Abstract

The study of the ancient Arabic languages has an important impact on the understanding of the time period of that language and on the circumstances surrounding that language, which has helped to develop it. We have also helped us to understand and understand the geographical origin of those tribes. The language we are talking about is the Ma ' ada' ai language, the origin of which belongs to the Aramaic language. It is no secret that the Ma ' diya is the language of the Sabean. However, this language has received little study and research even from the people of the religion themselves. The reason for their long-standing separation and religious conversion is that they have been subjected to great persecution in successive eras, for they have had to abandon and shut down to preserve their religion and heritage, as well as to the loss of many books about their history and heritage. In presenting this study, we call for an aramaic tone, which in turn has been placed in the Arab or island family. The research shed light on the language of the Sabeans, the proximity and semi-Arabism of the Menadais. It dealt with the most important linguistic, voice and language issues in their language, with the use of the book of the rules and other books that had documented the language. One of the most important findings of the research is that the characters of the paged alphabet are similar to the many forms of Arabic alphabet writing, and that the language of the page is the language in which the Sabean manuscripts, teachings, prayers, statues and pretenders appear, so the language of the page has been defined as a ritual language adopted during religious ceremonies.
