Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
BTW - the faa'il in a sentence is always an ism - because only things can do actions.
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
Sarf is the Arabic word for the study of morphology in linguistics … Morphology (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In it we study the root and other morphemes. It is easier than it seems … especially in Arabic - Question 2 that I asked earlier - gives the basic overview of this area.
Ma’rifa and Nakira (Definite and Indefinite) are always applied on asma (nouns) and based on their sign ('iraab) we can detect the meaning they hold independently of any given sentence. This area does not give meanings of words in complete sentences, but rather explains how words rather morphemes (which includes more than just words) are classified. This area also deals in patterns of arrangement that give indication of how those words could add value to meaning if used in a sentence. This is termed the ‘clothing’ of the words.

Who is confused?
Well since this is a video thread ... Let me bring something else inshaAllah
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
the bold is clearly understood alhamdulilah..nice explanation mashaAllah wa tabarakAllah…allahuma zid fazid ameen
just give me an example of this…
mashaAllah wa tabrakaAllah…
not confused but have to study properly…as i took three lectures so its not getting difficult to understand alhamdulilah…
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
hamzatul wasli i guess read and pronounced in every condition whether sentence starts with it or its between the sentence or word (i think)
but hamza tul qatai like i cannot explain but by example i might tell you
وَالَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكَ وَمَا** أُنزِلَ** مِن قَبْلِكَ وَبِالْآخِرَةِ هُمْ يُوقِنُونَ ﴿٤](Tanzil - Quran Navigator | القرآن الكريم)﴾
الَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْغَيْبِ وَيُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ ﴿٣](Tanzil - Quran Navigator | القرآن الكريم)﴾
like if we stop at the ayah when we start the ayat now we read hamza tul qatai otherwise it get mix with the word and we don’t read it…
the red is hamza tul qatai
and the green is hamza tul wasli
right?
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
To add
the subject and object are both different nouns - (asma)
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
Umm … it is the other way round. Wasl will allow idghaam of the previous letter to the next letter (either side of the hamza) so long as the next letter is from the haroof-u-Shamsiyya. (sun letters).
There is more to say here, but may be next time
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
@psyah i will see the video later inshaAllah…yes i rem shamsiya and qamaria letters..ad duha (hamza tul wasl) and al baqarah (hamza tul qata) are example of both if i am not mistaken…
mein ney ulta batadiya sorry…
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
Sister Tahurra
Not quite … I’m sorry … The hamza in Al (The) the definite article - is always hamzatul wasli … also in the ibn (son) … but the 4th form of verbs known as Baab mazeed if’aal - they are always started with a hamzatul qat’i - there are other places for qat’i too.

Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
From sarf we learn there is the ism, f'il and harf ... likewise, in nahuw we learn there is the Jumla and Shibhu jumla ... these translate to sentence and word phrase/psuedo-sentence.
Unlike in English or Urdu where we express the word "is" or "are" or "am" in nominal sentences, in Arabic these are not present as separate words. Rather the combination of words and their utterance gives away what meaning is being held by them. Due to this Arabic has a very simple sentence structure where a complete sentence can be expressed in two or even one word.

Now tell me what is sarf ?
And nahuw
Not familiar with these terms
Well I should start listening lecture again i stopped at 4th...then i will ask questions inshaAllah..may Allah increase you in knowledge and amal Ameen
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
Sister Tahurra ...
In basic explanation ... sarf is the study of word formation, conjugation and inflection in Arabic and nahuw is the study of sentence structure and meaning and they are the two main areas of Arabic grammar.
For example - in sarf we know that asma can take tanween and occupy any state with rafa, nasb or jarr ... it is only when the words are arranged can we say something about their relationship with each other - that is nahuw. Two nouns together both in rafa state can either be:
N'aat Man'oot (Sifa Mawsoof) or Mubtada Khabar and further clues should highlight which is which. Usually it is taken as Sifa Mawsoof only when all four indicators are the same between the two nouns.

jazakAllah khair
four indicators meaning any example?
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
jazakAllah khair

BarakAllahuFiki
As in question 2 earlier ... Nouns in Arabic take four values and they each indicate what function that noun is holding in the sentence.
Nouns will be in a given
1) kind: rafa, nasb or jarr
2) state: ma'rifa or nakira
3) number: mufrad, muthanna, jam'a
4) gender: mu'annis and muzakkar
For example I'm going to write two similar phrases below - if you can tell me what they translate to and why - have a go - and then we can analyse the difference.
المنديل نذيف
المنديل النذيف
If you can try to put all of the haraka, (tashkeel) on all the letters that will help also. Note: You may need to copy paste in Word to see the words better.
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
Assalamualaikum
Here you are brother
Well i read my noted stuff..before doing it…
What is the meaning of nazeef?i got the meaning of mindeel in my notes…mere khyal se nazeef meaning old?
Rest these four things i read in class and later on these things became complex..i left the class then
but i can tell you
المنديل
kind :rafa
State: ma’rifa
Number:wahid
Gender: muzzakar
نذيف
kind :rafa
State: nakira
Number:wahid
Gender: muzzakar
النذيف
kind :rafa
State: marifa
Number:wahid
Gender: muzzakar
Correct me if i am wrong?
May Allah bless you and your family Ameen
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
MashaAllah … that is good, you have put the tashkeel in the right places and you have broken down the sarf correctly, you remembered to include the tashdeed (shaddah) on the harf shamseeya too.
Nadzeef means clean by the way
But this is only part of the earlier request … to complete the task … Can you translate the whole expression in both cases? - so not a word by word breakdown, because the word by word breakdown will not give us anything for the nahuw - i.e. the relationship between the words and the meaning of the expression or sentence as a whole.
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
ok jazakumAllah khair brother…
but i guess its **نظیف **i was searching for this clean in Arabic found this..just make sure
ok here i try…
المنديل نذيف
The handkerchief is clean
المنديل النذيف
The handkerchief is the clean
correct me!
and also sharing this paper…got it from class i was taking..
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
Jazakillahu khair Sister Tahurra
Yes I made a mistake between dhal and dhaw … it is نظیف that I meant.
The first translation is correct. “The hankerchief is clean”, but the second translation is not correct. There is no “is” in that translation … It should be translated as:
The clean hankerchief
As you can see the first one makes a sentence but the second one make a word phrase … like the title of a book or a story. The clue that gives away whether it is Jumla Ismiyya or Shibu Jumla is by looking at the word construction. Of course the difference is ال in the second. It shows where all four attributes of the noun are the same and the words are together then it means they are na’at man’oot i.e. sifa mau’soof or the noun and it’s corresponding adjective.
Re: Learn Arabic Grammar !
It’s نظيف
The second is ’ The clean handkerchief/tissue’
