The Opinions Attributed to Al-Akhfash Al-Awsat (d. 215 AH) Regarding Particles of Governance (Huroof Al-Jarr) through the Commentaries of Abu Hayyan (d. 745 AH) and Al-Muradi (d. 749 AH) on Ibn Malik's Alfiyyah (d. 672 AH): A Collection and Study

Abstract

This research paper, titled "The Opinions Attributed to Al-Akhfash Al-Awsat (d. 215 AH) Regarding Particles of Governance (Huroof Al-Jarr) through the Commentaries of Abu Hayyan (d. 745 AH) and Al-Muradi (d. 749 AH) on Ibn Malik's Alfiyyah (d. 672 AH): A Collection and Study" , employs a descriptive analytical methodology to document and study the grammatical views concerning specific particles of governance (Huroof Al-Jarr) that Abu Hayyan in Manhaj Al-Salik and Al-Muradi in Tawdhih Al-Maqasid attributed to Al-Akhfash Al-Awsat. The paper focuses on four main issues concerning the particles: min, Al-Bāʼ, Al-Kāf , and mudh and mundhu. The aim is to present Al-Akhfash's opinions, verify their attribution, and cite the evidence (Quranic verses and poetry) used by the commentators, while also contrasting them with the opinions of dissenting and supporting scholars. The researcher concludes that the views attributed to Al-Akhfash often hold validity, such as his allowance for the augmentation of min in both obligatorily and non-obligatorily augmented contexts.
