This book is unique, at least among the Arabic dictionaries of which I am aware. It allows you to look up Arabic words alphabetically, as you would using Al-Mawrid: A Modern Arabic-English Dictionary but also refers you to the three consonant stem to which each word corresponds. In fact, this book provides the equivalent of one to several paragraphs outlining the variants of each three consonant stem. In this way it sort of bridges the gap between a dictionary like Arabic-English Dictionary: The Hans Wehr Dictionary of Modern Written Arabic in which the words are organized by the three consonant stem and a strictly alphabetical dictionary such as Al-Mawid.Product details

Dictionary of the Holy Quran Arabic English Abdul Mannan Omar 9780976697282 Books Reviews
Same as the paperback version by another publisher, but finer binding. Similar to binding often used for Bibles.
Good for beginners because of the cross referencing of roots. Also valued the focus on the Qur'anic meanings and words.
Decent dictionary though the tashkeel could be revised, some of it is off it seems.
For non-Arabic, English-speaking people, this dictionary is okay. What makes it difficult to use is how it is alphabetized, for it follow the Arabic alphabet. Moreover, some of the Arabic words are not spelled quite like other Arabic writers write, so finding a word can become a bit unwieldy and time-consuming. But, it's okay. Nothing special. Nothing terrible. Just, okay.
Book for the Layman For the student and layman, whose mother tongue is not Arabic, the "Dictionary of the Holy Qur'an" (Arabic-English) by `Abdul Mannan `Omar is without doubt an intimate and indispensable companion book to the study of the Qur'anic Text. This dictionary is especially geared to the novice, student, and layman, and even to serious scholars studying classical Arabic.
Debt of gratitude Without hesitation or reservation, i have to state that we are deeply indebted to the venerable Mannan family, who have published and facilitated publication of several scholarly works on Islam. I pay special tribute to the author of this dictionary for his dedication to Arabic scholarship by virtue of this book, which accents the beauty and magnificence of the Arabic Qur'an.
Best Single Volume This book is the best single volume dictionary available on Qur'anic Arabic outside of the respected and popular E.W. Lane's "Arabic-English Lexicon," which comprises several volumes. Another book, different but to a extent complementary, is Hanna E. Kassis "A Concordance of the Qur'an." The latter of course, is an English-based volume, requiring no knowledge of Arabic, but it does provides arabic roots for all English-based words, traced to various Qur'anic translations. The prime difference between Mannan's dictionary and Kassis' concordance is that the former requires elementary knowledge of the Arabic aphabet, while the latter does not! Both are equally accessible to the layman.
Ease of Use Mannan's dictionary follows the same method of use as any standard English dictionary. It is arranged in Arabic alphabetic order, following the sequence of fathah, kasrah, and dammah, in Index 1 (282 pages).
Authoritativeness finally, this dictionary permits the student/researcher to access the "classical" root meanings of all Arabic words used in the Qur'anic Text due to the fact that its very contents come from the best extant classical Arabic works, including Al-Mufridat, Lisan al-`Arab, and Taj al-`Arus.
Without hesitation, I strongly recommend Mannan's dictionary for anyone interested in a casual or serious study of the Islam's sacred text.
sincerely,
Mohamad K. Yusuff
This is a great book that gave me everything I was looking for. The cover is nice quality and the book will last a long time even if I transport it around with me.
This help individual's like me to know Arabic and to understanding the words and understand the al- Quran much better
