Towards the Seven Readings Different from the Reading of Hafs from Asim" The Nominative Nouns "

Abstract

This is the title of the research that was prepared, so that (The Nominative Nouns) would be the beginning of a comprehensive study of dozens of readings that include a seven-fold reading, provided that they differ from the reading of Hafs from Asim, known as the "common reading." What we mean here are the nouns that appear in the nominative case in the script of the Qur'an and in the common reading, but were read by the seven reciters, or some of them, in the accusative or genitive cases, with accompanying grammatical conditions, such as addition, tanween, or lack thereof.

The book "The Seven in the Readings" by Ibn Mujahid, who died in 324 AH, was our primary source for classifying the readings and attributing them to their proponents. The arguments for these readings were taken from books of exegesis, Quranic sciences, and a number of grammatical books. The more a reading is subject to disagreement among grammarians, the more it receives explanation and commentary. This work is part of a larger work, some of which has already been prepared, and the remainder is being prepared, God willing. It will cover all parts of speech, including nouns, verbs, and meaningful particles, in all their grammatical cases. We ask God to help us complete it and benefit from it.
