Exegeses of Iz Al- Deen Bin Jama’h on Declension Rules and Structure in Arabic

Abstract

“Al- Qawa’ed Al- Sughra” (The Concise Grammar) by Ibn Hisham Al-

Ansari is one of the books which summarizes Arabic Syntax. Iz Al- Deen bin

Jama’h Al- Kanani was interested in this book on which he wrote several

exegeses. The researcher found two of them. Hence, the study is about one

of them: Hada’iq ‘Al- ‘Araab fi Shareh Qawa’ed Al- I’raab” (Gardens of

Arabs in Explaining the Rules of Grammar) . The exegesis includes various

reference books on syntax, linguistics, interpretation and literature – a fact

which encouraged the editor to study the methodology of the exegesis to

explain his viewpoints on the syntactic issues and to interpret some linguistic

and syntactic phenomena appropriately.
