During a conversation about the virutes of the Arabic Language, a brother made the following statements:
quote:


1. Adam ('alayhis sallam) was an Arab and spoke Arabic.
2. The questioning in the Qabr by the Malaakiah will be asked in Arabic.
3. The Hisab (Reckoning)on Yaumul Qiyaamah will be in Arabic.
4. The Language of the people of Jennah is Arabic.

Question: Can someone please post the truth regarding each of these claims?

  Each of them refers to the ghayb, so then authentic texts are required to prove them.  I think I remember reading a weak narration about #4, but I can't locate it now.  Also, in terms of the history fo the 'Arabic Language, the earliest writings preserved, like jaahiliyyah poetry, only date back to about 150 years before the time of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam).  This is why names like 'Eesaa, Moosaa, Ibraaheem, etc. are considered A'jamee (non-'Arabic), at least in terms of 'Arabic grammar.  (I mean to say that Ibraaheem, for example, is mamnoo' min as-sarf, because of [1]'alamiyyah, and [2]'ajamiyyah, for those who have studied this.)

Furthermore, I have heard ppl say that all the prophets spoke 'arabic.  This, like the 4 listed above, requires proof, and it seems to contradict the opening aayaat of Soorah Ibraaheem, where Allaah says that He did not send any messenger except that he spoke the language of his people, so as to clarify (the message) to them.

And Allaah knows best.  Maybe someone knows of the weak hadeeth I referred to regarding #4.

  Jezzekallahu khair akhi Moosa for the reply.

Al-Muhaddith Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani brought in As-Silsilatud-Da?eefah no.161 the hadeeth:  I am an Arab, the Qur?an is Arabic, and the language of the people of Paradise is Arabic.
Fabricated.

Were not Prophets Hood and Saalih Arabs along with their tribes 'Aad and Thamood?

  As salamu alaikum

Some say that Aadam (Alaihissalam) was taught the Usool (basics) of all the languages spoken today and they say it was called Siryaaniyyah. I hear that some people in Yemen still speak this language now. I thought Arabs were around before Ibraheem because Hood and Saalih came before Ibraheem and they were Arabs along with their tribes 'Aad and Thamood.
