Three Kinds of Words in Arabic
Ism
– A person, place, thing, idea, adjective, adverb or more.
F’il
– A word that has a tense, e.g. to read.
Harf – A word that makes no sense unless there is a word after it.

Properties of the Ism
Status
-
The role of the word in the sentence.
3 types of status: Doer
- oo / un
-
(Subject)
Detail
-
- aa / an
-
- ee / in
(Object)
After ‘of’ (Possesive)
He ate his lunch quickly outside yesterday.
(i.e .Lunch of his)
Our parents will pray for our success. In English the person mentioned first is the ‘Doer’, e.g. I chased th e cat. In Arabic this is not not the case.
Arabic uses Singular (1) Dual (2) and Plural (3+). The ending sound will change into an ending combination when in Dual or Plural form.
You can tell status by: 1. Ending sounds
–
2. Ending Combinations -
Single harakah or tanween added to the end of a singular word, e.g. A few letters added to the end of the word e.g.
(R )
3. Plural Combinations –
(N/J)
Only used for something that thinks e.g. Humans, Angels, Jinn e.g.
(R )
(N/J)

Muslim Chart
Feminine Plural Combinations
When a word is feminine a
is usually added to the end, followed by the relevant status ending ending sound.
When a word is feminine plural the ending combination is
(R ) or
(N/J).
Be careful not to translate these as ending sounds. If you see ‘
‘ at the beginning of a word, it will not have tanween.
Light and Heavy
Properties of the Ism
All the words in the ‘Muslim chart’ are considered heavy. T hey all have an ‘n’ sound either because they end with a ‘
‘ or tanween.
To make a word light, whether masculine or feminine, the extra ‘n’ sound is removed. E.g.
Note the difference between
–
and
-
becomes
.
Normally a word should have a ‘heavy’ status. Light Isms are suspicious. If a word is light there needs to be a reason. An Ism that becomes light does not have its properties affected.
4 reason a word can be light: 1. Partly flexible e.g. 2. When it is a Mudhaf e.g. 3. If it is part of a Categorical negation (
i.e.’ Absolute No’ . E.g.
4. An Ism is light if it is being called e.g.
2
Flexibility
Properties of the Ism
The flexibility of a word refers to whether it can change its appearance according to its status e.g. all the words in the Muslim chart are fully flexible. 3 types of Flexibility:
1. Fully Flexible
-
Show all statuses i.e. can have R/N/J endings; Light or Heavy
Most isms
Arab names structure
Only four of the Prophets were Arabs;
2. Partly Flexible -
The N/J versions look the same; Always Light; Cannot take a kasra. e.g. Places
Non Arab names except 3 Letter place name exception, and 3 letter names
-
(N/J).
with
3. Non-flexible
(R )
in the midlle, e.g.
.
Colours (M/F)
Despite status, these words do not change.
Words that end with ‘alif’ behave like this. E.g.
e.g.
e.g
Number
or
Properties of the Ism
Isms have number. This means they can be one of the following;
Singular
Dual People Plural
Feminine Plural
Human Broken Plural
Non-Human Broken Plural
A Broken plural is a word that in its plural form doesn’t end with a plural ending combination
and
.
In English we have Book, Books vs Mouse, Mice. Since human and non-human broken plurals end in ending sounds, the only way to know what it ’s number is, is to know the meaning of the word.
3
Rule of thumb: Remember when deciphering a word’s number check for ending combinations first. EC: Dual, Fem and People Plural.
ES: Singular, Human and Non-human Broken plural. Plural?
Human?
Broken Plural? S, Fem or Based on trans
Non - Human?
Regular Plural? Based on trans
S, Fem e.g.
e.g.
e.g.
Fatima bought four books. She read each of ‘her ‘ her ’ quickly
translates as singular, but grammatically treated as plural because it represents a group of people. E.g. E.g.
nati nation on,,
nati nation on/p /peo eopl ple, e,
gene genera rati tion on/c /cen entu tury ry..
Gender
Properties of the Ism
In English we say something is a ‘he’, ‘she’ or ‘it’. In Arabic ‘it’ doesn’t exist. Everything is ‘he’ or ‘she’. Which
one do you use? use?
Rule of thumb: Pretend all words are masculine unless you find the clues to make a word feminine.
There are two types of Feminine in Arabic. 1. Real Feminine - e.g. Sister, Mother, Daughter 2. Fake Feminine a. Words that end with
(except men’s names)
b. Broken Plurals (NHBP always, HBP Sometimes) c. Feminine ‘because the Arabs said so ’ (BASS) (
)
d. Human body parts in pairs e. Proper names of places

Type
Properties of the Ism
A word’s type is either Proper P roper (A Chair) or Common (The Chair). Everything is common unless proven pro per.
7 proper Isms:
1. Proper Names 2. Pronouns (
) e.g.
3. Pointers (
) e.g.
4. The One being called 5. Words that have ‘ 6.
e.g.
7. If the word after ‘of’ is proper, the word before it is proper
Fragments
A phrase is more than two words. There are 2 types of phrases: 1. Sentences 2. Fragments
-
complete ideas e.g. I am a teacher. more than a word less than a sentence e.g. My marker....
Mawoof/Sifah
Idhaafah
Harf of jar
Harf of nasb
Pointers with

Fragment is a noun-adjective fragment. In Arabic adjectives are part of Isms, they also have 4
properties. When both noun and adjective match in all 4 properties, it is called

Rules:
The adjective comes after the noun. Properties match
There may be multiple
Can tolerate long distance
.
NHBP = F,S. So when a broken plural is given an adjective, adjective, you must give them an adjective as though you are giving it to a girl. e.g.
Raf, Singular, Masculine, Common
Raf, Singular, Masculine, Common
Adjective Noun A Clever Muslim

Idaafah
Fragment
An idaafah is a fragment which brings two isms togeth er with the word ‘of’ in between them, e.g. Something of Someone’s. e.g. The House of Allah, or His house (i.e. house o f his). Idhaafah has two parts
(The word Allah) and

Pronouns & Idhaafah
Pronouns can be stuck at the end of an ism, F’il or Harf – BUT you only call them
when they are attached to an ism.

Sentences
There are 2 kinds of sentence: 1. Ism based/ Nominal -
and 2. F’il based / Verbal -
Invisible ‘is’ in the
A simple
has the word ‘is’ in it. This does not exist in Arabic, but is implied. In understanding Ism
based sentences, we must find the invisible ‘is’.
You can do this by: 1. Proper followed by common: 2. Right after Harf of Nasb and Mansoob:
Allah IS greater and
3. Independant pronouns are followed with is, is, as opposed to just he: 4. Pointers and no ‘

The mubtada and the khabar should be compatible in gender and number (If the plural is an intelligent being). If the mubtada comes after the khabr, the reason will be for either emphasis, or exclusivity . For example, eid takbeer -

“The Muslim helped.”
Normal phrasing Only one doer
“The Muslim, he helped” or “It is infact the Muslim who helped!”
Abnormal phrasing Doer emphasised twice - once as ‘the muslim’ and then as ‘he’. It reiterates who the act is done by, when someone is confused about who did the act. It can indicate an emotionally charged context e.g. passion, anger, yelling depending on context.
In MSA the translation would be the same without the repeated pronoun.

Fi'l – Past Tense
A Fi’l word that has a tense, is stuck in time, it is not a verb as a verb does not contain the ‘doer’. In arabic every active fi’l comes with an inside pronoun

Forbidding & Commanding
Forbidding is used to prevent someone from carrying out an action. Given this, the following apply;
You cannot command/ forbid in the past tense.
You cannot command yourself.
You cannot command/ forbid someone who is not there.
A grammatical command isn’t always really a command. It could be a suggestion, motivation, sarcasm, permission, advice, request or imperative. E.g. “Should I buy this car” – “ Buy it”. Forbidding is easier than commanding.
+ 2nd person lightest
To forbid you;
1. Take the second person present tense verb 2. Make it 3. Put
infront of it
You hit!

Don’t hit!

1) Start with 2nd person. E.g
You help
2) Make it

4) Add helper alif if needed
i.e. if the word word cannot be read then add the alif.
If the third letter (starting with ) is: a. b. Other The commaning f’il may look like a past tense.
Most of the time when we make a dua to Allah we use the commanding or forbidding form, but we call it ‘request’ because we are addressing Allah swt. The one being ordered will be in the fil used.
Forbidding Vs Observation Statement/ Observation
“I noticed you don’t write books” .

Conditional statement
A conditional statement will start with one of the following: – if

It has 2 parts and can be defined as an ‘I f-Then’ statement. 1. The condition 2. The answer/ consequence of the condition
Both f’il parts are in the

Answering a Command / Forbidding
The consequence of a command (
) or forbidding is made
, to show its relationship to the
command.
Sometimes for flow, a word will not end with the sukoon. E.g.
Passive F’ils
Transitive f ’il -
– is a f’il that can take mafool bihi i.e it can be f ollowed ollowed by someone or something,
these can have a passive. Intransative f’il -
- is a f’il that cannot take mafool bihi i.e. it cannot be followed by ‘someone’ or
‘something’. These cannot have a passive.
He read
He read someone
He read something
He fell
He fell someone
He fell something
Active f’il - Doer is known e.g. "Yusuf "Yusuf ate ate the chocolate." chocolate." Passive f’il (
- When the fi’l is mentioned, but you don’t know who the doer is , instead the ‘done-to’ is known. E. E .g. "The chocolate was eaten”.
After the fil Fil stays singular Raf status
E.g.
You can make a word passive in English by adding words like “was “ was,” ,” “is “is being,” being,” etc, for example, “He “ He sees” sees” (active) becomes “He “He is being seen” seen” (passive).
20
In Arabic both the past and present tense have passive forms. In order to tell if a fil is active or passive we do the following: 1) Determine the tense of the fil.
Past tense f’il - the passive will have OO-EE sounds
Present tense f’il - the passive will have OO-AA sounds.
Word
Tense
Sound
Type
Translation
Past
OO-EE
Passive
"You were taught"
Present
OO-AA- EE
Active
"He teaches"
Present
OO-AA
Passive
"He is taught"
Present passives – you just need one ‘ OO’, and can have as many ‘ AA’s as you need. The last letter is off
limits. The ending will not change e.g.
Past Passive - ensure the second- last letter is ‘ EE,’ and the rest should all be ‘ OO.’ You can have as many ‘OO’s as you need, but you need one ‘EE’ .
OO--AA OO
