Arabic is one of the great languages of the world. With its obvious regional varations, it is spoken by the inhabitants of a vast region in Western Asia and Northern Africa. Besides, being the language of Islamic religion and culture, it is cultivated, with great veneration, by the Muslims all over the world. During the glorious days of Baghdad Caliphate, Arabic became the vehicle of science, philosophy, and history. Its literature is highly cultivated and developed and covers almost all branches of human knowledge. Arabic bridged the gulf between the East and the West during the medieval times. The Classical from of the Arabic language is by no means dead or obsolete. A living language with tremendous vitality as it is, the Arabic language has wonderfully retained its basic character, with least change, since the pre-Islamic days to the present time. The native and naturalized Arabs made great contributors to the study of their language, both in grammar and lexicography. In conformity with he Prophet's injunctions, " Seek is better to turn to the Arab grammarians for a thorough study of the Arabic grammar. The present work is the most comprehensive grammar ever written, of the classical Arabic language. The work is not simply a reconstructed descriptive grammar by a European specialist, but is a faithful exposition of the best grammatical works in Arabic by native authorities. All the unique features of Arabic have been scientifically and systematically analysed with examples drawn from classical authors. Each of the three main features of the language, viz. the nouns, the verbs and the particles have been discussed in all possible details in lengthy chapters running into hundred of pages.
