Explanation of the words of Ibn Malik (may Allah have mercy on him): "And it raises the subject of a verb that is hidden, *** like Zayd in the answer of one who recited"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then he said:
"And it raises the subject of a verb that is hidden, *** like Zayd in the answer of one who recited"
This was criticized lightly regarding the author. First, we parse "and it raises the subject of a verb". The subject: an object placed before the verb. The verb: a subject placed after. Hidden: the sentence is a description of the verb, because the sentence comes after an indefinite noun?
The student: Descriptions.
The Shaykh : Descriptions, and after definite nouns?
The student: Circumstances.
The Shaykh : Circumstances, "like Zayd in the answer of one who recited". A questioner asked you and said: Who recited? You say: Zayd. Zayd: this is the subject of a deleted verb, and the implied meaning is: Zayd recited, Zayd recited. If someone said: I want the implied meaning to be: Zayd is standing, so I make Zayd a beginning, not a subject, we say: this is possible, but it does not hold, because the original rule is that the answer matches?
The student: The question.
The Shaykh : The question, so he asks: Who recited? You say: Zayd recited, so the answer matches the question perfectly. So you say: Zayd, if a questioner asks you: Who recited today? You say: Zayd, meaning: Zayd recited. They say some of the annotators, and I am on the language of "the locusts ate me". If Ibn Malik had said:
"And it raises the subject of a verb that is deleted, *** like Zayd in the answer of one who fulfilled"
It would have been better, because the verb is not hidden; what is hidden are the pronouns. The verb is said to be deleted. It is in the accusative case by a deleted verb, not by a hidden verb. So if he had said: And it raises the subject of a verb that is deleted, and we hope that the brother Khalid is with us. What is your opinion?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : What did you say?
The student: Some of the annotators say if he had said "deleted" instead of "hidden," because the verb is not hidden.
The Shaykh : And only?
The student: And only it is deleted.
The Shaykh : It is deleted, correct. Like Zayd in the answer of one who fulfilled. So we say: since the matter is known to the grammarians, and Ibn Malik is not unaware of such things, his words must be understood in the known sense. And a person is human; sometimes the appropriate word escapes him, and the inappropriate word is used..., and this is something observed.
