Abstract

The research focuses on one of the prominent figures of grammar in Andalusia during the seventh and early eighth centuries, who hails from the lesser-known Al-Andalus. Despite not receiving much attention or gaining widespread fame during his time, he was nevertheless one of the remarkable linguists and grammarians of that era. His name was Abu Bakr Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Abeedah, who was a student of Ibn Abi al-Rabi' and counted among his most intelligent disciples. He made significant contributions to the field of grammar and had numerous students, especially among the grammarians of Ceuta. He played a role in enriching the Andalusian grammatical tradition and was considered one of the brilliant minds in grammar and language after Ibn Abi al-Rabee. He provided explanations for Sibawayh's book, Jumal Al-Zajjaji, and other works, but unfortunately, many of these compilations have been lost to the passage of time. We can only rely on what has been transmitted through grammar books written by his students and subsequent scholars. In the introduction of the research, I discussed the personality of Abu Bakr bin Abeedah Al-Sabti, providing details about his name, lineage, predecessors, students, personal qualities, scholarly status, and his passing. The research then delves into two sections, examining his grammatical and morphological perspectives, his choices and directions. Finally, the research concludes by summarizing the most significant findings.
