02

Verbal violence is a phenomenon observed in most human societies throughout history, albeit to varying degrees. Virtually no language in the world is entirely devoid of violent expressions .While verbal violence manifests as an individual act during speech, it is fundamentally a social phenomenon, as individuals acquire these aggressive terms from their social environment. These violent expressions are not merely fleeting words; their meanings and connotations reflect the speaker's psychological and social state, revealing the depth of their emotional and societal influences Manifestations of Verbal Violence ,Verbal violence can be direct or indirect: Indirect verbal violence includes gestures, facial expressions, neglect, marginalization, malicious gossip, and heavy-handed humor. Direct verbal violence involves insults, curses, and false accusations, defamation of honor, scathing criticism, harsh blame, shouting, and threats.This phenomenon has psychological and social repercussions: Psychological effects: Deterioration of mental health, low self-esteem, increased stress and agitation, reduced quality of life, and heightened feelings of isolation and depression. Social effects: Erosion of social bonds, weakened trust among societal groups, and impaired functioning of key social institutions (e.g., family and school systems). The growing normalization of vulgar language—now commonplace in homes, streets, and even educational institutions—signals a dangerous societal shift. A Complex Interplay of Factors This phenomenon cannot be explained through a single-factor logic. Its escalation results from the interaction of multiple factors: Environmental and historical influences Psychological, social, cultural, economic, and political factors. These elements have particularly shaped Iraqi society over the past century.

Alienation and Capitalist Exploitation: A Marxist Critique of Ursula K. Le Guin's The Word for World Is Forest

Israa Yass Khudier Khudier — 2025-12-02

This study examines The Word for World Is Forest by Ursula K. Le Guin through Marxist literary critique to identify themes of alienation and capitalist exploitation. The novel provides a dystopian vision of colonialism, ecological destruction, and institutionalized exploitation of labor that resonates with historical and contemporary struggles against imperialism. Drawing on Karl Marx's ideas of alienation and surplus value, this study illustrates ways in which the novel condemns capitalism through forced labor and commodification of indigenous Athsheans. The study also examines class consciousness among Athsheans and their revolutionary rebellion as a form of resistance to colonialism. Le Guin's novel not only highlights dehumanizing effects of capitalism on oppressors and oppressed alike but also raises important questions on ethics and psychology of violence in resisting colonialism. In addition, this study puts Le Guin's critique in a broader context of Marxist literature to examine its relevance to contemporary socio-political issues such as corporate exploitation, ecological responsibility, and indigenous rights. By integrating Marxist critique with science fiction studies, this study underscores that the novel remains significant as a literary critique of capitalist colonialism and that it has deep implications for today's struggles against economic and ecological injustice.

Hassan Mohammed Arab Arab — 2025-12-02

There is a deeply rooted linguistic relationship between Turkish and Arabic, and it is well-known that the Arabic language has significantly influenced the Turkish language. Although the influence of Turkish on Arabic has not been as extensive, it has left clear marks on Arabic dialects, particularly the Mosul dialect. This can be attributed to the long period during which the Ottomans ruled the city of Mosul, leaving a significant impact on the daily lives of its people, including their language. Through this study, the influence of the Turkish language on the Mosul dialect has been highlighted. The Mosul dialect has incorporated many Turkish words and expressions that have become part of the daily speech of the city's inhabitants. This influence became more pronounced during the period of Turkification policies implemented by the Ottomans, where learning Turkish became mandatory in schools, and Turkish was the official language of education. Additionally, trade relations between Mosul and neighboring Turkish regions further reinforced this influence

In this study, examples of Turkish terms and expressions that have entered the Mosul dialect were examined, along with proverbs that reflect this influence. The study demonstrates that the Turkish language has left a noticeable impact on the everyday speech of the people of Mosul, reflecting the depth of cultural and historical ties between the two regions..

Investigating Kurdish Translators’ Stance towards Neutrality from an Academic and Professional Perspective

Adil Ahmed Abdulazeez Abdulazeez — 2025-12-02

The current study explores Kurdish translators' stances on neutrality from academic and professional perspectives, shedding light on the challenges of maintaining neutrality in various contexts. This includes sensitivity of linguistic representation in a culturally, politically, and socially charged environment that translators need to negotiate. The study analyzes how neutrality is interpreted and utilized in academic and professional contexts, considering the employer and the audience's expectations, the context, and the translation's intended use. This study uses a quantitative technique to evaluate academics' and professionals' perspectives of neutrality in translation. A standardized questionnaire was provided to various participants, including academics and industry professionals. Data for quantitative responses were examined using statistical methods, resulting in a full picture of the translators' viewpoints. The data show that there is widespread agreement on the impact of culture and politics on neutrality, with cultural elements having the greatest influence. While academics and professionals seek impartiality, freelancers have a stronger consensus on cultural issues. It is argued that, despite differences in context, translators have shared professional attitudes, highlighting translation processes that prioritize translation accuracy while including ethical considerations and cultural sensitivity.

Indirect Defamation in Iraqi Social Media: Analyzing Grice’s Violated Maxims across Different User Types

Sana Atif Abdullah Albaiat Albaiat — 2025-12-02

In online discourse, users often avoid direct accusations by implying defamatory meanings through indirect language. Social media platforms, particularly in Iraq, provide a space where individuals navigate defamation through implicit strategies, often violating conversational norms. This qualitative study investigates indirect defamation in Iraqi social media through the lens of Grice’s Conversational Implicature (1975). It hypothesizes that different Iraqi social media users engage in indirect defamation by violating Grice’s maxims in distinct ways, with frequently violations of Quality and Manner maxims and that figures of speech, particularly exaggeration and sarcasm, play a key role in conveying implicit defamatory meanings. Data were collected from public posts and comments on Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter), focusing on four distinct user categories: public figures with real identities, public figures with fake identities, anonymous pages/admins, and private individuals with few followers. Findings reveal that the maxim of Quality is the most frequently violated across all samples, followed by Relevance, while Manner and Quantity appears to be less frequently violated. These violations are often accompanied by figures of speech, particularly sarcasm, exaggeration, metonymy, and euphemism, shaping implicit defamatory meanings. Notably, public figures using real identities tend to employ metonymy and euphemism, while those with fake identities or limited public exposure rely on sarcasm and exaggeration.

Combating Moral Corruption in the Mamluk Era(648-923 AH/ 1250-1517 AD): A Historical Study

Othman Ismael Al-Tel Al-Tel — 2025-12-02

The Mamluks ruled Egypt more than two and half century. During the Mamluk era the Egyptian society, such as other human societies through history witnessed of many aspects of moral corruption. Despite the modern studies addressing many issues related to the Mamluk history, however, none of these studies dealt with in details of the efforts of the Mamluk state to combat moral corruption in Egypt expect in brief indications. Hence, the importance of this study, which adopts a historical approach by referring to and analyzing the available primary historical narratives. This study sheds light on the efforts of the Mamluk state to combat moral corruption in Egypt. It focuses on issues such as the prohibition of alcohol, vice, cannabis (hashish), and other immoral practices. The study highlights measures taken by the state, including the issuing of decrees banning these activities, raids on places where such substances were consumed or promoted, and the punishments imposed on violators. It also discusses the restrictions placed on women, as they were considered a significant factor linked to moral corruption, especially regarding their presence in public places, attire, and attendance at places associated with immoral behavior.

Persuasion in Written and Spoken Advertising: A Comparative Study

Rana Abid Dhyab Dhyab — 2025-12-02

Language is everywhere, and we need it in almost everything. Language is used to connect, perform social actions, and provide a medium for social interactions. Language is organized and collaborative. Whether through verbal communication or written texts, as human beings, our means to successful interaction is through language. Nonetheless, according to linguists, there are not very fine differences between spoken and written language. Researchers agree that there are no fine differences between written and spoken discourse. How about persuasive language used according to the context? Are there fine differences between the persuasive language used in both written and spoken discourse? This study aims to investigate and answer this question. When it comes to successful marketing and advertising, it is evident that language plays a big role. The aim in this paper is to analyze persuasive language in both written (non-interactional) advertising and real-life (interactional/ engaging) advertising and marketing. The researcher, in this paper, aims to study the ways in which persuasive language varies according to the context in which it is used. And whether or not the strategies of persuasive linguistics are the same between written and spoken discourse. By studying and investigating the persuasiveness of language among written advertisements (non-interactional) and spoken (real-life) selling and marketing. By comparing written and spoken advertisements and ways of linguistic persuasion in both settings or contexts, these aims are, hopefully, to be reached through studying persuasive language and persuasive language strategies in written (non-interactional) advertising and real-life (interactional/ engaging) advertising or marketing. For as they say, “Language is a powerful tool!.

The multiplicity of literary trends and genres in "The Foam of Days" by Boris Vian

Hassan Moayad Abbas Abbas — 2025-12-02

The subject of my research focuses on the multiplicity of literary currents and genres in Boris Vian's L'Écume des Joures. He is a man of many talents: he is a writer, poet, lyricist, singer, translator, painter, music critic, and jazz trumpeter. In the second chapter, entitled "A Novel at the Crossroads of Several Genres and Literary Currents," I will seek out surrealist traits through burlesque, fantasy, and hoax. Certainly, Boris Vian tries all literary movements, but one wonders why the irrational and the humorous prevail throughout his novel.

At the same time, I shed light on how Boris Vian views existentialism and its creator, whom he calls Jean-Sol Partre, as well as the Zazous, as a social phenomenon in reaction to the Vichy government. What does Vian propose as an alternative to existentialism? Finally, it seems that L'Écume is close to the tale and the Nouveau Roman. Is the marvelous sufficient to classify it as a tale? Could Boris Vian be considered a precursor of the nouveau roman?

The foundation of the science of theology in the era of revelation (Applied study)

Masoud Muhammad Ali Ali — 2025-12-02

This research is a realistic scientific debate that demonstrated the confrontation of groups of people with proof, each according to his mentality. Because returning with proof is more correct than returning with the sword. Because fear may lead its owner to be hypocritical, while the person with proof is not like that.

He confirms that the roots of the science of theology, whose goal is to defend the truths of faith in a rational and convincing way, were present in the Qur'an and desirable science, as appeared from the debate of Abraham - peace be upon him.

It gives us insight into knowing God without excessive denial or excessive comparison, but rather with a knowledge befitting His majesty that there is nothing like Him.

He uses methods of persuasion according to the classes of people, perhaps by stimulating the innate sense without using scientific terminology in reasoning. It may be by using the balance of reason and logic in an easy form, or it may be by using reason in a precise form, which is the path of philosophy or the path of the mysterious and precise rationalist

Natural place as a poetic signifier According to Ibn Zamrak al-Andalusi (d. 797 AH)

Moqdad Kalil Qasim Al/Ghatony — 2025-12-02

The natural space, in its poetic functional dimension, is worthy of moving within objective visions dependent on the text's elements, whether apparent or inspired by narrative structures. The event is linked to the space in its containment and documentation as a poetic signifier, and is based on psychological integration and emotional identification with it. The vision it conveys emerges from the context of the experience; a sense that captures the aesthetics of the space and its actors with poetic images that it brings together within a comprehensive context. This sense of spatial vision gives the experience its essence, granting it the potential for influence and precise description. Signifiers secured by the formation of the natural space are identified by the research in (Praise, Women, and Longing) in accordance with reading perspectives that stem from the text and its linguistic and non-linguistic contexts, in which the natural space is a dominant poetic signifier and a governing focus of the vision and its objective dimension..

The Administrative Role of Responsible Human Resources Management in Information Technology

Nazar Khorsheed Mama Mama — 2025-12-02

This research aims to investigate the use of pronouns and relative pronouns in the story of Moses -peace be upon him- in the Holy Qur'an, in accordance with the textual criteria advocated by the American linguist De Beaugrande: (casting, weaving, intentionality, contextuality, situationality, information, and intertextuality). From this scholar's perspective, if these textual criteria are met in any text, it is considered a text with a cohesive cast. However, if one of these criteria is missing, it is not considered a text. The Holy Qur'an was revealed in clear Arabic. Since these criteria were designed to analyze linguistic texts, it is no surprise that they serve the Holy Qur'an, elevate its status, and raise its standing. The goal behind this type of study is to demonstrate the textual analysis of texts, based on the criteria of syntax, including reference, and how reference operates within the rules and frameworks of the text discussed by linguists, including textualists. Just as the sentence has rules and foundations, the text must also have rules and foundations. Textual studies are still in their developmental stages.

The story of Moses -peace be upon him- is one of the most frequently cited stories in the Holy Quran, appearing in more than forty places across thirty-six surahs (chapters) of the Quran, in more than five hundred and fifty verses, both long and short. Therefore, we wanted to apply a mechanism and tools of textual linguistics, namely, referencing the story of Moses -peace be upon him- in the Holy Quran. The story of Moses -peace be upon him- may not always be mentioned in a chronological order with other Quranic stories. It may come before the stories of other prophets, or it may be mentioned chronologically within the stories of the prophets. This research plan can be divided into an introduction and two axes. In the introduction, we provide a brief definition of textual linguistics, its mechanisms, and the tools of coherence, including consistency and cohesion in the text. The first axis addresses referential pronouns in the story of Moses -peace be upon him- in the Holy Quran, while the second axis addresses referential pronouns in the story of Moses -peace be upon him- in the Holy Quran. The research concludes with a conclusion, highlighting the most important findings of this research. Then is followed by a list of resources and references, in Arabic and English

Ruins and personal introductions in the poetry of Manjak Pasha (d. 1080 AH(

فارس ياسين محمد الحمداني — 2025-12-02

The introductions come as a poetic painting, crowning a group of psychological and social approaches that govern awareness at the moment of creative production. The introductions bear the poet’s readiness to disclose hopes and aspirations that keep the recipient in uninterrupted communication, and their impact remains on him.

Introductions are one of the basic and important keys to entering the depths of the text; it is the main threshold imposed on poets to dive into, and forced the recipient to dismantle it, examine it and interrogate it, and in doing so it targets the recipient’s interest to attract him to it and put him in direct contact with it, to reveal its mysteries and secrets, and each introduction has its own beauty; because it possesses a poetic specificity that distinguishes it from others.

Title in the collection (Saqt Al-Zand)

Yahya Tawfiq Saead Saead — 2025-12-02

The title of the collection of poems (Saqt Al-Zand) by Abu Al-Ala Al-Maari is one of the unique titles that was not used by any poet of his time or before him. This title reflects the state of frustration and existential questioning that the poet is experiencing. His style is distinguished by innovation compared to the traditional titles that were used to name the diwans in the Abbasid era. Thus, the title (Saqt Al-Zand) opens a door to contemporary critical contemplation. It is considered part of the (textual thresholds) in modern literary criticism, as it constitutes a shift in understanding the titles of the collections of poetry in that era. In the era of Abu al-Ala al-Ma’arri or the era before him. The collections were usually named after the poet himself, as in (Diwan al-Buhturi) and (Diwan al-Mutanabbi), which revolves around the traditional character prevailing in naming literary works.

Thus, the title of the collection (Saqt Al-Zand) constitutes a departure from the usual naming of collections. Thus, the title of the collection (Saqt Al-Zand) constitutes a departure from the usual naming of collections, and it adds to the uniqueness of Abu al-Ala al-Ma’arri intellectually and stylistically, as it carries connotations of modesty, self-criticism, and the literary tendency in his poetry, which distinguished the poet, making him a milestone in the development of Arab literary awareness.

Arabic dialects according to Ibn Jinni (d. 392 AH) in his book of Characteristics

Amina Mahir Aziz Aziz — 2025-12-02

This research studies the Arabic dialects mentioned in the book (The Characteristics) by Abu al-Fateh Uthman ibn Jinni (d. 392 AH). It begins with a brief introduction aimed at clearly and concisely distinguishing between the concepts of language and dialect. In this introduction, we refer to a precise and important issue that Ibn Jinni touched upon in this book: the issue of the disagreement among Arabs regarding their dialects. The introduction highlights his view toward those who claim the existence of this disagreement, whichserves as a pivotal entry point for understanding his methodology. This is followed by a core study of the research, which addresses the Arabic dialects mentioned in (The Characteristics), divided into two main sections to organize the scientific material and facilitate its review. The first section focuses on the words mentioned by Ibn Jinni, indicating that they are an Arabic dialect . These are arranged alphabetically to ensure easy reference and classification. The second section deals with the issues in which Ibn Jinni mentioned a number of Arabic dialects, also arranged alphabetically, similar to the first section. In both section, the research is careful to clarify Ibn Jinni's statement regarding each of these dialects separately, to explain his methodology in attributing those dialects to their speakers, and to reveal the variation in this attribution, whether through documentation or lack thereof. The research concludes with a summary that includes the most important findings and conclusions reached by this study in uncovering the Arabic dialectal material within the book (The Characteristics).

Verb categories in Akkadian and Hebrew

امين الامين — 2025-12-02

Abstract:

Speech consists of nouns, verbs, and particles, and the verb represents one of its most significant components. From this perspective arises the importance of the present study, which examines the categories of the verb in Akkadian and Hebrew. The research aims to investigate the divisions of the verb in these two languages with respect to its derivation—namely its root and original consonants, whether strong or weak—as well as its patterns, forms, states, tenses, meanings, and conjugational behavior. The study also addresses the classification of verbs according to the strength or weakness of their consonants (strong vs. weak), in addition to their semantic classification into intransitive verbs, transitive verbs, stative verbs, and motion verbs, in a manner comparable to the system found in Arabic.

Morphological Forms with one meaning in Al-Jumhara by Ibn Duraid (d. 321 AH

أ.د.شيبان أَديب رمضان الشيباني — 2025-12-02

Al-Jamhara contains a rich and extensive linguistic material. Ibn Duraid (d. 321 AH) transmitted from the Arabs what no other linguistic narrator had narrated. He paid great attention to the material in his dictionary, producing rare linguistic citations. The morphological material in Al-Jamhara constitutes a space that makes research in it a motivating factor, inspiring researchers to delve into its depths and explore the depths of its secrets. The research dealt with morphological forms that were transmitted by semantic threads linked by a single meaning in the collection, transmitted by Ibn Duraid from linguistic scholars at times and from Arabs directly at other times. The research was divided into an introduction and four demands. The introduction detailed the statement on the term “tawārid” and its difference from “tārādif.” Then it turned to explaining something about Ibn Duraid and his scientific and personal biography, then explaining his method in presenting… The common forms, as for the four demands, each demand included a special type of common forms, some of which I analyzed morphologically and semantically. To understand the concept of recurrence that Ibn Duraid meant in his book, Al-Jamhara, the texts of the materials extracted from the dictionary were treated with punctuation, vocalization, graduation, and documentation in a list of the glossary of tables for each topic arranged alphabetically. The research was concluded with a list of the most prominent sources and references that the research relied on to complete it

The imperative construction methods of Al-Sabuni: Safwat Al-Tafasir as a model

فادية خالد — 2025-12-02

This research aims to introduce Al-Sabuni, his scholarly works, and his approach to his interpretation, "The Elite of Interpretations," one of his most famous works. Al-Sabuni demonstrated the diversity of the rhetorical styles he employed, including the following: interrogative, wishful, vocative, imperative, and others, which he employed to serve and clarify the meaning of the Qur'an. He also demonstrated his ability to use these styles in appropriate contexts, helping to convey meanings in a simple and accessible manner without compromising the original meaning of the text. Among the most important findings of the research are the following:

1. Al-Sabuni combined in his interpretation the sciences of language, including grammar, rhetoric, and literature. It can be classified within the linguistic rhetorical approach in interpretation. 2- Al-Sabuni demonstrated the value of the rhetorical devices in the Holy Quran through his beneficial interpretation. May God reward him.

3- Al-Sabuni's interpretation is distinguished by its precise expressions and brevity, combined with its comprehensive vocabulary and comprehensive meanings. Therefore, this interpretation has gained the admiration of many scholars and students of knowledge, facilitating their interpretation of the Holy Quran and the meanings of its words in a clear and easy manner
