issues of Arabic language (the language of The Holy Qur'an,

deficiency in understanding authentic sources of Arabic language

and Islamic sciences and also acquire more knowledge about

morphological patterns that make up the internal structure of

Arabic words, enabling them to distinguish between different

paid to it, because is the twin sister of Arabic Grammar; one

cannot master Arabic with only Grammar, but should mingle it

with Morphology.
