ARABIC DISCOVERY: The Origin of ALL languages | Arabic101

In this lesson, I try to summarize Dr. Ismail's research on classic Arabic being the origin of languages. I mainly used her book to prepare the contents of this lesson.

I also used other sources in preparing this lesson:
Book: اللغة العربية أصل اللغات العالمية
Book: معجم الفردوس

PLEASE share the video as much as you can to spread the word and share the ajer in shaa Allah ...

"Amir Al Bahr", became "Amiral" in French and " Admiral" In English

İn Azerbaijan language (azerbaijanian turkish) 60 % may be even more are Arabic . There for it is easy to remember new words for us . Elhamdullilah

This is a bit over the top in my opinion (im arab by the way), the reason of similarities could be that in the golden age of islam baghdad (the capital of iraq) was the place for science and everything was written in arabic back then so the students in every part in the world used to travel to baghdad and translate books to transfer the knowledge to their country, and over time they got affected by some vocabularies (not everything could be tranlated) and it develobed overtime to become actual words

Similar to whats happening now in the arab world we use lots of english words in our daily speech because everything now in English and anyone who wants to get education he must know english and some of these words actually made it to the formal language like "Computer" = "كومبيوتر" (i know this isn't a good example)

[anderslvolljohansen]

"Tall" didn't mean tall until about 500 years ago.

Its similarity to an Arabic word is probably coincidental. Though one can speculate whether the change in meaning was influenced by Arabic.

"The sense of "being of more than average height (and slim in proportion to height)" probably evolved out of earlier meanings "brave, valiant, seemly, proper" (c. 1400), "attractive, handsome" (late 14c.), also "large, big" (mid-14c.), as sometimes in Modern English, colloquially.
The sense evolution is "remarkable, " says OED (1989), but it notes that adjectives applied to persons can wander far in meaning (such as pretty,  buxom, German klein "small, little, " which in Middle High German meant the same as its English cognate clean (adj.))."

Brother, with all due respect, this video is misleading. You can believe that Arabic is a wonderful language, and acknowledge the ways in which it has heavily contributed to the vocabularies of many languages, while still being scientific about this.
Firstly, every language changes. Every single one. Arabic included. Arabic as it was 1400 years ago itself was the product of millenia of changes, as is every other language. Contribution of loaned vocabulary words IS NOT the same as being the "source language" of another tongue. That's why the Persian language, for all its Arabic loans, is incomprehensible to an Arab who doesnt speak Persian. Language is more than vocabulary. It's a system that is made up of syntax rules, morphology/grammar, and phonology. Vocabulary is one portion of the system.
Also, this completely goes out of the window when you compare Arabic to any Sinitic language, any Andean language - basically, anywhere not in contact with Muslims or Romans.

سبحان الله ، اللغة العربية هي اغنى واثرى لغة في العالم ، في الماضي وفي الحاضر. سبحان من اختارها لكي تكون لغة الوحي والرسالة الاخيرة لبني آدم

[liamheins]

Arabic has had a huge influence on the vocabulary of many languages around the world, but this video is highly misleading in promoting a pseudoscientific hypothesis on the origin of Indo-European languages that is not based in sound historical linguistic methodology.

I encourage anyone watching to read up on the vast world of historical linguistics and the comparative methods that allow us to reconstruct the relationships between languages. Nationalist and religious movements have a long history of promoting their favored language as the origin of all others, but you are missing out on the fruits of an incredibly interesting field if you elevate these "theories" to the same level of centuries of critical, evidence-based investigation.

The truth is so much more interesting, I promise.

[tatsuyakuragi]

40% of words that are used in my language today are either Arabic or from Arabic root. And not just similarity, they are literally same words. Also, we're only counting ones used in modern days not the whole 14 centuries.

[Dr_Holiday]

I'm not an Arab, but subhanallah arabic is the greatest language in the world, I mean God the almighty picked it for the final revelation.

[MaskedGuyCh]

Subhan Allah. The Arabic language has always been one of the richest, if not the richest language in the world.

[honesty_provides_tranquility]

30% of Urdu is Arabic … it truly elevates the Hindi into a beautiful poetic language

Thank you for mentioning the resources. Please keep us informed about your resources in every video so we learn more from them

[eslamalahmadi]

Arabic was the only way supposed to be the ship able to carry greatness of holly Quran

[frankeinstein]

You are talking specifically about the connection between Arabic and European languages. A lot of Asian, African, Aboriginal and Native American languages have nothing to do with Arabic.

[MixtureGuy]

This video has inaccuracies.

أرجو (I request, I hope) does not mean "rego" (to rule, to guide)
كنس (to hide/to retreat/to sweep) does not mean "cinis" (ashes, embers, ruin, destruction)
نقص (to decrease) does not mean "necesse" (necessary, needed)

Anglo-Saxon
ورى (creation, to kindle) does not mean "wara" (an inhabitant, to care, to guard)
هون (easy) does not mean "hwon" (a few, a little)
ورد (watering hole) does not mean "wyrt" (plant, vegetable, herb)

English
صنح (cymbal, harp) does not mean "song"
هب (thinking, to move suddenly) does not mean "hop"
رج (to shake) does not mean "rock"
...

75% of Latin verb roots and 80% of Anglo-Saxon verbs does not have Arabic origins. Latin and Anglo-Saxon have distinct roots in the Indo-European family, while Arabic belongs to the Afroasiatic family. Arabic has influenced European languages through trade and cultural exchanges, but not to this extent.

The word "سكر" (sugar), cited as an example in the video, originates from Middle Persian (𐭱𐭪𐭥), which, in turn, derives from the Sanskrit word "शर्करा." Like all languages, Arabic has borrowed words from other languages, a process that is a natural part of linguistic evolution. Arabic isn't unique in this regard, as linguistic exchange is a universal phenomenon.

The claim that words stem from Arabic instead of Latin due to the greater number of Arabic roots is logically flawed. A language having more roots doesn't imply that specific words in another language originated from it. Language development is complex, involving various influences that cannot be explained by sheer volume alone; historical interactions, trade, and cultural exchanges play a crucial role.

As Muslims, we need to move beyond the idea of Arabic or Arab superiority. Arabic is a language like any other, not inherently more divine. If Allah willed, the Quran could have been revealed in any language, just as easily. To claim that Arabic was uniquely necessary for this purpose undermines Allah's boundless power.

In Malay Arabic script we used to maintain some of the Arabic spelling ❤

[Luckyland]

Indonesian has a lot of loan words from Arabic. Even the names of the days of the week

[anderslvolljohansen]

"[Proto-Indo-European] is hypothesized to have been spoken as a single language from approximately 4500 BCE to 2500 BCE [...] though estimates vary by more than a thousand years.
Wikipedia

Languages evolve so fast that no language spoken at the time of classical Arabic could have remained similar enough to be considered the same language since proto-Indo-European began to be spoken.

[eslamwaleed]

Great effort! Hope you talk more about the origins of languages and the 10 Qira'at.

[nureke-dpnw]

Although Arabic is a very beautiful and rich ancient language, especially Quranic Arabic, which has influenced many other languages, it couldn't be the case that all other languages originated somehow from Arabic, because the Arabic language can't be older than the prophet Ibrahim or Ismail pbut and from modern historical science we know that these prophets lived approximately 5000 - 5500 years ago. Moreover, even when the prophet Ibrahim left Mesopotamia (Iraq) for Palestine, he spoke the language of his fathers, the Mesopotamian language, which is different from ancient Arabic of the times of prophet Muhammad pbuh or ancient Hebrew of the prophets Musah and Harun pbut.
