عربی اصل، Mutūn al-manṭiq wa-l-ḥikma: Īsāghūjī wa-l-Sullam al-munawraq, Jakarta 1434/2013
الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِي قَدْ أَخْرَجَانَتَائِجَ الْفِكْرِ لِأَرْبَابِ الْحِجَا
وَحَطَّ عَنْهُمْ مِنْ سَمَاءِ الْعَقْلِكُلَّ حِجَابٍ مِنْ سَحَابِ الْجَهْلِ
حَتَّى بَدَتْ لَهُمْ شُمُوسُ الْمَعْرِفَهْرَأَوْا مُخَدَّرَاتِهَا مُنْكَشِفَهْ
Praise be to God, who has brought forth the results of thought for people of understanding, and has removed from them, from the sky of the intellect, every veil of the clouds of ignorance, until the suns of knowledge appeared to them and they saw its hidden brides unveiled.
نَحْمَدُهُ جَلَّ عَلَى الْإِنْعَامِبِنِعْمَةِ الْإِيمَانِ وَالْإِسْلَامِ
مَنْ خَصَّنَا بِخَيْرِ مَنْ قَدْ أُرْسِلَاوَخَيْرِ مَنْ حَازَ الْمَقَامَاتِ الْعُلَا
مُحَمَّدٍ سَيِّدِ كُلِّ مُقْتَفَىالْعَرَبِيِّ الْهَاشِمِيِّ الْمُصْطَفَى
صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ اللّٰهُ مَا دَامَ الْحِجَايَخُوضُ مِنْ بَحْرِ الْمَعَانِي لُجَجَا
وَآلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ ذَوِي الْهُدَىمَنْ شُبِّهُوا بِأَنْجُمٍ فِي الِاهْتِدَا
We praise Him, exalted is He, for His favour — the gift of faith and of Islam — who singled us out with the best of those ever sent, the best of those who attained the highest stations: Muḥammad, master of all who are followed, the Arab, the Hāshimī, the chosen one. May God bless him as long as the mind wades into the depths of the sea of meanings, and his family and companions, people of guidance, who were likened to stars to be guided by.
وَبَعْدُ فَالْمَنْطِقُ لِلْجَنَانِنِسْبَتُهُ كَالنَّحْوِ لِلِّسَانِ
فَيَعْصِمُ الْأَفْكَارَ عَنْ غَيِّ الْخَطَاوَعَنْ دَقِيقِ الْفَهْمِ يَكْشِفُ الْغِطَا
فَهَاكَ مِنْ أُصُولِهِ قَوَاعِدَاتَجْمَعُ مِنْ فُنُونِهِ فَوَائِدَا
Now then: logic is to the mind what grammar is to the tongue. It guards thought against the error of mistakes and lifts the veil from subtle understanding. So here are rules from its foundations, gathering benefits from its branches.
سَمَّيْتُهُ بِالسُّلَّمِ الْمُنَوْرَقِيُرْقَى بِهِ سَمَاءُ عِلْمِ الْمَنْطِقِ
وَاللّٰهَ أَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ خَالِصَالِوَجْهِهِ الْكَرِيمِ لَيْسَ قَالِصَا
وَأَنْ يَكُونَ نَافِعًا لِلْمُبْتَدِيبِهِ إِلَى الْمُطَوَّلَاتِ يَهْتَدِي
I have named it al-Sullam al-munawraq, the Embellished Ladder, by which one climbs to the sky of the science of logic. I hope from God that it will be purely for His noble face, not falling short, and that it will benefit the beginner, so that by it he finds his way to the longer works.
سبق
The Sullam is a poem in rajaz metre of 144 verses, written in 941/1534 by ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Akhḍarī of Biskra in present-day Algeria, when he was twenty-one. It is the first text of the North-African madrasas, from al-Azhar to al-Qarawiyyīn and al-Zaytūna, and of the Mauritanian maḥāḍir, where it is learnt by heart. Its plan is that of al-Abharī's : , then and the , then the kinds of proof.
The opening praises God for bringing forth “the results of thought”: the word for result, natīja, is also the 's word for a , and the poem plays on it. Then comes the famous comparison: logic is to the mind what grammar is to the tongue. Grammar keeps speech from error; logic keeps thought from error, and opens what is hard to understand.
Al-Akhḍarī calls his poem “the embellished ladder” (al-sullam al-munawraq), by which one climbs to the sky of , and hopes it will lead the beginner on to the longer works. That is its place in the madrasa: a short text to memorise, then read again with its .
