Arabic...
"Arabic, spoken by an estimated 90 million people
from North
Africa to Iraq, is known by many Musl_ims throughout the world
as the language of the Kor_n. Originally
restricted to the
Arabian Peninsula, where they were
known in Biblical times,
the Arabians began their conquests in the 7th and 8th
centuries,
inspired by Isl_m, the religion proclaimed during the
early 7th
century by...Mohamm_d. Also called Saracens or
Moors, the Arabs conquered an area extending from
Spain to
India and Central Asia, evangelizing by invasion and spreading a
highly developed Isl_mic culture. Arabic
became the language of
the Musl_m Empire, except in
Turkey,
Persia, and India. During
the Middle Ages Musl_m arts, literature, and science
flourished,
and it was contact with Isl_mic learning that helped
to bring
about the revival of Western creativity and curiosity known as
the Renaissance.
Arabic is a Semitic language, related to the Akkadian (Assyrian
and Babylonian), Canaanite (Phoenician, Moabite, Ugaritic,
and Ancient Hebrew), and Aramaic languages. The language
spoken by the people of Arabia is mentioned in Akkadian
tablets of the early part of the first millennium B.C., but
classical
or literary Arabic of today (Fasih) is the Mecca dialect
common
at the time of Moh_mm_d. This ‘Kor_n Arabic’ has become
standard throughout the Arabic world, although it is not a
spoken language, except for formal speeches and pronounce-
ments. Colloquial Arabic differs
considerably from country to
country. In some nations urban and rural distinctions also exist.
The Arabic script is written from right to left. It contains 28
consonantal letters, most of which have several different forms.
Vowels are indicated by marks either above or below the
printed line, but are seldom used except in religious literature.
The Arabic writing developed from that of the Nabateans. This
script, in turn, seems to be a development of Aramaic script.
Christianity was introduced to Arabia as early as the 4th century,
and it can logically be argued that an Arabic translation of the
Scriptures might have been made for these early Christians.
However, most scholars maintain that there was probably no
Arabic translation of the Bible until after the 7th century, when
the success of the Kor_n had standardized Arabic and
elevated it
to the level of a literary language. In any case Arabic Biblical
manuscripts dating from the 9th and 10th centuries are numerous.
Translated from
Hebrew,
Greek,
Coptic,
Syriac,
Latin, and even
Samaritan,
there are extensive collections of Arabic manuscripts
at the Monastery of St. Catherine at Mt. Sinai, the
Patriarchal
Library of Cairo, the Vatican Library, Leiden, Paris,
London,
and Cambridge. Among the most important of these are:
The 10th-century version of Saadia Gaon,
published in Paris and
London Polyglots (Pentateuch only) and a millennial anniversary
printing, edited by H. Derenbourg, 1893-1900, Paris."--1000 Tongues,

"A version of the
New Testament in modern Arabic was printed at Calcutta in 1816, designed
principally for the learned and fastidious Moh_mm_d_ns in all parts of the world, who, it was
thought,
might have been repelled from the study of Scripture by the antiquated style
of former versions.
This translation was made by a learned Arabian scholar, the unhappy Sabat,
under the supervision of
the Rev. S. M. Thomason. The lamented Henry Martyn was deeply
interested in Sabat, and the
production of his version; but he did not live to see it finished.
A second edition was printed in
London in 1825, under the care of Professor Lee; and a third in Calcutta, by
the Rev. S. M. Thomason,
in the following year: but the version has not been found generally
acceptable in countries where the
language is vernacular, and it has not since been reprinted."--1860

"The need of an improved translation
of the Scriptures in Arabic, so long and so deeply felt by the
Eastern Churches, has at length been met by the Christian Knowledge
Society. Their agent, the
Rev. C. Schlienz, relates, as the result of his personal observations in the
East, "...." In 1839 the prepara-
tion of a new Arabic version was commenced, by the direction of the Society,
under the superintendence
of the Rev. C. Schlienz. The first draft of the whole translation was
originally made by Mr. Fares
(admitted to be one of the best native Arabic scholars of the day), from the
authorised English
Bible, under
the directions of the late Professor Lee, by whom it was afterwards, to a
very considerable extent, cor-
rected by the original Hebrew. The printing was commenced in London
under the superintendence of
Professor Lee, assisted by Mr. Fares, the proof-sheets passing also in
succession through the hands of a
sub-committee of revision, consisting of able Biblical and Oriental scholars.
Upon the death of Dr. Lee,
in 1852, his place as principal editor was filled by Professor Jarrett, who,
with the continued aid,
throughout, of Mr. Fares, carried the work through the press to its
completion in 1856. Thus an
uniform version of the Holy Scriptures, in pure Arabic, according to the
Hebrew and
Greek originals,
has at length been completed by God's blessing." --1860 S.
