The Shaykh :"The masdar is a noun other than time from *** the two meanings of the verb, like amn from aman" ...
"The masdar is a noun other than time from *** the two meanings of the verb"
When you say the verb: qama (he stood), it has two meanings, right?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Sitting as well?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : Because yajlis (he sits) indicates?
The student: The event.
The Shaykh : The event, which is sitting, and it indicates the future time. And based on this, infer the rest. So it is a noun for what is other than time. What is it that is other than time?
The student: The meaning.
The Shaykh : The event, or the meaning if you wish, from the two meanings of the verb. What is the example? So amn from aman. Aman amnan, aman amnan. This is the masdar. Now, al-amn: the masdar of aman, but here it is in the nominative case because it is a delayed subject. So the result is: the masdar is what the event indicated by the verb denotes. That is, it is the name for one of the two meanings of the verb, which is the event. You see, this is Ibn Malik's explanation, but with a clearer explanation, he says like what the author of al-Ajrumiyyah said: "It is what comes third in the conjugation of the verb" How does it come third in the conjugation of the verb? Qama, yaqum?
The student: Qiyaman.
The Shaykh : Jala, yajlis?
The student: Jalsan.
The Shaykh : Jalsan. It comes as the third. Like this, Ghannam?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Hmm, qa'a, yaq'u?
The student: Qawdan.
The Shaykh : Qawdan. What comes third in the conjugation of the verb is the masdar. I think this is clear... Yes, very clear... Absolutely. Qama, yaqum, qiyaman. Akala, ya'kulu, akalan. And based on this, infer the rest. As for Ibn Malik, he says: a noun for what is other than time from the two meanings of the verb. Clear?
The student: Not clear, we need an example.
The Shaykh : Like amn from aman. Now, the question is: is it the origin of the verb? Or is the verb its origin? The author says: "And its being the origin for these two was chosen"
