The reader: "And he indicated by his saying: 'like a pure heart, a beautiful appearance' that the descriptive adjective, if it is derived from a triliteral verb, falls into two types: one of them is".
The Shaykh : One of them is.
The reader: "One of them is: what corresponds to the present tense, like 'pure heart,' and this is rare among them; and the second is: what does not correspond to it, which is the common case, like 'beautiful appearance,' 'good face,' and 'noble father'".

The reader: And if it is derived from a non-triliteral verb, it must correspond to the present tense, like 'eloquent tongue'
"And the action of the transitive active participle *** is attributed to it on the limit that has been defined"
