Abstract

It has been well known that Koran was written by classical Arabic that Quraish language had much influenced. But in the Koran, we can find the some linguistic phenomenon that not existed in the Quraish tribal language. It means that the linguistic features of the many tribes (Tamim, Asad, Kinana, Hudhail, Qais, Tay and so forth) in Jahiliya age had influenced the Koran and classical Arabic. After codification of Koran, it has been permissible to recite it as the various ways that were reflected the linguistic peculiarities of the various tribes. We can affirm this practice in ancient Arab philologists’ statement, like Al-Suyuti and Ibn Jinni etc. Therefore, to research the linguistic features of the ancient tribes is very important to understand the linguistic feature of the classical Arabic and the relation with modern Arab dialect. In this article, I will analysis the characters of the languages of the ancient Arab tribes centering around the phoneme and alternation of the consonant.
