Sharḥ Qatr al-Nada is a book on Arabic grammar written by Ibn Hisham al-Ansari, one of the main scholars of the Arabic language.^[2][3]

The book consists of an original and an explanation of the same author, so the original is a body Qatr al-Nada, and the commentary is an explanation of the same body.^[4][5]

It is considered one of the grammatical references in teaching students the Arabic language.^[6][7]

The book includes most of the grammar chapters closely similar to the book The Golden Shades in Knowing the Words of the Arabs [ar] (Arabic: شذور الذهب في معرفة كلام العرب), in terms of subtraction and arrangement of titles, but it is less detailed than it, in a way that makes it more suitable for the reader and the learner, in the middle stages of education.^[8][9]

It begins with the Kalima and ends with Hamzat al-Wasl [ar], and is considered a summary in which grammatical rules are summarized in a brief form, and the explanation is an explanation of the content of the body phrases, a statement of what is intended, and includes the divisions and details, and mention the evidence.^[10][11]
