The Shaykh : The author said: "And it may be added as a necessary part", "and out of necessity", "and for the sake of the poem":
"It may be added" means that the definite article may be added as a necessary part, meaning a necessary addition that is indispensable, so that it becomes part of the word's structure, such as *al-laat*, which is a relative pronoun.
"And *al-ana*": refers to the present time.
"And *al-ladhina*": is a relative pronoun for a group of males.
"Then *al-laat*": is the name of a well-known idol for the Quraysh. The *lam* in these examples cannot be dropped under any circumstances, why? Because it is part of the word's structure, so it is not possible to say, regarding *al-laat* which is a relative pronoun for a group of females, it is not possible to say: *ja'a lat qamna* (came *lat* who stood), *ja'a lat qumna* (came *lat* who stood), it is not possible.
And it is not possible to say: *hadara Zayd lan*, meaning: now.
Likewise, it is not possible to say: *ja'a ladhina qamū* (came *ladhina* who stood), because *al* here is part of the word's structure, so its addition is necessary.
