The questioner : What is the difference between *al-miqam* and *al-maqam*?
The Shaykh : *Al-miqam* is from the quadriliteral root, and *al-maqam* is from the triliteral root. One says *qama maqamah* or *aqama maqamah*. You say, "I appointed so-and-so in my place," and you say, "So-and-so took my place." Yes.
