Transmission Impact On The Arab's Language And Thought - Ancient And Modern

The language is the most important component of civilizational existence and the distinguishing feature of nations. We can not deny the danger of language in shaping the identity of a people and in strengthening the bonds of their belonging to the nation.

Language is a verbal and written used to form thoughts, and its development is dependent on the development of the mind, as it is impossible for thought to develop unless it is accompanied by a linguistic development that accommodates everything new. And the knowledge development depends on cultural communication, as no thought originated and progressed in the ranks of advancement away from translation and acculturation, whether literary, scientific or philosophical.

And since language is a human product, it interacts with its surroundings by mutual influence, and its death or life depends on the death or life of its people.

Translation is the factor that extends the bridges of knowledge between the product of a person and the peculiarities of the self, as it makes itself the first means of civilized interaction, as it was and still is, along with other means, the most prominent channel for the transfer of knowledge between nations. It is the door through which the foreigner enters the local culture, and it has a great impact on directing its thought and developing its language.

This book shows the impact of transmission and translation on the Arabic language and its thought in the past, as well as the influence of the Arabic language and thought on translation in recent times, revealing how the translation – past and present – was introduced to Arabs in new worlds of knowledge that they did not have before, and opened the doors of scientific knowledge for them, and how it moved them beyond the limits of their cognitive horizon by highlighting how the translation worked to direct the intellectual practice of the Arabs, and changing the direction of their thinking in the past and present time.

We then tried to demonstrate the impact of translation on Arabic language and how it led to the expansion of its horizon, as well as how the impact of translation on the Arabic thought system bequeathed a development a change in its words. All these details and ramifications, we have worked to simplify it and expand it in this research.

Inner Talk

The texts of this book were collected through thoughts scattered over the course of days, which carried in their meanings a solution and a cure for every matter that afflicted people, and whose meaning and conclusion were not yet well-understood.

These thoughts were recorded on the piece of paper closest to the writer, such as a purchase invoice or a text conversation, in the hope that the writer would not forget them because of their importance.

When they were collected, the writer found that they carry a clear message for our contemporary way of life, justify some of the difficulties, and contradict some of the harmful, unhelpfully inherited traditions.

Similar Spirits In A Different World

Distracted, broken and stuck… Forgotten, left and wronged. Dull, dark, suffocated and muffled… Scattered, worried… Happy but deprived. Rich of humanity and poor in feelings… Alive laughter and dead with a sense of burial. Close but far, happy but gloomy, dead and promises revive me… I leave but I come back.. I cry without tears as tears swore to not return… I now know what the price of life is. I know the old and the new, the expensive and the cheap. I know how hearts are. Do others feel the taste of fear and broken promises?! Do you feel that your soul is lost like the rainy season watering roses?! Do you feel that your body holds a thousand souls and that each soul has feelings?! Did you feel paranoid? I am your lost spirit, that’s strange! You didn't recognize me closer? Do I not deserve to be in your hands? I am bored being alone.

Captivated By A Wonder

About my first book

This book is a product of raw emotion and honest reflection. Every event portrayed in it is based on true experiences and real-life situations. Throughout the writing process, I refrained from relying on my imagination and instead drew inspiration from the reality I witnessed, heard, and lived through.

With its unfiltered portrayal of everyday life, this book offers a window into the joys and sorrows that define the human experience. The people featured in its pages come from diverse backgrounds, with their own unique customs, religions, and traditions. Yet, despite their differences, their reactions to life’s challenges are universal, a testament to the shared humanity that binds us all.

By offering a glimpse into the lives of others, this book invites readers to broaden their perspectives and deepen their understanding of the world around them. Through its vivid snapshots and poignant moments, it illuminates the commonalities that unite us, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable differences.
