The reader: " And by it, one reaches wonder *** To the one who, by it, reaches the superlative.
It was mentioned earlier in the chapter on wonder that one reaches wonder from verbs that have not fulfilled the conditions by using 'ashadd' (intense) and the like. Here, it is indicated that one reaches the superlative from verbs that have not fulfilled the conditions by using what is used to reach wonder. Just as you say, 'How intense his extraction is,' you say, 'He is more intense in extraction than Zayd.' And just as you say, 'How intense his redness is,' you say, 'He is more intense in redness than Zayd' .
The Shaykh : And he said, 'He is more intense?'
The student: It is written with an fathah!
The Shaykh : And what do you say?
The student: That it is nominative in its apparent form.
The Shaykh : And I consider it nominative with a dammah.
The student: And I consider it nominative.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The reader: " However, the verbal noun is in the accusative case in the chapter on wonder after 'ashadd' as a direct object, whereas here it is in the accusative case as a specifier (tamyiz)" .
The Shaykh : This is a benefit: that there, it is in the accusative case as a direct object: " How intense his redness is" . 'His redness' is the direct object of 'ashadd.' And here, it is in the accusative case as a specifier (tamyiz), because it came after the name of the superlative. Yes.
The student: He mentioned this specifier (tamyiz).
The Shaykh : Yes, he mentioned this specifier (tamyiz).
