The student: Ibn Aqil gave as an example: "every man and his garment."

The Shaykh : Yes
The student: And we understood that the intended meaning of the conjunction is that it is a ruling that he has dominion over it.

The Shaykh : But it is his garment, or otherwise his craft.
The student: ...

The Shaykh : Well, clothing, yes, but we said that if the norm is conjunction, then omission is preferred; if the conjunction is necessary, then omission is obligatory; and if it is this and that, then they are equal.

The student: Refer to ...

The Shaykh : Refer to it, may Allah reward you, in *Awadh al-Masalik*. I have not referred to it, you see; my explanation now is based on previous understanding, but you should refer to *Awadh al-Masalik*.
The student: If it were said, "And as an example, by the oath of Allah, I will certainly do it," the implied meaning is "By Allah, I swear," and it is not necessary that the omitted part be a predicate, because it is permissible for it to be a subject, and the implied meaning is "I swear by the oath," unlike "By 'Amr," where the omitted part with it is ...

The Shaykh : Correct, it is known, because of the presence of the lam, it is known.
