ABOUT THE SET
إعراب القرآن الكريم وبيانه (I'rab al-Qur'an al-Karim wa-Bayanah), authored by the outstanding 20th-century Syrian linguist, poet, and educator Shaykh Muhiyiddin al-Darwish (1903–1982), is widely considered one of the finest and most comprehensive text-critical masterpieces of modern Qur'anic syntax and philology. Published in a highly sought-after nine-volume edition by premier scholarly houses like Dar Ibn Kathir and Dar al-Yamamah, this monumental work is a vital asset for advanced students of Arabic, Islamic jurists, and researchers of classical Arabic rhetoric. The core philosophy of this text centers on unveiling the theological and structural miracles of the Qur'an through precise linguistic parsing—demonstrating that the structural layers of Arabic grammar directly shape, protect, and illuminate the holy text's divine meanings.
Historically, older works of I'rab (grammatical analysis) treated sentences mechanically, stripping them down to cold grammatical definitions like "subject" or "predicate" without showing how the pieces connected. Shaykh Muhiyiddin al-Darwish spent his life synthesizing centuries of traditional heritage into a highly clear, beautiful pedagogical register. He systematically tracks every single verse (Ayah) from Surah al-Fatihah to Surah an-Nas, blending strict morphological derivation (Sarf) and grammatical analysis (Nahw) with magnificent investigations into classical eloquence (Balaghah), semantic shifts (Lughah), and the historical context of revelation (Asbab al-Nuzul).
Structural Scope of the Nine Volumes
The typical printing of this classic library reference separates the text into eight continuous volumes of textual analysis, concluded by a massive analytical index:
| Volume Division | Textual Scope (Surah Trajectory) | Analytical Vector & Focus |
| Volumes I & II | Surah al-Fatihah to Surah al-Ma'idah | Establishes linguistic ground rules; handles complex sentence-level chains (I'rab) within the heavily regulated legislative verses. |
| Volumes III & IV | Surah al-An'am to Surah Yusuf | Meticulous exploration of narrative dialogue patterns, focusing on verbal noun derivations and classical Arabic prose flow. |
| Volumes V, VI & VII | Surah ar-Ra'd to Surah al-Ahzab | Focuses heavily on phonetic transitions, rhythm analysis, and the unique grammatical rules of prophetic storytelling. |
| Volume VIII | Surah Saba to Surah an-Nas | Unpacks the fast-paced, emotionally powerful syntax of the shorter Meccan Surahs, tracking micro-rhymes and semantic emphasis. |
| Volume IX | Comprehensive Scholarly Indices (Al-Faharis) | A massive, specialized index cataloging all verified Qur'anic verses, prophetic traditions (Ahadith), historical figures (A'lam), and lines of pre-Islamic poetry (Asha'ar) quoted across the compilation. |
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Shaykh Muhiyiddin al-Darwish was an elite Syrian poet, leading literary critic, and veteran secondary school professor of classical Arabic literature based in Homs. His lifetime of classroom experience allowed him to write with exceptional pedagogical clarity.
Al-Darwish’s prose style is remarkably clear, elegant, and structured. He avoids the confusing, overly theoretical arguments that often bog down older grammar books, using clear phrasing to make the text accessible to modern minds. The printing layout is beautifully structured for serious study: the core Qur'anic text is displayed in bold typography, with the different analytical layers divided by clean headings on fine cream paper. By ensuring that grammar serves as a direct doorway to tasting the absolute beauty of the divine word, his nine-volume compendium remains an essential textbook across traditional seminary programs (Dars-e-Nizami), university Arabic departments, and Islamic research centers worldwide.
