The questioner : O Shaykh! What is the difference between the two examples?
The Shaykh : If he says: "Zayd, I hit him."
The questioner : Ah!
The Shaykh : Two options are permissible in this case: the nominative case, which is better, and the accusative case. However, if he says: "Zayd, I hit," the accusative case is obligatory, because the verb did not take its object with it.
