The Shaykh :"And the one who says Wa'abdiya and Wa'abda *** is the one who, in the vocative, revealed the ya with sukun"
It has been established for us: How many linguistic variations are there in 'Abdi, which is attached to the first-person singular pronoun?
The student: Five.
The Shaykh : There are five linguistic variations. If the last letter is sound, we say there are two variations. According to the language of those who say 'Abdi with sukun, in the vocative it is permissible to say: Ya 'Abda, Wa 'Abdiya, Wa 'Abda, or Wa 'Abdiya, like Baf? Yes, let us explain what he said. What is the word we have originally, before the vocative?
The student: 'Abdi.
The Shaykh : 'Abdi with the ya. In the vocative, is it permissible for me to bring the alif of the vocative and delete the ya because it is static, or not?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : So what do I say?
The student: Wa 'Abda.
The Shaykh : Wa 'Abda. We say Wa 'Abda, and I delete the ya because it is static. It is also permissible for me to bring the alif of the vocative and the ya. If I keep it, I must move it with what suits the alif, which is?
The student: Wa 'Abdiya.
The Shaykh : The fatha. So I say Wa 'Abdiya. As for the other languages, they remain on their original form. They remain on their original form. In the language of 'Abdiya, what do I do?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Wa 'Abdiya. With the alif, I answer the alif of the vocative and leave the ya open (with fatha) as it is. And in the language of deleting the ya, what do I bring? Only the alif: Wa 'Abda. The only one in which both options are permissible is 'Abdi with the static ya. The reason for this is what I mentioned to you. What is the reason?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : That if we say Wa 'Abdiya, it means we kept the ya and brought the alif of the vocative, right?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : And we moved the ya with fatha?
The student: To suit the alif.
The Shaykh : To suit the alif. And if we say Wa 'Abda, Wa 'Abda, then we kept the ya static, right? So the alif came to it and said: I cannot coexist with you. You are static and I am static, and this is not possible. Two static letters cannot coexist; it means the cessation of action. Okay, what do we do?
The student: We delete one.
The Shaykh : We delete one so that the sukun is in only one letter. So we delete the ya. We delete the ya. If someone asks: Why do you delete the ya when it indicates the first-person singular pronoun, indicating the attachment? We say: After the vocative, the alif of the vocative indicates the vocative, so we delete it. There was no vocative before. Therefore, we delete the ya due to the meeting of two static letters. Okay, in the language of those who never bring the ya, just 'Abd, right?
The student: We add only the alif.
The Shaykh : And in the language of those who bring the ya with fatha as well?
The student: We add the alif.
The Shaykh : We add the alif and nothing changes.
The student: And in the language of deleting the ya, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : How?
The student: In the language of deleting the ya?
The Shaykh : With the alif...
The student: ...
The Shaykh : There is no ya, with the alif. There is no ya, with the alif. This is in the absolute usage in speech...
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Yes, it is not clear.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : No, no, it is a misconception. I understand this. I understand that the waw...
