A reading from Ibn 'Aqil's commentary (may Allah have mercy on him): from his statement, with the Shaykh's commentary on it: "
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: " The author mentioned that the sign of the descriptive adjective (sifat mushabbahah) is the permissibility of making its subject genitive with it, such as 'the beauty of the face,' 'the eloquence of the tongue,' and 'the purity of the heart.' The original form is: 'his face is beautiful,' 'his tongue is eloquent,' and 'his heart is pure.' So, his face is raised by 'beautiful' as a subject, his tongue is raised by 'eloquent,' and his heart is raised by 'pure.' This is not permissible with other adjectives. So you do not say: 'Zayd, the father's striker, 'Amr,' meaning 'his father struck 'Amr,' nor 'Zayd, the father's stander, tomorrow,' meaning 'Zayd, his father stands tomorrow.' It has been mentioned previously that the passive participle (ism al-maf'ul) is permissible to be made genitive with its subject, so you say: 'Zayd, the father's struck one,' and in that case, it follows the course of the descriptive adjective ".
The Shaykh : Is it clear now? The active participle (ism al-fa'il) cannot make its subject genitive. It cannot, so you do not say: 'Zayd, the father's striker, 'Amr.' Yes, why? Why? Because it does not operate on it, because it does not make its subject genitive with it. How do I say if I want to inform you that Zayd's father struck 'Amr? We say: 'Zayd, his father struck 'Amr.' Did you understand? Good. It was mentioned to us previously that the passive participle (ism al-maf'ul) may be made genitive with its subject, like 'the pious one whose intentions are praiseworthy,' or not? Did it not pass through our discussion of the author's words:
" And this may be made genitive with a raised noun "
And we said previously that this is an exception to his statement:
" And everything established for the active participle is given to the passive participle " and ...
" And everything established for the active participle *** is given to the passive participle ".
The student: " Without differentiation ".
The Shaykh :" Without differentiation ".
And the author made an exception from it:
" And this may be made genitive with a raised noun in meaning "
Unlike the active participle
" Like the pious one whose intentions are praiseworthy " Yes.
