Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Allah the Exalted said: What do you say, Ya Nasr, my Lord? Is it a noun or not? What is the sign of the noun in it?
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : No, it does not have the genitive case.
The student: The kasrah.
The Shaykh : It does not have a kasrah.
The student: The oath.
The Shaykh : The entry of the particle of oath upon it, and that is His saying: All right, [Az-Zumar 39:37] ... What do you say about "Aziz" (Mighty)?
The student: A noun.
The Shaykh : Name
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : And what signs of the noun does it have?
The student: The entry of the ba. The ba is a particle of the genitive case.
The Shaykh : The entry of the particle of the genitive case, that is one.
The student: And the genitive case and the tanwin.
The Shaykh : And the genitive case and the tanwin, that makes three. All right, who among the particles of the genitive case and what do they mean, Ya 'Abd al-Mannan?
The student: They come for the beginning.
The Shaykh : They come for the beginning, that is enough. We mentioned to you yesterday ... until.
The student: "Ila" (until) is a particle of the genitive case.
The Shaykh : A particle of the genitive case, and what does it mean?
The student: ... The end.
The Shaykh : The end. All right, give an example.
The student: I arrived in Madinah.
The Shaykh : You arrived in Madinah or you went to Madinah, correct? They are all the same. You arrived at it or you went to it. All right, this is one. "Rabb" (Lord), guidance of Allah.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : What is its example?
The student: ... Or the sayings of the grammarians.
The Shaykh : The sayings of the grammarians.
The student: "Rabb," the cold came, and "Rabb" men who die.
The Shaykh : What?
The student: The cold came, and "Rabb" men who die.
The Shaykh : "Rabb" men who die from the cold, is that right? All right, "rijal" (men), what is this?
The student: A noun.
The Shaykh : A noun. And what signs of the noun does it have?
The student: The tanwin and the genitive case.
The Shaykh : The tanwin and the genitive case.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : All right, and other than that?
The student: And the entry of the particle of the genitive case upon it.
The Shaykh : And the entry of the particle of the genitive case upon it. Well done. All right, may Allah bless you. All right, Ya Nasr, the kaf is from the particles of the genitive case. What does it mean?
The student: Comparison.
The Shaykh : Comparison. Give it to me, apply it to a word.
The student: I saw a man like a lion.
The Shaykh : "Like a lion." Is "al-asad" (the lion) a noun, a verb, or a particle?
The student: A noun.
The Shaykh : A noun. And what signs of the noun does it have?
The student: The entry of the particle of the genitive case upon it.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: The entry of the particle of the genitive case upon it.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : Yes, and what comes after?
The student: And alif and lam.
The Shaykh : And alif and lam, correct, everyone. All right, the lam is from the particles of the genitive case. Give an example.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : What? No, this is a particle of oath. The lam "Allah." The word "Allah" is a noun. What signs of the noun does it have?
The student: The tanwin.
The Shaykh : Where is the tanwin?! "Allah" does not have a tanwin.
The student: The genitive case.
The Shaykh : The genitive case, yes.
The student: The entry of the particle of the genitive case.
The Shaykh : And the entry of the particle of the genitive case, which is the lam. All right, and the third? Or is there no third? Is there no third? What do you say, is there no third? Alif and lam. The entry of alif and lam upon "Allah." All right, the entry of alif and lam. The entry of alif and lam. They say alif and lam are solar and lunar. Either solar or lunar. If it is assimilated with what follows it, it is solar. If it is pronounced clearly, it is lunar. Because you say "al-shams" (the sun), "al-qamar" (the moon). "Al-shams," "al-qamar." You find that the "al" in "al-shams" is assimilated with the shin. It is not correct to say "al-shams" with a clear lam. And you find the lam in "al-qamar" is pronounced clearly, not assimilated. Therefore, it is not correct to say "al-qamar" as you say "al-shams." "Al-qamar" is not correct, "al-shams" is correct. All right, "al-shams" is not correct, "al-qamar" is correct.
So "al" is solar and lunar. If it is assimilated with what follows it, it is solar. If it is pronounced clearly, it is lunar. We said solar because its origin is from "al-shams" (the sun), meaning the origin they established as the standard in this is "al-shams." And lunar because the origin they established in this is "al-qamar" (the moon). All right.
: Then he said: "And the verb is known by qad, the sin, and sawfa, and the quiescent taa of femininity" Four signs. Ah.
The student: The lam ... .
The Shaykh : How the lam?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Yes, all right. The lam is for possession. The lam is for possession, like "To Allah belongs the dominion." "The money belongs to Zayd." This is also possession. All right, and it has other meanings, but we do not mention them because here now it is for the beginning.
Say: Yes, by my Lord, you will certainly be resurrected.
قل بلى وربي لتبعثنThe student: ... .
The Shaykh : No, it does not have the genitive case.
The student: The kasrah.
The Shaykh : It does not have a kasrah.
The student: The oath.
The Shaykh : The entry of the particle of oath upon it, and that is His saying:
And by my Lord
وربيIs not Allah Exalted in Might

The Shaykh : Name
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : And what signs of the noun does it have?

The Shaykh : They come for the beginning, that is enough. We mentioned to you yesterday ... until.
The student: "Ila" (until) is a particle of the genitive case.
The Shaykh : A particle of the genitive case, and what does it mean?

The student: "Rabb," the cold came, and "Rabb" men who die.
The Shaykh : What?
The student: The cold came, and "Rabb" men who die.
The Shaykh : "Rabb" men who die from the cold, is that right? All right, "rijal" (men), what is this?
The student: A noun.
The Shaykh : A noun. And what signs of the noun does it have?
The student: The tanwin and the genitive case.
The Shaykh : The tanwin and the genitive case.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : All right, and other than that?
The student: And the entry of the particle of the genitive case upon it.
The Shaykh : And the entry of the particle of the genitive case upon it. Well done. All right, may Allah bless you. All right, Ya Nasr, the kaf is from the particles of the genitive case. What does it mean?

The student: And alif and lam.
The Shaykh : And alif and lam, correct, everyone. All right, the lam is from the particles of the genitive case. Give an example.
The student: ... .

To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth
لله ملك السموات والأرضThe student: The tanwin.
The Shaykh : Where is the tanwin?! "Allah" does not have a tanwin.
The student: The genitive case.
The Shaykh : The genitive case, yes.
The student: The entry of the particle of the genitive case.
The Shaykh : And the entry of the particle of the genitive case, which is the lam. All right, and the third? Or is there no third? Is there no third? What do you say, is there no third? Alif and lam. The entry of alif and lam upon "Allah." All right, the entry of alif and lam. The entry of alif and lam. They say alif and lam are solar and lunar. Either solar or lunar. If it is assimilated with what follows it, it is solar. If it is pronounced clearly, it is lunar. Because you say "al-shams" (the sun), "al-qamar" (the moon). "Al-shams," "al-qamar." You find that the "al" in "al-shams" is assimilated with the shin. It is not correct to say "al-shams" with a clear lam. And you find the lam in "al-qamar" is pronounced clearly, not assimilated. Therefore, it is not correct to say "al-qamar" as you say "al-shams." "Al-qamar" is not correct, "al-shams" is correct. All right, "al-shams" is not correct, "al-qamar" is correct.
So "al" is solar and lunar. If it is assimilated with what follows it, it is solar. If it is pronounced clearly, it is lunar. We said solar because its origin is from "al-shams" (the sun), meaning the origin they established as the standard in this is "al-shams." And lunar because the origin they established in this is "al-qamar" (the moon). All right.
