Many grammar books – both old and new – have dealt with grammatical rules, and this book is a pioneer in its field; for it combines the rules that address grammatical issues – with their vast scope and numerous details – with the meanings of grammar. This is of great benefit to students in general, and to those learning Arabic in particular.

The author relied on primary sources and many contemporary references to combine the old and the new. He also took care to explain the meanings of the verses of the Alfiyya in a concise manner and presented the meanings of most of the poetic examples, adhering to the themes and order of the Alfiyya.

The reader will also find brilliant insights, of diverse origins, which are linguistic gems that the author has scattered in their places; out of love for Arabic, to educate students of knowledge, and to make things easier for researchers.
