I am happy to announce that a Classical Arabic Corpus will be
available soon. This 10m. word corpus includes a variety of genres:
theology, philosophy, linguistics, science, fiction, biography,
proverbs, poetry in addition to Hadith and Qur'an. Its lifespan covers
the first four centuries of Islam.
