IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, MOST BENEFICENT, MOST MERCIFUL
Preface
All praise be to Allah, and may peace and blessings of
Allah be upon His Prophet, Muhammad. Allah says very
explicitly in His Book;
(Here is) a Book which We have sent down unto
you, full of blessings that they may ponder over
its signs, and that men of understanding may
receive admonition. " [38:29]
If we don't understand the Book, how can we ponder on
its verses! The Prophet of Allah, Muhammad ($). said,
The best among you are those who have learnt the
Qur'an and teach it (to others)" [Sahih Bukhārī].
This booklet is prepared to give at least some help in
fulfilling the abovementioned objectives. Please keep the
following points in mind (in addition to those listed on the
back cover) while studying this booklet:
1.
When there are more than one distinctly different
meanings of a word, a semicolon is placed between
[vii]

the two meanings. For similar meanings, a comma
is placed between the meanings. For example: (eye;
.(عَلَى and (above, up (عَين spring
2.
If the last letter of a word given in this booklet does
not have a vowel sign ("
), it indicates that
any vowel sign can come on it depending upon the
context in which that word is used. If JI occurs
before the word, then Tanwin (" ) is not us
3.
At the bottom left of the page, total is provided for
the number of times the words of that page have
occurred in the Qur'an. The bottom right shows the
percent of the total Qur'anic words that you have
learnt so far, if you have memorized the meanings
the words till that page.
4.
In almost every case, the words are arranged
alphabetically to make the search easy.
5.
The word forms related to dual number and feminine
gender are used sparingly in the Holy Qur'an.
Therefore, these forms may be given less emphasis
in the beginning stages.
6.
معروف For almost every verb type, samples of the
forms (active voice) are provided in the first line
[viii]

those of the J forms (passive voice) in the last.
7.
Just like in any language, some verbs and nouns of
action are always followed by a preposition. For
.آمَنَ ب :example, believe in
However, in some cases, a change in preposition may
change the meanings too, for example, get; get in; get at; get
by, get off, get on, etc. A list of some important verbs along
with changing prepositions is provided on page no. 34.
