Deepening Quran Understanding: Tools for Students of Knowledge and Arabic Learners

Deepen your understanding of the Quran through our comprehensive Arabic analysis tools. 

Whether you’re a beginner in Arabic or an advanced student of knowledge, our Quran app offers tools that make learning Arabic easier and more meaningful. 

Let’s look at how features like e3rab (morphology), gharib (uncommon Arabic word meanings), word root, lemma, grammar details, verb forms, word occurrences can help you.

E3rab (Morphology)

E3rab explains the grammatical structure of each word in the Quran. It helps you:

  • Understand how words fit into an ayah
  • See how grammar changes the meaning of ayahs
  • Improve your knowledge of Quranic Arabic grammar for deeper studies

For example, when you read Surah Al-Fatiha, you’ll see why “الحمد” and “لله” are written this way and how they connect.

To study E3rab, go to Settings > Tafsirs. You can download the E3rab by Qasim Hamidan Da’s from the list and start studying.

Gharib (Uncommon Arabic Word Meanings)

The Quran has words that are not often used in modern Arabic. The Gharib tool helps you:

  • Learn the meanings of uncommon words
  • Understand their context in Quranic ayahs
  • Build your vocabulary for classical and modern Arabic

You can download Gharib from the Tafsirs list. Currently, we have 2 Arabic word meanings.

Word Lemma and Root

Roots and lemmas are key to understanding Arabic. Our app highlights:

  • Lemma: See the base form of words to understand patterns and variations
  • Roots: Learn the core meaning of words by studying their roots

Most Arabic words come from three or four letter roots. This helps you see how words are connected, learn word families faster and spot patterns across the Quran.

For example, the words “book” (كتاب), “library” (مكتبة), and “writer” (كاتب) all come from ك-ت-ب. Once you know this, you’ll start seeing these patterns everywhere!

You can easily see the word lemma and root by tapping on a word in the app.

Word occurrences in various forms and Quran Dictionary

Tracking how words appear in different forms in different places helps you:

  • Find every instance of a word in the Quran and track word frequencies
  • Remember words better by recognizing patterns
  • Study how the same word is used in different contexts
  • Build deeper understanding through cross-referencing
  • Appreciate the beauty and consistency of the Quran

For example, the root ك-ت-ب was found 319 times in 7 derived forms (lemma) across the Quran. While one of the 7 lemmas كاتب was found 6 times.

After tapping on a word, tap on “Click for more” to see the word occurrences.

Our Quran dictionary organizes words by their root letters. You can browse the words by Arabic alphabet and roots to see all the derivatives for each root. Access the dictionary by clicking on menu drawer > dictionary.
