The Quranic Arabic Corpus - Translation

ṣawāmiʿu](The Quranic Arabic Corpus - Word by Word Grammar, Syntax and Morphology of the Holy Quran) = Monasteries
biyaʿun= Church
ṣalawātun](The Quranic Arabic Corpus - Word by Word Grammar, Syntax and Morphology of the Holy Quran) = Synagogue

Interestingly, a Molvi saheb told this saying of the Prophet (not sure about authenticity) in presence of one of my lamboo cousin: All tall men lack wisdom except Omar (the second caliph).
