the comparative study on "amen" and its linguistic aspects

â arabic seems to have borrowed the word amen ( אö¸×žöµ×Ÿ ) originally from hebrew and used it as a religious term in islamic discourse the same as jewish. although it has a clear meaning in hebrew, there is no explicit meaning for it in arabic dictionaries and sources. at the same time, some hebrew hypotheses about this word have had an effect on the comprehension of the arab philologists and scholars. in the present study, amen is investigated comparatively in arabic and hebrew authoritative books, and a new linguistic commentary is presented.
