Description :



If knowledge of the Arabic language is one of the doorways to understanding the teachings of Islam, then this book is one of its keys. It presents the basic rules of reading, writing and understanding the Arabic language in an uncomplicated way.

 
This book dispenses entirely with rules of grammar, unless they are useful and equate with a rule of reading and writing. As a matter of fact, people never care for the rules of grammar when they deal with each other in their daily common affairs. But grammar surely is very useful and essential for acquiring the treasures of knowledge preserved in books.


This is an excellent Arabic text book for beginners, both young and old.
