Why to learn Arabic?






Analysing our motto

أَصْحَابُ العَرَبِيَّةِ جِنُّ الإِنْسِ، يُبْصِرُونَ مَا لا يُبْصِرُ غَيْرُهُم

أَصْحَابُ: masculine noun, plural, nominative case, determining noun of a construct state. Singular: صاحب. Root: صحب. Meaning: companions, fellows. In construct state this is a common Arabic phrase which expresses something or somebody who accompanies, follows or posesses the determined noun, eg. أصحاب الجنة = The inmates of Paradise.

العَرَبِيَّةِ: definite article + feminine noun, singular, genitive case, determined noun of a construct state. Root: عرب. Meaning: the Arabic (language).

جِنُّ: masculine noun, singular, nominative case, determining noun of a construct state. Root: جنن. Meaning: jinnee.

الإِنْسِ: definite article + masculine noun, singular, genitive case, determined noun of a construct state. Root: ءنس. Meaning: human, people.

يُبْصِرُونَ: imperfect verb, third person plural. Root: بصر. Meaning: they see.

مَا: particle, here: relative pronoun. Meaning: that which.

لا: particle, negative. Meaning: not, don't.

يُبْصِرُ: imperfect verb, third person singular, masculine. Root: بصر. Meaning: see.

غَيْرُهُم: masculine noun, singular, nominative case + third person plural masculine posessive pronoun suffix. Meaning: others than them.

Arab linguists prefer to use their own slightly different grammatical categories those we will discuss later.

Our motto

أَصْحَابُ العَرَبِيَّةِ جِنُّ الإِنْسِ، يُبْصِرُونَ مَا لا يُبْصِرُ غَيْرُهُم
"Those who know Arabic are jinn among humans, they can see what nobody else can." (Imam Shafii)

A formerly hidden world will reveal for those who know Arabic language. The 1400 years old scriptures will tell tales, and their stories will become alive. They will guide that person into an era, when miracles happened, and mankind received a message that shaped the world. This secret however won't appear to anybody. The privilege of its knowledge is only for those who are disposed to spend enough time and attention learning it.
