Saying “It rained with such-and-such a star” while treating the preposition “ba” as a circumstantial marker
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, I have chosen to fast on the day of the slaughter. Is it permissible for a person to say, “It rained with such-and-such a star,” if he treats the preposition “ba” as a circumstantial marker?
Answer:
It does not become “al-‘almaa” in the sense of “in.” He says: If he intends this, he should say, “It rained in such-and-such a star,” meaning in such-and-such a time. It rained in the summer, it rained in the winter. He should use “in,” not “al-‘almaa.” Yes.
