The Shaykh :"And it is of two types: explicit and implied. The explicit is what was mentioned earlier", just as we said regarding the doer (fa'il) that it is of two types: explicit and implied. We say the same regarding the object (maf'ul bihi): that it is of two types: explicit and implied. The explicit is what is not a pronoun, and the pronoun is what is not explicit, meaning they are opposites. "So the explicit is what was mentioned earlier, and the implied is of two types: attached and detached. The attached are twelve, and the detached are likewise". So, regarding the object, are there signs for attached and detached? Yes, there are signs. The sign is: "If it is valid to begin with the pronoun, then it is detached. If it is valid to begin with it at the start of the speech, then it is detached. If it is not valid, then it is attached". This is the rule. If it is valid to place the pronoun at the beginning of the speech, is it?
The student: Detached.
The Shaykh : Yes? Detached. And if it is not valid, then it is attached, whether it is a nominative pronoun or an accusative pronoun. "Iyyaka" (you, accusative): is it detached or attached?
The student: Attached.
Another student: Detached.
The student: Attached.
The Shaykh : "La ilaha illa Allah" (There is no god but Allah). All of you recite al-Fatihah!
The student: Detached, detached!
The Shaykh : Yes? So is it detached or attached?
The student: Detached.
The Shaykh : Detached, because it comes at the beginning of the speech. But the letter "kaf" (you), the "kaf" alone, like: "So-and-so honors you". Does the "kaf" come at the beginning of the speech?
The student: No.
The Shaykh : No. If I said: "K yu'rimuka" (K honors you)? Is that valid or not valid?
The student: It is not permissible.
The Shaykh : It is not valid. So it is attached. Good: "Ana" (I), in the nominative pronouns: "Ana"?
The student: is connected.
Another student: Detached.
The Shaykh : Huh?
The student: Detached.
The Shaykh : Yes? Detached, attached!!?
The student: Detached!
The Shaykh : Good. Does it come at the beginning of the speech or not?
The student: It comes.
The Shaykh : You say: "Ana qayyum" (I am standing). The "ta" in "dhabbat" (I struck)?
The student: Attached.
The Shaykh : Attached, because it is not valid to begin with it. If I said: "T dhab?"
The student: It is not valid.
The Shaykh : It is not valid. Is that clear? This is the rule: "So what is valid to come at the beginning of the speech is detached, and what is not is attached".
The student: Detached.
The Shaykh : Yes? Detached. And if it is not valid, then it is attached, whether it is a nominative pronoun or an accusative pronoun. "Iyyaka" (you, accusative): is it detached or attached?
The student: Attached.
Another student: Detached.
The student: Attached.
The Shaykh : "La ilaha illa Allah" (There is no god but Allah). All of you recite al-Fatihah!
The student: Detached, detached!
The Shaykh : Yes?
You alone we worship
