This book is for people who need a refresher (revision of basics). It may be helpful to those beginning to learn Arabic Grammar and advanced tips and unique points in classical Arabic, solely for understanding the Qur'an, the book of Guidance for humanity. It is assumed that you have some idea about Arabic Grammar.

Al-Qur'an is a book of knowledge and wisdom. This is where our Creator is telling us how to live our lives. We recite parts of it in our prayers. Understanding what we are reciting in our salah is critical. We need to learn enough Arabic to understand what our Creator is saying and to practice it. We don't have to be Arabic or Qur'an scholars, but we must know enough to appreciate our only connection with Allah SWT.

Messenger of Allah, Peace be upon him, said to learn Arabic for three reasons:
It is my language.
It is the language of the Qur'an.
It is the language of the people of Jannah.
Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala chose Arabic for His final Revelation.

Imam Shaafa'i Razi Allahu anhu said that knowledge is essential, not what you memorize.

Learning Arabic will also help you understand the traditions (ahadith), the second most crucial part of our faith after the Qur'an. Messenger of Allah (alaihi assalatu wassalam) also said: I am leaving you two things. You will never be defeated and destroyed if you hold on to them. These are the Qur'an and my traditions.
