The Shaykh :" As for the kasrah, it is the marker of the genitive case in three places: in the singular noun that is declinable " — Pay attention, my son — the dammah is the marker of the nominative case in the singular noun, and he did not say "declinable"; the fathah is the marker of the accusative case in the singular noun, and he did not say "declinable." The genitive case, the kasrah, is the marker of the genitive in three places: in the singular noun that is declinable. A condition has appeared here; what is this new condition? "Declinable." Because singular nouns are of two types: some are declinable and some are not. The declinable noun is the one free from the causes that prevent declension. The declinable noun is the one free from the causes that prevent declension, and it is the one that takes tanwin. It takes tanwin, like Zaydun, 'Umarun, rajulun, Khalidun, masjidun, darun, and the like. Good. So, declinable means free from the preventers of declension, meaning it takes tanwin. It takes tanwin. For this reason, Ibn Malik said:
" Declension is tanwin, which comes to clarify *** The meaning, by which the noun becomes more secure "
Declension is tanwin. Good. This is the declinable noun. And what is an example of a declinable noun? Zaydun, 'Umarun, Bakrun, Khalidun, and so on; there are many. And by his saying "declinable," he excluded the singular noun that is not declinable. The one that is not declinable, and we will discuss it later, if Allah wills. But let us take an example from it, like 'Umar. 'Umar and Ahmad. 'Umar and Ahmad. You say: "I passed by Ahmadin." This is incorrect, because this noun is not declinable, and the kasrah is not the marker of the genitive except in the singular noun that is what? Declinable. "I passed by 'Umarin" is incorrect, because it is a noun that is not declinable. It is impossible to put it in the genitive with the kasrah, ever. Good. The second: the broken plural that is declinable. He also brought this condition, which is "declinable," because broken plurals are of two types: some are declinable and some are not. Is that right? The declinable ones are like rijal, jibal, asjar, anhar, rimal. There are many, very many. The non-declinable ones are like manafi', masajid, masabih. And there are many. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Mulk 67:5] with masabih

The Shaykh : Why was it not put in the genitive with one of the letters of the genitive? Because it is a noun that is not declinable. A noun that is not declinable, so it is not put in the genitive with the kasrah. Is that right or not? Good. "I passed by rijalin."

" and the sound feminine plural " The sound feminine plural. And he did not say "declinable," because the entire sound feminine plural is declinable. It is all declinable. There is no difference between men and women; it is necessary that women be declinable just as men are. Yes. So, why did the author not restrict the sound feminine plural to "declinable"?
