Abstract
The books of Ibn Hisham, including Sharh Bant Suad, are considered as encyclopedias that contain numerous arts on Arabic language and other sciences of relation to Arabic language such as grammar, language, syntax, rhetoric or terminology. All these demonstrate that Ibn Hisham had a great experience in teaching grammar. Ibn Hisham achieved all his knowledge from other grammarians and linguists. Hence, in this study, we attempt to identify the references that Ibn Hisham relied upon in his explanation first; then decide about his approach in using the linguistic texts. The current study consists of two chapters; proceeded by an introduction and followed by a conclusion. The introduction sheds light on Ibn Hisham and his book. Moreover, section one illustrates the linguistic sources that Ibn Hisham used in (Sharh Bant Suad), and the second section identifies his approach in transferring linguistic sources. Finally, the conclusion shows the most important findings that the researchers reached in the current study.
