10 Wasiat Imam Hassan Al-Banna

1. Apabila saudara mendengar azan, bangunlah sembahyang serta merta walau

bagaimana keadaan sekalipun.

2. Bacalah Al-Quran, atau tatapilah buku-buku, atau pergilah mendengar perkara yang

baik ataupun amalkanlah zikrullah dan janganlah sama sekali saudara membuang masa

walau sedikitpun, kerana perkara-perkara yang tidak berfaedah.

"3. Berusahalah seberapa daya upaya untuk bertutur dalam bahasa Arab fusha (

bahasa a'rab yang betul atau baku ) kerana bahasa Arab yang fusha itu adalah

satu syiar Islam."

4. Janganlah banyak bertengkar dalam apa perkara jua sekalipun kerana pertengkaran

yang kosong itu tidak memberi apa-apa kebaikan.

5. Janganlah banyak ketawa, kerana hati yang sentiasa berhubung dengan Allah itu,

selalunya tenang dan tenteram.

6. Janganlah bergurau, kerana umat yang sedang berjuang itu tidak mengerti melainkan

bersungguh-sungguh dalam sebarang perkara.

7. Janganlah saudara bercakap lebih nyaring daripada yang dikehendaki oleh para

pendengar, kerana yang demikian itu adalah suatu rasmi yang sia-sia, malah menyakiti

hati orang lain.

8. Jauhilah daripada mengumpat peribadi-peribadi orang, mengecam pertubuhan-

pertubuhan dan janganlah bercakap melainkan dengan apa-apa yang boleh memberikan

kebajikan.

9. Berkenal-kenal lah dengan setiap saudara muslimin yang saudara temui sekalipun ia

tidak meminta untuk berkenalan, kerana asas pergerakan seruan kita ialah berkasih

sayang dan berkenal-kenalan.

10. Kewajiban-kewajiban kita adalah lebih banyak daripada masa yang ada pada kita.

Oleh itu bantulah saudaramu seperti saudara melakukan tugas sendiri, maka

ringankanlah perlaksanaannya.

Subhanallah wa bihamdih. Subhanallah al-A'zim. Insya-Allah pada kali ni saya akan berkongsi sedikit

sebanyak berkenaan dengan Bahasa Arab Ammi Mesir.

Anda sudah baca 10 wasiat Imam Hassan al-Banna diatas? Saya sudah highlight kan wasiat ke-3 tu,

perasan tak? Tak apa, mari saya highlight kan sekali lagi.

3. Berusahalah seberapa daya upaya untuk bertutur dalam bahasa Arab fusha

( bahasa a'rab yang betul atau baku ) kerana bahasa Arab yang fusha itu adalah

satu syiar Islam.

Sebelum saya berbicara banyak tentang Bahasa 'Arab 'Ammi Mesir ini, ingin saya tegaskan dahulu

bahawa penggunaan Bahasa A'rab Fusha ( bahasa a'rab baku ) yang dipertuturkan oleh semua umat

Islam adalah sangat DIGALAKKAN kerana seperti kata Imam Hassan al-Banna, bahasa arab fusha

itu adalah satu syiar Islam. Ya, ini penting!.

" Sesungguhnya Kami menurunkannya berupa al-Quran berbahasa Arab, agar kamu mengerti"

( Surah Yusuf 12 : 2 )

Entri ini sebenarnya dibuat untuk rakan-rakan seperjuangan yang tidak ada kesempatan dan peluang

untuk mempelajari Bahasa A'rab A'mmi di mana-mana kursus yang telah dianjurkan. Ini hanyalah

sebagai salah satu persediaan sebelum menjejakkan kaki ke Ard al-Kinanah, Mesir. Jadi, terdetiklah

hati kecil ini berbekalkan taufiq kurniaan Ilahi untuk membuat entri ini. Semoga ianya bermanfaat~

Mari mulakan!

Apakah Bahasa Arab Ammi Mesir ini?

= Bahasa A'rab yang menggunakan loghat atau slang Mesir atau juga bahasa pasar bagi penduduk

Mesir.

Page 3: Arab Ammi

Ok, sebelum tu, biar saya jelaskan, bahasa A'rab A'mmi Mesir ni sebenarnya tiada kaedah untuk

mempelajarinya seperti mempelajari A'rab Fusha. Ia hanya menggunakan kaedah سمعية sahaja.

Kenyataan tersebut dinyatakan oleh guru saya iaitu Syeikhina Maher Saied , seorang warganegara

Mesir.

Sekarang mari kita lihat sedikit perkara utama. Anda harus faham bahawa bahasa 'arab 'ammi ni

terdapat penukaran huruf. Mari lihat!

I. PERUBAHAN DALAM PENUTURAN

1. Orang Mesir biasanya menuturkan huruf “ق“ dengan “ء“.

Contoh: كتابك واقرأ قم بنى يا

Dibaca: Yabni um wa’ra’ kitâba

Ertinya: Berdiri dan bacalah bukumu, nak!

2. Orang Mesir melafazkan huruf “ج“ dengan “g”.

Contoh: هنا جابك اللى ايه الله سبحان

Page 13: Arab Ammi

Dibaca: Subhanallah. Eeh elle gabak hina

Ertinya: Maha suci Allah, Bagaimana kamu boleh sampai ke sini.

3. Huruf “ث“ selalu diucapkan dengan “ت“.

Contoh: ثالثة من اكثر احنا

Dibaca: Ihna aktar min talâtah

Ertinya: Kami lebih daripada 3 orang

4. Biasanya huruf “ظ“ dituturkan dengan huruf “ض“

Contoh: والله سواء الظهر نصل ح احنا

Dibaca: ….الضهر…., dengan menggunakan “ض“

Ertinya: Sumpah, kami akan sholat Zuhur bersama.

5. Kadangkala, “ء” dibunyikan“ “ى. Untuk memudahkan pengucapan.

Contoh: , نائم مش اه جاى انا رئيس يا

Dibaca: Ya rayyis ana gai aho, misy nayim

Ertinya: Boss, saya datang ni, tak tidur.

6. Biasanya huruf “ذ” diucapkan dengan “د“.

Page 14: Arab Ammi

Contoh: ذا .…الذهب

Dibaca: Addahab dah…

Ertinya: Emas ini,

II. KAEDAH DASAR

1. Mengakhiri seluruh kata dengan huruf mati (sukun: __ ْ_ ), tanpa memperhatikan kaedah bahasa

Arab (al-Nahwu) yang baku.

Contoh: حاال دىالوقت، !عايزك

Dibaca: Aizak dil wa’ty. Hâlan!

Ertinya: Aku nak jumpa kamu. Sekarang juga!

2. Menambahkan huruf “ب” pada awal fi’il mudlâri’ ( المضارع present tense) yang menunjukkan = الفعل

peristiwa yang sedang terjadi.

Contoh: نايم وانت الدرس بتفهم ازى

Dibaca: Izzay bi tifham addars wainta nayim

Artinya: Bagaimana kamu memahami pelajaran jika kamu tidur

Page 15: Arab Ammi

3. Meletakkan huruf ” Mح” pada awal fi’il mudlâri’ المضارع yang menunjukkan peristiwa yang ( (الفعل

akan terjadi (future tense). Ia menggantikan fungsi (makna) huruf “س” atau “سوف” dalam bahasa

Arab fushHa. Perlu diingat juga, umumnya huruf awal fi’il mudlâri’ tersebut diucapkan secara samar

antara kasrah dan fathah امالة ) (

Contoh: الصبح بكرة الجامعة حنروح

Dibaca: Haneruh el gam’ah bukroh essubh

Ertinya: Esok pagi kita akan pergi ke kampus

4. Menambahkan huruf “ْش” (sukun) pada setiap akhir kata kerja/benda yang didahului dengan huruf

(penafian) “ النافية ”ما

Contoh: أنا امبارح من أكلتش ما فلوس عنديش ما

Dibaca: Ana ma andisy fulûs, ma akaltusy minimbârih

Ertinya: saya tidak mempunyai wang, belum makan sejak semalam.

Before moving into some of the songs and breaking down their sentences, it will be nice to enjoy this video and get a simple introduction to Egyptian Arabic as well as Egyptian music. This song by Hakim is entitled "as-salaamu 3aleekum ( which means "Peace be upon you." This is a common way of saying "(السالم عليكمhi in Egypt as well as much of the Muslim world. The response to "as-salaamu 3aleekum (السالم عليكم)" is "wa-3aleekum as-salaam (وعليكم السالم)" which should be said whenever anyone greets you saying "as-salaamu 3aleekum ( السالم".(سلyم) The verb "to say hi" or "to say salaam" is thus, "sallam ".(عليكم

The musical style in this song is shaabi, which means "folk" or "people's" music but refers to a certain style of pop music driven by the distinct kind of rhythm you'll find in this song optimized for dancing with lyrical emphasis on repetition of catchy lines.

xalaaS (خالص) - that's it3aayiz (عايز) - wantfaakir (فاكر) - rememberingtaani (تاني) - again, anotherbit'uul (بتقول) - you saybititkallim (مyبتتكل) - to talkeh (ايه) - what?mish (مش) - notilli (اللي) - which, that, that which

3amal (عمل) - to do

For those who are familiar with Standard Arabic or a dialect of Arabic other than Egyptian, this song is ideal for illustrating many of the basic aspects of Egyptian Arabic that can be challenging if you have no experience with the dialect. However, if you learn a few basic points about Egyptian colloquial you will find that is it not so different from the version of Arabic that you know.

Pop music is one of the portals to the world of spoken Arabic. Music of the Arabic-speaking world is typically sung in dialects as opposed to Standard Arabic, and many singers regardless of origin sing in Egyptian dialect of Cairo due to the size of the Egyptian market and the relative familiarity that people have with this dialect. The song "ma xalaaS (ما خالص)" by Samira Said is a case in point. Samira Said was born in Morocco but has since moved to Egypt to become one of the more successful pop artists in the Arab world today. The song's title, "ma xalaaS which means "that's ",(خالص) contains the very common word "xalaaS ",(ما خالص)it," or "it's over." It has both the connotations as "that's all" and "it's done" just like the phrase "that's it" in English. This word is not explicitly Egyptian but can be found much more in colloquial speech because saying "that's it" is a very idiomatic aspect of speech not found in written Arabic. The "ما" adds emphasis to the phrase to the effect of "it's soooo over" or something along those lines.

laazim (الزم) - must, gotta, it is necessary that3ayza (عايزا) - I, you, she wants (female)baHibb (بحب) - I love, I'd like to'awiy (أوي) - very, a lotHaaga (حاجة) - thing'albi (قلبي) - my heartgarH (جرح) - woundakiid (أكيد) - for sure, certainlyal-dunya (الدنيا) - the world, everyoneaywah (أيوه) - yes, yeahha (ه or ح) - future tense marker, willb- (ب) - present tense marker

masha (مشى) - to leave, to go, to walk3aash (عاش) - to liveistana (استنى) - to wait for, to await

In the last lesson we examined the song "ma xalaaS (ما خالص)" by Samira Said, and we learned many new basics of Egyptian Arabic. So now that we know a few things about Egyptian Arabic, the different prefixes for verbs, the differences in pronunciation and some different vocabulary, let's see how easy it is to understand another song. The following song is by Sherine Ahmed, who is possibly the most prominent Egyptian female pop artist currently. This song is entitled "laazim a3iish (الزم أعيش)" which means "I gotta live." We know that in

Standard Arabic to say that something is necessary we may use the phrase " من and this is the same in principle. However, it is much simpler; to "الالزمcommunicate the meaning of something being necessary one must just say "laazim (الزم) ..."

In the last lesson, we examined the song "laazim a3iish (الزم أعيش)" by Sherine and learned the useful verb "3aayiz (عايز)," meaning "want" and the modal "laazim (الزم)," meaning "gotta" or "must." In this lesson we will learn a useful adverb, "lissa (لسه)," meaning "still," along with another modal "nifsi ( meaning "I wanna." The singer of this song is Tamer Hosni, a very ",(نفسيpopular Egyptian singer who became famous from his duet album with Sherine. The title of the song, "lissa baHibbak (لسه بحبك)," means "I still love you" or "I'm still loving you." The word "lissa (لسه)" means "still," replacing the verb from Standard Arabic "" in this function. "lissa (لسه)" is not conjugated for person, gender or number, so "ana lissa, anti lissa, huwwa lissa" etc.

Hosni, we learned, among many things, to say that one is holding a grudge "shaayil min (شايل من)" someone. In this lesson featuring the song "hatmanna lu al-xeer (اله الخيرy ".by Angham, you will certainly find a different sentiment "(هتمنYou guys are really accumulating some knowledge now, so I will be providing less and less explanation, allowing you to do your own reflection on and comprehension of the lyrics.

The title, "hatmanna lu al-xeer (هتمناله الخير)" can be translated as "I will wish him well," using the verb "itmanna (اتمنى)." "al-xeer (الخير)" is "goodness" or "good" or "wellness."

In Lesson 4, we saw that "itmanna al-xeer (اتمنى الخير)" means "to wish well." This lesson also deals with wishes, using the song "munaaya (منايا)" by Moustafa Amar. "munaa (منا)" is the plural of "munya (منية)," meaning wish or desire. Although the song is called "munaaya (منايا)," my wishes, we should translate this as "My Wish."

yoomeen (يومين) - two days

lamas (سMمMل) - to touch'arrab (ر�بMق) - to get closeibtada (ابتدى) - to start, for something to begin

In this lesson, you will start to learn about expressing "this" and "that" in Egyptian Arabic. The masculine and feminine words meaning both "this" and "that" are "dah (ده)" and "di (دي)." To say this is a boy, you just have to say "dah waad (ده واد)," however, to say "this boy," you say "al-waad dah (الواد ده)." Do you see how it is affixed to noun? this is a specific feature of Egyptian Arabic, just like the questions coming at the end of the sentence.

The song in this lesson is entitled "lamastak ()," meaning "I Touched You." Notice how once again the singer, Amr Moustafa, is singing to a grammatical male but of course it is meant for a girl or a "generic" person.

wi-maa-luh (وماله) - so what?, it's finemaali (مالي) - fillingmaa-li (مالي) - I don't havemaa-li (مالي) - what's it to me?, what's wrong with me?gheer (غير) - other thanhina (هنا) - hereleh? (ليه؟) - why?iHsaas (إحساس) - a feelingaHla (أحلى) - sweetest, prettiest, most wonderful

In Lesson 6, we talked about "di (دي)" and "dah (ده)" and in this song we'll see a little more in the song "wi-maa-lu (وماله)" by Amr Diab. Of course Amr Diab is among the most famous pop stars in the Arab world and has been for almost 20 years. He is the biggest name in Egyptian music after the classic singers like Oum Kalthoum, Abdel Halim Hafez and Mohamed Abdel Wahhab. The phrase "wi-maa-lu (وماله)" is idiomatic but very important. Those who has studied Standard Arabic know that "maa (ما)" means "what?" "maa l- (ما ل)" in Egyptian Arabic means "what's with" or "what's wrong with x." So "maa-lak (مالك)" means like "what's with you?" or "what's wrong with you?" Or "maa li-l-3arabiyya di (ما للعربية means "what's wrong with this car?" or "what's up with this car?" So you can "(ديsee the meaning this phrase gives. The phrase "wi-maa-lu ()" by itself means "so what?" or "it's OK, it's fine," if you literally translate it as "and what's wrong with it," you can see how it has this meaning.

In Lesson 7, we analyzed the persuasive sweet-talk of Egyptian biggest pop star Amr Diab. In this lesson, we move to Lebanon's biggest pop star Nancy Ajram. Although Lebanon is a country of just a few million people, they are responsible for a significant percentage of Arabic pop music releases. However, Lebanese singers sometimes sing in Egyptian or Gulf dialects instead of their own, in order to reach a wider audience. Nancy Ajram rose to fame with her album "Ah we Nuss," which was sung in the Egyptian dialect. This song, "anta eh? (انت ايه؟)" is off that album. "enta eh? (انت ايه؟)" of course means literally "what are you?" but the sense intended in this phrase is like "why are you so cruel?" Like "what are you, what's your problem?"

In Lesson 8, we found Nancy Ajram, a Lebanese pop star, singing in perfect Egyptian Arabic. In this lesson we find another non-Egyptian star, albeit a much older one, singing in the Egyptian dialect once again. Asmahan was one of the most prominent singers in Cairo during the 1930 and 1940s and was a contemporary of Oum Kalthoum. She was actually a Druze "princess;" her father had been a governor in the late Ottoman Empire. While her family was from the Druze regions of Lebanon and Syria, Asmahan moved to Cairo with her mother when she was young and eventually became a one of the most famous singers. Her real name was Amal al-Atrash and she was the sister of famous musician Farid al-Atrash. Her story is especially famous because she died very young in a mysterious car crash in 1944, similar to Princess Diana. Conspiracy theories swirl about this event because it is alleged she may have been assassinated because of ties with the Allied forces as a member of a prestigious Druze family.

Anyway, this song is from her last movie entitled "gharaam wa intiqaam ( غرام .meaning "Passion and Revenge." She died before the taping finished "(وانتقامThe song is called, "imta hat3arif (امتى حتعرف)," "When will you know?" Listen and read along before we dive in. Don't pay attention to the French subtitles. They aren't wrong per se, but they are not very literal and won't help you learn.

In Lesson 9, we heard from Asmahan, one of the great female singers of modern Egyptian history. Now we'll hear a song from perhaps the most famous male singer in the history of Arabic music, Abdel Halim Hafez. Abdel Halim's career spanned over 2 decades, during which he became a cultural icon. He first rose to fame just as Egypt was gaining independence in 1952, and thus became a beloved symbol of the new nation. Like Asmahan, he died somewhat prematurely in 1977 at just 47 years of age. For this reason and of course his countless classic songs and wonderful smile and charm, he is often compared to

Page 35: Arab Ammi

Elvis Presley. His nickname was "al-3andaliib al-asmar (العندليب األسمر)" which means "the dark nightingale."

This is one of Abdel Halim's earlier works, from the 1955 movie "ayaam wa layaali (أيام وليالي)." The title, "tooba (توبة)," means "Never Again."

Before doing this lesson go back and review some of the key words that maybe you overlooked or forgot. Things will start moving fast. Admittedly, Lesson 10 was tough, but this one should be easy by comparison. The singer is current pop star Haytham Shaker and the song is "xalliik gambi (خليك جنبي)," "Be By My Side." Watch, listen, read.

After hearing some modern Egyptian pop in Lesson 11, I think it's time to return to the classics. This lesson will utilize the song "ana 'albi ileek mayyaal ( انا قلبيyال My Heart is Fond of You," sung by Fayza Ahmed and written by the" ",(اليك ميtalented composer Mohamed Mogi. Fayza Ahmed was born in Lebanon/Syria

Page 36: Arab Ammi

during the 1930s, but like Asmahan before her, moved to Egypt to really make her career singing in the Egyptian dialect, and her career overlaps with that of Abdel Halim Hafez. She recorded hundreds of songs and films throughout her career, which ended prematurely in 1983 when she died of cancer at 48 years of age.

Lesson 12 featured a Lebanese singer singing in the Egyptian dialect, however, this lesson will feature an Egyptian singer Hisham Abbas singing a song from the soundtrack of a popular movie "Omar wa Selma (Omar and Selma)." The song is entitled "Wala Haaga (وال حاجة)" meaning "Nothing," and as you will see, Hisham's point in this song is prove to his lover that contrary to what she has heard, he hasn't done "wala Haaga."

After that vocab filled Lesson 13, I thought it was time to do a song that reviews some things you already know. This lesson centers on the song "ana mish ba3iid

Page 37: Arab Ammi

by Medhat Saleh, an Egyptian pop singer of the generation of Amr "(انا مش بعيد)Diab. The title, which means "I am Not Far," refers to the awkward situation in the song in which the two lovers are estranged from one another despite their close proximity. Take a listen and read along.

After introducing so many difficult lessons up through Lesson 14, it will be beneficial to look back on what you've learned with this song. The song entitled "anta ma3aaya (انت معايا)," "You're With Me" by Hossam Habib is a very simple but typical Egyptian pop song. I've chosen this song because except for a few words listed above, all of the grammar and vocabulary in the song has been covered in previous lessons. Thus, I will not give complete explanations of this song, but rather just a few commentary to help you understand. First take a listen and read along to see what you can get.
