The Shaykh : But is it an attached pronoun or a detached one?
The student: Attached.

It is a single form that does not change. This is the pronoun that is suitable for all types of grammatical cases: nominative, accusative, and genitive.
"Like 'a'rif' with us" is the genitive. "For we" is the accusative. "We attained" is the nominative. "The gift" completes the verse. And you say: "We stood up," where "we" is in the nominative case. And you say: "He honored us," where "us" is in the accusative case. And you say: "Pass by us," where "us" is in the genitive case. So "na" is an attached pronoun that is suitable for the nominative, accusative, and genitive.
