The Shaykh :"And if it is like shiyyah, the fa' is missing *** then restore it and open its 'ayn, that is what you must do"
And if it is like shiyyah, what is shiyyah?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : It means if it is a triliteral word "like shiyyah, the fa' is missing"
The fa' is missing, what does "the fa' is missing" mean?
The student: It was deleted.
The Shaykh : It means its fa' has been deleted. You know that every word has a fa', an 'ayn, and a lam. In shiyyah, the fa' is deleted, the 'ayn is present, and the lam is present. Where is the 'ayn?
The student: The shīn.
The Shaykh : And the lam?
The student: The ya.
The Shaykh : The yā', and the deleted letter is the fa', and its original form is wāw because it is from washī, washī with a kasrah. If it is of this type, like shiyyah and like 'iddah, 'iddah has a deleted fa' because it is derived from wa'd, so it is wa'dah. He says:
"the fa' is missing *** then restore it and open its 'ayn, that is what you must do"
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Huh?
The student: ...
The Shaykh :"the fa' is missing *** then restore it and open its 'ayn, that is what you must do"
What is the meaning of restoration (jibr)? Restoration in this context means returning the deleted letter. This is restoration in the chapter of grammar, not the restoration in the chapter of exception. Restoration in the case of a broken arm means it becomes straight again, and restoration in the chapter of... and this restoration in grammar, what is it?
The student: Returning the deleted letter.
The Shaykh : Returning the deleted letter. If it is like shiyyah, he says:
"then restore it and open its 'ayn, that is what you must do"
There are now two changes, what are they?
The student: Opening the 'ayn and returning the fa'.
The Shaykh : Opening the 'ayn and returning the fa', and opening?
The student: The 'ayn.
The Shaykh : And opening the 'ayn, so what do we say regarding shiyyah?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Yashawī, ... and opening its 'ayn, returning the fa' and the fa' is open, returning the fa' and opening the 'ayn, so you say regarding it yashawī, yashawī.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Yes?
The student: The yā'?
The Shaykh : Which one?
The student: Where is the yā'?
The Shaykh : The yā' was converted to a wāw, yashawī. 'Iddah becomes a triliteral if its fa' is deleted. According to the author, if its fa' is deleted, two things are obligatory in it: returning the fa' and the second?
The student: Opening the 'ayn.
The Shaykh : Opening the 'ayn. Okay, the original of 'iddah is wa'dah, so what do we say?
The student: Wa'dī.
The Shaykh : Wa'dī, wa'dī. We must open the 'ayn and break the dāl for the sake of the yā' of attribution... the original is broken, and the author mentioned only two things, which are: returning the deleted letter and opening the 'ayn.
And if it is like shiyyah, what is shiyyah?
