The subject of this study ' conditional sentences
within the Arab grammatical tradition' is probably one
of the more difficult areas of Classical Arabic grammar
since it has all the imperfections and shortcomings of
Classical Arabic grammar.
The study involves a linguistic analysis; investiga
theorizing and evaluating the majority of the Arab
grammarians' views on the topic concerned throughout
thirteen centuries.
This work consists of five chapters. The first
chapter is concerned with examining and evaluating several
treatments (of conditional sentences) represented by three
different linguistic approaches considered representative
of important trends. The second chapter will be devoted
to certain fundamental assumptions made by the grammaria
concerning the category 'condition' as well as other
relevant categories. The details of the syntactic analysis
of each individual element of conditional sentences will
given, together with other relevant topics, in chapter
three. Chapter four classifies and enumerates the most
important semantic types and uses of Classical Arabic
conditional constructions. It points out also the relevant
syntactic features which determine the acceptability of
various semantic types of conditional sentences. Chapter
five will be confined to general remarks and conclusions
