Ibn Mālik, al-Iʿtimād fī Naẓāʾir al-Ẓāʾ wa-l-Ḍād الإعتماد في نظائر الظاء والضاد
The Iʿtimād is a dictionary dedicated to similar Arabic words that share all of their letters
except for the letters ẓāʾ (ظ) and ḍād (ض), such as the words ḥāḍir
(حاضر, "present") and ḥāẓir (حاظر, "prohibiter").
This is an important area of knowledge for the student of the Arabic language, as the similarities between
these two letters often cause confusion and embarrassment for those writing in Arabic. This work was written
by Ibn Mālik, with recent additions of relevant words neglected by Ibn Mālik
by the Iraqi scholar and Baghdad University professor Dr. Ḥātim Ṣāliḥ al-Ḍāmin (b. 1938).
