Ilmy Notes

Sarf - Present Tense Table of "Yaf`alu" (He's Doing)


Can you find any more examples in the Qur'an?

Rules of 5 Accusative Particles (الحروف الناصبة)

(1) ِAn - That  (2) Lan - Will not/never  (3) Kay - In order to/because 
(4) Idhan - Then  (5) Li - In order to (Laam of Explanation) 

5 (or 6) Irregular Nouns (الاسماءُ الخمسة)

There are six ''irregular'' nouns in Arabic which are a bit odd because when they change their state and I`raab (final Harakat), they glue on matching letters too.

Let's take a look.
THE 5 (or 6) NOUNS
We have learnt these words at Al-Markaz ul Islami in Bradford UK, as:
(1) أخٌ - Brother   (2) أبٌ - Father   (3) حَمٌ - Father in-law   (4) فُوْ - Mouth   (5) ذٌوْ - Owner/having

Note: the word هن is more commonly ended with normal vowel endings and not these extra ones, that's why it's extra in my notes. Some people do use the rare irregular case ending for it.

==============================================
THE GOLDEN RULE
When these five nouns are Mudaf to any noun - except 'Ya Mutakkalim' (representing 'my') - they take a matching vowel letter (ا وي) to represent their states.

SMT Markaz Final Exam Content (Semester 3)

Dear Class Semester 3,

As a helping hand I've compiled this year's final exam content for each of our 8 subjects so you all know what to revise on.

This exam is for students at the Al-Markaz ul Islamic Drummond Road campus, not Beckside Lane.

The Mudaaf & Mudaaf Ilayhi (مضاف + مضاف اليه)

30 SECOND OVERVIEW:
Possessed & Possessor*
  • The word Mudaaf comes from 'idaafa' (اضافه), Arabic for explaining the relationship between words.
  • A Mudaaf-Mudaaf Ilayhi phrase therefore explains whom or what owns/possesses the thing which is being owned.
  • Quick overview: Mudaaf means 'possessed', Mudaaf Ilayhi means 'possessor over it/of the Mudaaf'.
  • Both of these parts are always nouns. They are never verbs.
  • Coincidentally, 'izafa' is used in the Urdu language, which means to increase or enhance.
