Dictionary of the Holy Qur'an

About this book

Abdul Mannan Omar's Dictionary of the Holy Qur'an is an Arabic–English dictionary dedicated entirely to the vocabulary of the Quran.

Words are arranged by their Arabic root, as in classical dictionaries. For each root the author gives its basic meaning and then the meanings of the derived forms as they are used in the Quran, with references to the verses where they appear. Notes draw on classical Arabic lexicons.

It is an invaluable tool for students of Arabic and tafsir who want to understand the Quran's words directly rather than through translations alone.
