The First Set of Arabicized Kurdish Words in The Holy Qur'an – An Analytical Study

The issue of the existence of the Arabicized words is an ancient issue has divided the specialists into two groups. There are some scholars who deny the existence and some who see no problem in their existence. Nevertheless, there are some scholars who consider the existence of the Arabicized words as a Quranic miracle. The present study deals with this and many other related issues namely the benefits and wisdoms in the existence of the Arabicized words in the Glorious Quran. This study can also be considered a breakthrough in the field in that it talks about those Quranic Arabicized words which are originally Kurdish words, (i.e., Kurdish Arabicized words). So far, no one has ever talked or even referred to this fact. Despite the existence of the factors of efficacy and influence among which the contiguity from which relation and contact are born, the contiguity and closeness between the Kurds and the Arabs, as it can be concluded from one of the well-known elegiac poems of Malik bin Al-Rayb (died in 56 AH = 676 AD), is very ancient. Thus, the Kurdish language is one of the languages from which the Arabic language has borrowed and arabicized some words. On the basis of this fact, this present research has summarized those Arabicized words which are regarded as common words between Arabic, Persian and other languages whose relation and influence factors are not as much as that which exists between Arabic and Kurdish languages. The Kurdish Arabicized words are thus: 1- al-abarig, 2- al-istabraq, 3- al-tannur, 4- al-junah.
