Ramadan Reading 2014 DAY 1 Adaab Al Islam (Morals & Manners in Islam) by Marwan Ibrahim Al Kaisi Introduction Arab is an Arabic term meaning custom; it denotes a habit, an etiquette, a manner of conduct derived from people considered as models. During the first two centuries following the emergence of Islam, the term adab carried ethical and social implications. The rot db means marvellous thing, or preperation, feast. Adab in this sense was the equivelant of the Latin ubranitas, civility, courtesy, refinement of the cities in contrast to bedouin uncouthness. So Adab of something means good manner of that thing. The plural is Aadaab. Aadaab al-Islam, therefore, means the good manners adopted by Islam, derived from its teachings and instructions. It is in this sense that it will be used in this book.
