Explanation of the author's (may Allah have mercy on him) statement: " . . .

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then the author (may Allah have mercy on him) said "in". He began now with the particles of jussive that put two verbs in the jussive mood. "in" is like "in Zayd stands, 'Amr stands". The first "stands" is in the jussive, and the second is also in the jussive. The first is called the verb of the condition, and the second is called the answer to the condition.
"In Zayd stands, 'Amr stands" is necessary. If I said "in Zayd stands, 'Amr stands" [with the second verb in the indicative], this would be an error or weak. If I said "in Zayd stands [indicative], 'Amr stands [jussive]," it is an error. If I said "in Zayd stands [indicative], 'Amr stands [indicative]," it is an error. So, "in Zayd stands, 'Amr stands."
Allah the Exalted said:
Whether one is rich or poor, Allah is more worthy of both إن يكن غنيا أو فقيرا فالله أولى بهما
[An-Nisa 4:135]
If he is rich
If good befalls you, it distresses them إن تصبك حسنة تسؤهم
[At-Tawbah 9:50]
The answer here is "it distresses them." He did not say "it distresses them" [with a shadda on the waw], he said "it distresses them." So the example—may Allah have mercy on you—is
If good befalls you, it distresses them إن تصبك حسنة تسؤهم
[At-Tawbah 9:50]
. This example, the second "in," he said "man" and "man."
The student: That which is

The Shaykh : Yes, "ma". "Ma" is also one of the particles of jussive that put two verbs in the jussive mood. Its example is:
And whatever good you do - Allah knows it. وما تفعلوا من خير يعلمه الله
[Al-Baqarah 2:197]
And whatever good you do - Allah knows it. وما تفعلوا من خير يعلمه الله
[Al-Baqarah 2:197]
What is the verb of the condition?
The student: You do.

The Shaykh : "You do," and it is in the jussive by the deletion of the nun. The answer to the condition is "He knows it," and it is in the jussive by sukun. Why was the first put in the jussive by the deletion of the nun? Because it is one of the five verbs. And the second by sukun because it is a present tense verb with nothing attached to its end.
"man" is also one of the particles of jussive that put two verbs in the jussive mood. Like His saying, the Exalted:
So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it, فمن يعمل مثقال ذرة خيرا يره
[Az-Zalzalah 99:7]
"works" is the verb of the condition, "he sees" is the answer to the condition. Good.
"Works": The verb of the condition is in the jussive by sukun.
"He sees": It is in the jussive by the deletion of the alif because it is defective with an alif, and the fatha before it is evidence for it. The haa is the object. Good.
Like it:
And whoever does an atom's weight of good. ومن يعمل ذرة خيرا
So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it, فمن يعمل مثقال ذرة خيرا يره
[Az-Zalzalah 99:7]
Like it. Good. And "man" and "ma."
"mahma". "Mahma" is also one of the particles of jussive that put two verbs in the jussive mood. The poet said:
"And whatever trait a man has, *** Even if he thinks it is hidden from people, He knows it". "And whatever trait" is the verb of the condition. "He knows it" is the answer to the condition. And the kasra was used on the final letter to accommodate the rhyme, meaning the end of the verse.
The student: "And whatever"
Another student: "And whatever is"

The Shaykh : Is.
The student: "And whatever trait a man has, *** He thinks it"

The Shaykh : And if he thinks it is hidden.
The student: "*** Even if he thinks it is hidden from people, He knows it"

The Shaykh : "He knows it." Complete. Good. "Mahma."
