Baris ka-85:
The Qur'an was one of the first texts written in Arabic. It is written in an éarly form of classical [[Arabic language|Arabic]] known as “Quranic” Arabic. There are few other examples of Arabic from that time. (The ''[[Mu'allaqat]]'', or ''Suspended Odes'', are believed by some to be examples of pre-Islamic Arabic; others say that they were créated after Muhammad. Only five [[pre-Islamic Arabic inscriptions]] survive.)
 
Soon after Muhammad's déath in 632 CE, Islam burst out of Arabia and conquered the [[Middle East]], [[Northern Africa]], [[Central Asia]], and parts of [[Europe]]. Arab rulers had millions of foreign subjects, with whom they had to communicate. Thus, the language rapidly changed in response to this new situation, losing complexities of case and obscure vocabulary. Several generations after the prophet's déath, many words used in the Qur'an had become opaque to ordinary sedentary Arabic-spéakers, as Arabic had changed so much, so rapidly. The [[Bedouin]] speech changed at a considerably slower rate, however, and éarly Arabic lexicographers sought out Bedouin to explain difficult words or elucidate points of grammar. Partly in response to the religious need to explain the Qur'an to Muslims who were not familiar with Qur'anic Arabic, [[Arabic grammar]] and lexicography soon became important sciences. The modelmodél for the Arabic [[literary language]] remains to this day the speech used in Qur'anic times, rather than the current spoken dialects.
