Ancient Arabic Proverbs (in Arabic)

Auther : Afif Abdulrahman

This research is trying to seek and test the sources of Ancient Arabic Proverbs, and document them in their original sources, and to study the importance of their value as an original source to study the Arab life, culture, and thought.
The research depends essentially on proverbs: to prove any fact. It follows the following steps:

1. The proverbs in general, their character, value, the common factors, the importance.
2. The Arabic Proverb, how our scholars define it, its merits and value.
3. How the Ancient Arabic Proverbs reached us, the oral stage, the written stage, the steps and scholars, and the character of each step.
4. The problems which face scholars and how they can overcome or avoid them.
5. Studying some distinctive currents in the proverbs, especially if the proverbs could show us clearly how the Arabs lived, thought, and believed, and what relations they had with others.
