Continuation of the explanation of the author's (may Allah have mercy on him) statement: "… and the hidden pronouns are twelve, such as your saying: I struck, and we struck …"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"Such as your saying: I struck" is for the speaker; "we struck" is for the speaker who magnifies himself, or the speaker with someone else with him; "you struck" is for the male addressee; "you struck" is for the female addressee; "you two struck" is for the dual, whether they are male or female; "you struck" is for the group of males; "you struck" is for the group of females. Good.
As for "I struck," we say that the taa is the doer, built on dammah, in the position of nominative.
"We struck": we say that the nūn is the doer, built on sukūn, in the position of nominative.
"You struck": the taa is the doer, built on fathah, in the position of nominative.
"You struck": the taa is the doer, built on kasrah, in the position of nominative.
"You two struck" has two views. Some of the grammarians parse the taa, the mīm, and the alif all together, saying that "tama" is a hidden pronoun built on sukūn in the position of nominative. Others make the parsing on the taa only and consider the rest a marker, saying that in "you two struck," the taa is the doer, built on dammah in the position of nominative, and the mīm and alif are the markers of the dual.
"You struck" (plural males): we say in it what we said in "you two struck." Either the taa is the doer and the mīm is the marker of the male plural, or we say that "tam" is a tanween built on sukūn in the position of nominative.
"You struck" (plural females): we can say that the taa is the doer and the shaddah nūn is the marker of the female plural, or we say that "tan" all together is the doer. Good.
He says: "and he struck". "He struck" has no explicit pronoun here. "He struck" has no explicit pronoun, but we say that the pronoun is hidden. It is hidden by permission, estimated to be "he." "He struck" means he, whether he is a known man or an unknown man. We say "a known man struck" or "an unknown man struck." The important thing is that we say "struck" is a past tense verb and the doer is hidden by permission, estimated to be "he." Good.
He says "she struck." "She struck": "struck" is a past tense verb and the taa is the marker of femininity. Where is the doer? It is hidden by permission, estimated to be "she."
"They two struck": "struck" is a past tense verb and the alif is the doer, a dual pronoun built on sukūn in the position of nominative.
The author omitted "they two (females) struck." He should have mentioned it because, may Allah have mercy on him, he details things, making the male alone and the female alone. So he should have said "and they two (females) struck." We say in the parsing of "they two (females) struck": "struck" is a past tense verb, the taa is for femininity, and the alif is the doer, built on sukūn in the position of nominative. So the parsing of "they two (females) struck" does not differ from "they two (males) struck" except for the presence of the taa of femininity. Good.
"They struck" (males): we say "struck" is a past tense verb built on dammah due to its connection to the wāw of the group, and the wāw is the doer, built on sukūn in the position of nominative.
"They struck" (females), or rather "we struck." "They struck" (females).
The student: With the short form.
The Shaykh : "They struck" (females) with the short form, without an alif. This is for the group of females. So you say "struck" is a past tense verb built on sukūn due to its connection to a moving nominative pronoun, and the nūn is the doer for the group of females, built on sukūn in the position of nominative. Here.
The student: Built on fathah.
The Shaykh : "They struck" (females)? Yes, built on fathah. Yes, built on fathah in the position of nominative.
