This word is made of two segments: a definite article (ٱلْ) and a noun (حَمْدُ).

The noun (حَمْدُ) is masculine, nominative; root ح م د; lemma حَمْد.

Moon letter (ḥarf qamarī): the lām of al- is pronounced, with sukūn.

ٱ at the start is hamzat al-waṣl: it is sounded only when you begin reading from this word, and skipped when joined to the word before.

Nahw Lab

See the sentence, not just the words

Al-Fātiḥa 1:2 is a nominal sentence. Its predicate is unspoken (understood as “established”), and “for Allah” attaches to it. The tree makes that invisible structure visible.

  • Arcs run right-to-left, the way the ayah is read.
  • Hidden (elided) words are shown in brackets, so you see what the grammarians infer.
  • Every relation links to a rule page filled with its other Quranic examples.

Sarf Lab

One root, a whole world

Patterns shape a root’s meaning. From ر ح م (tender mercy) come the two Divine Names in the basmala (the opening line بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ, “In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Especially Merciful”), the word for mercy, and even the word for womb.

Faʿlān suggests fullness; faʿīl suggests permanence. The shape of the word carries meaning a translation can’t.

Our vision

Reflection, grounded in the words themselves

﴿إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَٰهُ قُرْءَٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ﴾

“Indeed, We have sent it down as an Arabic Quran so that you may understand.” (Yūsuf 12:2)

We live in an age of accelerating technology, where answers are instant and attention is scarce. Quran 360 uses that same technology to slow down, to help people meet the Quran word by word, root by root.

Our hope is simple: that learners, teachers and researchers can derive their own concise reflections, perspectives and narrations from the Quran, grounded in its language rather than second-hand summaries, for the well-being of all humanity.

Voices of the tradition

تَعَلَّمُوا الْعَرَبِيَّةَ فَإِنَّهَا مِنْ دِينِكُمْ

Learn Arabic, for it is part of your religion.

ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb (reported)
انْحُ هَذَا النَّحْوَ

Follow this path. These are the words from which naḥw is said to take its name.

ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib, to Abū al-Aswad al-Duʾalī (reported)
قِيمَةُ كُلِّ امْرِئٍ مَا يُحْسِنُهُ

The worth of every person is in what they do well.

ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib, Nahj al-Balāgha
