The dialectal effect on the morphological orientation of Qur’anic readings In the book “Parsing of Queer Readings” By Abu Al-Baqa Al-Akbari (d. 616 AH)

Abstract

This is a research devoted to explaining the dialectal impact on the morphological guidance of Qur’anic readings in the book “Parsing the Irregular Readings” by Abu Al-Baqa Al-Akbari. It is no secret to anyone that the Qur’anic readings have a clear impact on linguistic and grammatical studies, with their various types, both frequent and irregular, as they are the original and important source for the study of Arabic dialects. It was prevalent in the Arabian Peninsula, as there was a close connection between the readings and the dialects of the Arabs, and the interest of contemporary scholars in studying dialects and their connection to the readings was clear, and this study we discussed is one of those studies that were concerned with readings and dialects. Qur’anic reading is at an important level of the language, which is the morphological level, which Al-Akbari paid clear attention to in his book. The other matter is that this research specializes in studying the third book on irregular readings after the book of Ibn Khalawayh (d. 370 AH) (A summary of irregular readings) and the book ( Al-Muhtasib) by Ibn Jinni (d. 392 AH). This book that we have deals with the parsing of all irregular readings, and it is a great scholarly wealth in the field of Qur’anic readings, in addition to the high scholarly status Al-Akbari is known for. He is a prominent imam among the imams of language, grammar, interpretation, and readings, and the author of guidance. He is brilliant with regard to the readings in this book and in his other books, as we will see in the study, God Almighty willing.
