Sharh Bina’ al-Af’al (شرح بناء الأفعال), published by the prestigious Dar al-Diya (Kuwait), is an exceptional contemporary commentary on one of the most fundamental classical texts in Arabic morphology (Sarf): Bina’ al-Af’al (The Structure of Verbs). This highly regarded work is authored by the expert grammarian and teacher, Sheikh Ali bin Hani al-'Aqrabawi, who is widely respected for his ability to simplify complex classical sciences for modern students. Known for his pedagogical mastery, Sheikh Ali does not merely gloss over the rules of word conjugation; he systematically breaks down the 35 morphological forms (abwab), their meanings, and their practical applications in understanding the Noble Quran and the speech of the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم. Al-'Aqrabawi’s commentary stands out for its clarity, educational structure, and abundant examples, making it an indispensable starting point for students of Arabic grammar and Islamic sciences.
