Journal Title: Turkish Academic Research Review - Year 2021, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Fourth century a.h. is accepted as golden age in terms of Islamic science history. With regard to Arabic grammar as well, this era stands out as a period in which Basra and Kufa schools were weakened and the views of one of the two schools were preferred in Baghdad. Abu Ali al-Farisi (d. 377/987), one of the linguists who grew up in this period, also adapted to this situation that dominated the period and used to choose the view which was right in his perspective among different views. The author is an important scholar who made many studies in the field of sarf, nahwu, vocabulary, and poetry; and wrote more than thirty works. One of the works that shows the scientific aspect of al-Farisi and which has an important place in the tradition is al-Takmilah. This work is accepted as one of the first period sarf studies. In this article, the method followed by the author in this work, his life, education, teachers, students, travels, and his works are discussed. During this study, biographical works written about the life of al-Farisi from the time he lived up to the present were examined, the manuscript and the authentic copies of al-Takmilah were obtained, and topics from the work of Curcani (d. 471/1078-79) named Kitabu'l-Muḳtashid, which is the commentary of al-Takmilah were followed. As a result of the study, it was concluded that al-Farisi benefited from the views of the linguists before him, but based on the change in the word in al-Takmilah, it was also concluded that in terms of methodology, he followed his own method in his work.
