Abstract
This research includes an introduction in which I clarified the importance of Al-Hadeeth (the prophet’s sayings) in the Islamic law since it is the second source in the Islamic legislation after the Holly Quran. Then I wrote about the concern of those who were specialized in the Arabic language in the honourable Hadeeth in the aspects of narrating, recounting and memorizing it since many of the scholars studied both sciences of Al-Hadeeth and sciences of the language. The researcher gave examples about the most famous scholars in this respect. After that I wrote about the reasoning depending on the honourable Hadeeth by the scholars of language who were either supporters or objectors and each group had its ideas and justifications concerning the reasons behind the support or the objection since some of the old scholars of language had cited it though they were few, whereas, the late scholars believed that its citation is obligatory even when the narration is in the meaning. Then the research dealt with life of the Imam Malik briefly besides his creed; the importance of his book which is under investigation and the reasons behind giving it this title.
This study presented the interrogation particles which were found in this book and which I wrote about them. The honourable Hadeeths in Al-Muwata’ Book were cited because they were the core of the study. Then the honourable ayahs from the Holly Quran which supported the citations from the Hadeeth were quoted starting with the glottal stop as well as its origins and importance. It was the main subject and the prevailing one which its omission from the sentence is possible when there is an evidence, i.e., the existence of (ام) /am/ (or) in the sentence. After that the researcher wrote about (هل) /(hal) / and how to make interrogation by using it. Certain hadeeths from Al-Muwata’ were quoted in which (هل) / hal/ was found. The glottal stop and (هل) / hal/ are two particles. The other interrogation particles were presented and discussed linguistically and syntactically. They are (ما) /maa/; (من) /man/ (who) ;(کیف) /keifa/ (how) ,(کم) /kam/ and(ماذا) /maathaa/ (what) . They are nouns. The manners in which they come in the sentence and the meaning of each one were discussed. Then the researcher studied the other particles which are called the adverbs or metonymies which are(این) /ayna/ (where) ;(انى) /annaa/) at which time or place) and(متى) /mataa/ (when) . Their meanings and denotations in the interrogation were also discussed. The study ended with a conclusion in which the most important results were mentioned. The sources and references consulted in the present study were also stated.
