Classical Arabic is the best language to ever exist

[Soul Kaizer]

Let me leave it at one point, the Quran was in Arabic, Allah had the choice to send it in any language, this book, is going to be not for the Arabs, not for Jews, not for one race, its going to be for every person in existence during and after its revelation, every nation every language every tribe, Allah decided for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasalam to grow up and live in Arabia and speak the language and grow up in the best city in the world and give him the best book in the world and give him the most eloquent speech to teach people the Quran, of which was preserved and memorised with ease to the point we have an entire science around preserving the speech of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasalm

This entire deen is for the entire ummah, whether you are chinese indian boznian kurdish turkish mongolian egyptian morrocan spanish native american Ghanaian french korean somali
every single on of these have to learn Arabic and recite it in every prayer and learn the entire religion, the message of Islam Quran and sunnah is packed in Arabic, and they have to translate it from Arabic and understand Arabic, every nation on this entire earth.

The Jews got their books in hebrew just for them, other nations would have gotten books and messengers in the language which Allah deemed the best language to send it down for them.

But this book is for the entirety of humanity, its not restricted to the language speakers.

You have millions of huffaz who don't even speak arabic who are below the age of 15 reciting the greatest book on earth which a perfect recitation.

For me that is enough evidence Arabic is the best language.

If there was a better one Allah would have sent it in another language

If the Quran was revealed in Chinese you would be making the same argument imo.

“Allah decided for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasalam to grow up and live in Arabia and speak the language and grow up in the best city in the world”

9:97
ٱلْأَعْرَابُ أَشَدُّ كُفْرًۭا وَنِفَاقًۭا وَأَجْدَرُ أَلَّا يَعْلَمُوا۟ حُدُودَ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِۦ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌۭ ٩٧

The nomadic Arabs ˹around Medina˺ are far worse in disbelief and hypocrisy, and less likely to know the laws revealed by Allah to His Messenger. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

Yes I would. Whats you point, Allah knows the best language, not me, Whatever Allah decides to reveal the best last final book in is clearly the best language. Also its mandarin

That verse is talking about the Bedouins who didn't live in city so they are more ignorant and have worse manners, its talking abotut he virtue of living in the city of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasalam as you would know the hudood and law of Allah better and less likely to be kaafir and disobedient Muslim.

My whole argument is how do you know Allah chose to reveal it in Arabic because it was the best language. I don’t want your opinion i need a source of authoritative information which says Allah revealed the Quran in Arabic because it is the best preferably from Quran or Hadith.

If you cant provide that then its just personal opinion.

From what I have read from scholars is that is the best language because Allah decided to send the final book in it which is the best book on earth. But you could say they have biases.
For right now I don't know if there is any explicit evidence in the Quran or sunnah that it is the best language, all I have seen is argument that the fact that Allah sent it in Arabic to the whole ummah it must be the best language, and if there was a better language to convey to mankind, then it would be a different language. its common sense.

if there was a better language to send it in, why wouldn't Allah send the Quran in that language, unless there is an insinuation that Allah doesn't want to be clear to us and convey what he wants in the best way possible

Or maybe you think too much into these things? Sometimes "critical thinking" turns into making up stories in your head. Had Chinese been a better language for the message then theoretically Allah could've make the prophets tribe speak Chinese somehow. You see its all bs.

We don't have nay explicit reason why he chose Arabic other than the obvious fact that it's the only language the prophet spoke. Arabic was able to convey the message of the Quran so perfectly not because of the Arabic language but because Allah willed it. He sent his message down into the language the prophet could comprehend and it was a great piece of literature cause its author is literally god himself. Is Allah decided to make an English man his prophet then he would've sent down a holy book in English and it would've been considered the greatest piece of literature as well. It would be different because it's germanic but it would convey what God wants through the English language perfectly.

@Nilotic

Have you ever heard anything simmilar tothis?

That is indeed beautiful sounding; Arabic is a very poetic language.

Are you an Arabic speaker?

 

[KillStreakIsCool]

Do you think Allah chose the language because it was great or because it was apart of the plan he bad in mind.

There is a hadith that states there are thousands of messengers who were sent to every nation. That means islam came in many different languages. I dont think 1 is superior to another.

He/She doesn't care about that fact. Too busy with bigotry. They are hypocrites, the type whose Iman never goes past their neck.

I didn't realize the idiots in the other thread, the insecure inbreds opened this one after they couldn't answer simple straight questions about Islam. Their religion is their ethnicity and they worship themselves.

Its quran, old classical Arabic is very simmilar to Somali, especially the Quran. I can't understand dialect Arabic, but I'm studying quranic Arabic.

 

[KillStreakIsCool]

You are a muslim, therefore you love islam. Since the most important scripture in islam is in Arabic, it's natural for you to like/value/love arabic. However, this love doesn't really make it the "greatest". I doubt that the average muslim has seen enough languages/knows enough about linguistics to conclude that classical arabic is the most "eloquent".

This is a message that doesn't sit well with the idiots on this thread bent backwards about Arab Ethnocentrism.

 

[noname_]

Sure everyone should know their own language but if you ask me should Arabic, English, Spanish or Mandarin should be the the universal language in the Muslim world, it’s 100% going to be Arabic.

Imagine travelling to another Muslim country and there is communication barriers between you and the locals. Now if Arabic becomes the main language next to your native one, that will eliminate the problem and everyone will understand each other. On top of that, deen, employment and the ability to settle in. See how beautiful is that?

 

[KillStreakIsCool]

Some person in this forum is so stupid as to assert that just because our entire religion, the best religion to ever exist on this earth, with the best book from God, is in Arabic, does not make Arabic the best language.

This is what happens, when you go so deep in your inferiority complex, you cannot accept that your own religions language is better than your own language.

Every Muslim with a little bit of knowledge knows classical Arabic is the best most eloquent beautiful language, and it was used to give us the best most beautiful greatest book to ever exist, to even say that Arabic isn't the best language shows how misguided your logic is.

The misguidance is the promotion of racism among Muslims and asking them to abandon their God given language in favor of Another. Can you show where in the Quran Allah tells mankind they should trade their language with Arabic because it is superior or with Another? It is the opposite and Allah points out that the differences in human languages and skin color are a sign of his existence. Malcuun baad tahay meesha ka baafinaaya fitnah among muslims.

 

[KillStreakIsCool]

Bisinka. The obsession with all things Arab on this site reached a crisis point. Every day I see 10-15 news threads of 'Arabs this, Arabs that'. If only there was a way to mute that word here. Sick of it.

That is what hypocrites do among Muslim community, introduce bigotry and division then push it as religion.

I agree to disagree, I have my view you have yours.

your argument is that the Prophet salllalahu alayhi wasalam spoke Arabic so Allah decided to send the Quran in Arabic ignores that fact Allah decrees everything according to his wisdom and decides the best most eloquent way to convey the religion, if chinese was better, Allah would have made chinese the language of the last book, your argument is "no, how would Allah magically make the Propeht sallallahu alayhi wasalam speak Chinese just because chinese is a better language that doesn't make any sense since he grew up in Arabia"
the whole reason I believe this is wrong is because Allah decrees everything, The lineage of the Prophet the time and place everything was planned out by Allah perfectly, if mandarin was somehow a better language Allah would have made the language spoken in Arabia mandarin and the Quran in Arabic

you cannot seriously believe that the Quran could have been made in a different language and be just as good as the Quran we have


English is a trash language and I do not believe Allah would ever send a book in English because the language does not fit for Gods words, there is a reason the books we know that Allah sent down were Semitic languages, they were chosen specifically for that purpose

 

[cooli3o]

trade their language with Arabic because it is superior or with Another?

I have never said that ever in any of my posts. you guys are strawmanning me now

saying classical Arabic the language every race of Muslim has to know about is the best language is now somehow causing bigotry and divide amongst Muslims.

That is what you are asking, people abandon their God given language and challenge their Islam when they rightfully object. Where Allah says linguistic differences and skin tone are his ingenuity and a sign of his, you push only Arabic matters and anyone whoever opposes that bigoted opinion is not knowledgeable or is less of a Muslim. Dude, we are Muslims for our own benefit not that we give a f*ck about Arabs.

I will stand in front of Allah as Somali Muslim. That is the only fact I care about.
