Some grammarians say that an explicit noun conjoined to a noun in the genitive case with a preposition is not conjoined to an attached pronoun unless the preposition is repeated; how do we derive this from the verse?

The questioner : Some grammarians say that the conjoined noun to the noun

The Shaykh : He says that
The student: He says that

The Shaykh : that
The student: That.

The Shaykh : It continued that

The questioner : He says that

The Shaykh : Yes, indeed

The questioner : He says that an explicit noun conjoined to a noun in the genitive case with a preposition is not conjoined to it unless the preposition is repeated. This has passed us by tonight

The Shaykh : to the pronoun; it is not conjoined to an attached pronoun unless the preposition is repeated

The questioner : and the explicit noun

The Shaykh : Yes

The questioner : and the explicit noun

The Shaykh : is conjoined to it without repeating the preposition

The questioner : Now, how do we respond to them with his saying:
through whom you ask one another, and the wombs الذي تساءلون به والأرحام
[An-Nisa 4:1]


The Shaykh : Yes, that is right.

The questioner : on the reading of the genitive case

The Shaykh : Yes

The questioner : this would be anomalous

The Shaykh : They say that the correct opinion is the permissibility of conjoining to an attached pronoun in the genitive case without repeating the preposition; this is the correct view

The questioner : And as for the one who says this is anomalous

The Shaykh : Yes, we say: You are the one who is anomalous. How can the speech of Allah be anomalous?!

The questioner : He says it is according to the language of

The Shaykh : What language? Do you find anything more eloquent than the language of the Qur'an, in a clear Arabic tongue? Therefore, in reality, those who say that this is anomalous in the Noble Qur'an are to be feared for. Anomalous according to what? It is obligatory that you build your rules based on the Qur'an, not that the Qur'an is built based on the rules, because the Qur'an is Arabic,
and he disbelieved in it وكفر به
and what comes after? And al-Masjid al-Haram. The point is that it is not just one verse. If one of the poets, like Imru' al-Qays or someone else, said something like this, we would say it is anomalous, if it is true that the most common occurrence in the Arabic language is the repetition of the preposition, do you understand? Yes.
