For a standard introduction to Arabic dialectology, see

Fischer, Wolfdietrich und Jastrow, Otto (Hgg.), Handbuch der arabischen
Dialekte, Wiesbaden 1980 (Porta Linguarum Orientalium N.S.16). (No
research should be made without reading knowledge of German)

Very useful (many links) is the website of the Heidelberg institute of
Semitic studies:

http://semitistik.uni-hd.de.

Best wishes, Andreas Kaplony

Hello,

For a general introduction (and much more!) of Arabic dialectology see:
Bakallah, Muhammad (1983): Arabic linguistics. An introduction and
bibliograpy, London: Mansell Publishing.
Cantineau, Jean (1955): "La dialectologie arabe", Orbis, 4, pp.  
149-169. (=
J. Cantineau (1960), Etudes de linguistique arabe. Memorial Jean  
Cantinea,
Paris: Klincksieck, pp. 257-78). J. Cantineau's 'Cours de phonétique  
arabe'
(= J. Cantineau 1960, pp.3-125) also offers a wealth of dialectological
information.
Fischer, Wolfdietrich & Otto Jastrow (1980): Handbuch der Arabischen
Dialekte, Wiesbaden (Porta Linguarum Orientalium N.S. 16). Still the  
basic
reference work!
Fischer, W. (ed.) (1982): Grundriss der Arabischen Philologie. Band I:
Sprachwissenschaft", Wiesbaden: Dr. Ludwig Reichert Verlag. (esp.  
chapter 3)
Holes, Clive (1995): Modern Arabic, London: Longman.
For references on individual dialects, Bakallah (1983) and Fischer  
(1980)
should be the first ports of call.
I hope this will be of some use to you.
Kind regards,
Daniel Newman
