Short description/annotation:
This publication provides definitions, summaries and extensive citations of the terminology in the philological commentary on the Qurʾān, by al-Farrāʾ (d. 207/822). This Lexicon provides the first comprehensive study of the Kūfan terminology based on an extant Kūfan source.
Description:
Al-Farrāʾ''s philological commentary, Maʿānī l-Qurʾān, dating from the beginning of the 9th century, is a rich source for Qurʾān readings, Qurʾān codices, Qurʾān commentary, Arabic lexicography and grammar. This commentary is unique, being the only extant extensive work by a grammarian of the Kūfan school.
The Lexicon contains about 3,000 terms and compound terms of grammar, lexicography, commentary, hadith and other Islamic sciences. Each term is presented with an English definition, often followed by an English summary. After the English section, extensive quotations from the original text are adduced in Arabic. Thus, the reader is given easy access to the contexts in which the term occurs.
Review quote:
''What an absolutely valuable resource!''
