Imam Birgiwî (d. 981/1573) is a scholar who lived during the sixteenth century when the Ottoman Empire reached its peak in science, culture and art. His work, al-Awāmil, is an important work in the Arabic language literature, discussing the basic principles of the science of syntax. This work examines the issues of syntax, namely, âmil, ma’alum and ʻirâb. In this work, considered as an introduction to Arabic grammar, Birgiwî explains each subject in a way that it is easy for a learner to keep them in mind. The Qur’anic verses and hadiths are given as examples for grammatical rules in the book. This characteristic of it is quite remarkable in terms of reflecting the Islamic belief and morality as well as knowledge of Nahiw and therefore is distinguished from its similar versions in this respect. The usage of a simple language, abstaining from entering into grammatical details and disputes among the Nahiw schools, the separation of subjects with a mathematical visualization system and the usage of catchy examples are noteworthy characteristics of al-Awāmil in terms of teaching technique and method. Al-Avāmil, maintaining its up-to-dateness, is still read and taught by those who want to learn Arabic and teach it. In fact, it is also considered to be a basic source for those who write about the science of Nahiw. In this study, after a brief introduction about the author and his work, we analyze the content of the work, features of its language and method in detail. In addition to that, the method and importance of this work in teaching the science of Nahiw is evaluated. It is compared with the classical and contemporary Nahiw books.
