Buy A Thesaurus of Assumed Synonyms in Arabic

A Thesaurus of Assumed Synonyms in Arabic by Abu Hilal al-Askari is an English reference work published by Darussalam Publishers that presents a classical lexical study of Arabic vocabulary, focusing on the subtle relationships between words that are assumed to be synonyms and explaining their distinct meanings and proper usage. It is adapted from the classical work Al-Furuq fi al-Lughah, a seminal treatise on the differences (furuq) between similar Arabic terms, so readers can understand why seemingly equivalent words have unique semantic shades and contexts, supported by examples drawn from the Qur’an, Hadith, and Islamic jurisprudence. This book is valuable for advanced Arabic learners, linguists, translators, scholars of Islamic sciences, and researchers who require precise understanding of Arabic lexical nuance and usage.
