00:00:54 --> 00:00:57
			Welcome back to our class here on clear
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:57
			Arabic.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			A number of people have mentioned to me
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			that this, they found this class a little
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			bit difficult or cumbersome
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:07
			or frustrating, and I just want to remind
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			people that this class is for,
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			honestly, a specific group of students that I
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			have.
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			I've made it public so it's easier for
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			them to access.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			But also,
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			we have to begin to push ourselves. Like,
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:20
			nobody complains
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			about things that they're not so want to
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:23
			do.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			And religion
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			has always been
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:31
			maintained by working hard. Allah says about the
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			Quran,
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			Like, you have to make jihad on your
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:37
			soul
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			to engage the Quran.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			So don't get frustrated and and perhaps this
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:46
			is too advanced for you. That's fine. It's
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:46
			okay.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:50
			Feel free to study and get yourself strong
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			and then come back
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			but understand that this is for
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:56
			a specific group of students who have
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			religious vocation as one of their goals in
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:01
			life. May Allah make it easy for them.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			Last time we talked about Aljumlah tul Feria,
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			the first foundational
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:08
			sentence being the verb sentence because it starts
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			with the verb.
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			Now we're going to be talking about.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:19
			The noun sentence.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			Let's take
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:24
			a look at some of these examples here.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			Examples.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:36
			The
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			house
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			was wide.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:51
			The weather is moderate.
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			It's mild weather.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			The dust
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			has spread everywhere.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			The dirt has spread everywhere.
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			This is a word these these words you're
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			gonna use a lot in speaking
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:19
			as well as reading.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			Is the street.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:22
			Is is,
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			you know, it's it's clogged, it's crowded.
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			Right?
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:40
			That the path
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:41
			is
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:42
			constricted.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:47
			Which is a rat,
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			The rat is hid is hidden.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			Right? It's hidden from sight.
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58
			If you look at all of these sentences,
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:01
			you'll see that they begin with Alif Lam.
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:03
			Ipno Marik says
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			In alfiyat al Numeric.
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:11
			When Sayidna Imam Jamar Ad Din al Numeric,
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			when he talks about the signs of a
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:14
			noun, he says,
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			One of the signs of a noun is
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			aliflam.
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:40
			Whoever wants to, you know, identify
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:42
			liver as the liver
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			l. So the purpose of l here indicates
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:49
			a noun, but also when you wanna specify
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:50
			something.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:53
			And that's why usually when you introduce a
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:57
			noun initially, you would like it's it's best
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			to introduce it without aliflam.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			So you introduce it with tanween, which is
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:04
			going to be
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:04
			the,
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07
			of course, the indefinite article.
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			And then follow it up with the adiflim.
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:11
			So I could say to you like,
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			Although there are times
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:22
			where a sentence
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			can begin with a word that has aliflame
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:27
			because it's so obvious and it's so well
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:28
			known. For example,
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:37
			But usually, we introduce a topic with tanween
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:39
			and then we add alif and them.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			So So for example, said Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			ta'ala says in Surat Muzammil,
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			You see the second one?
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:12
			It's the same messenger,
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:16
			Musa alayhis salatu salam, but the introduction of
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			the noun idea starts with tanween.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			This is very important in composition.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			But here, what we're looking at is each
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:23
			one of these sentences
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			starts with.
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			The the the the the the. That means
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			that those words are nouns.
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:38
			Sayyidna Imam,
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:42
			ibn Malik in his Alfiya says that aliflam
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:44
			is the sign of a noun.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:58
			The writers write that each one of these
		
00:06:58 --> 00:06:59
			examples, these previous examples,
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:01
			all of them
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:03
			are beneficial
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:05
			complete sentences.
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:26
			They say that in the previous examples,
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:30
			all of them are complete sentences, and each
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:30
			one of them
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:33
			consist or is constructed
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:35
			from 2 nouns.
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:42
			First
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:44
			is The first noun is
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:45
			the So
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:47
			is
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:48
			the
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:49
			is the is the is the is the
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:50
			is the
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:52
			is the
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:53
			is
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:54
			the
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:55
			is
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:57
			the is a
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:58
			is a
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:03
			is
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:04
			a
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			And the second word is what's called
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:07
			the.
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			What informs us about the.
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:17
			And also this becomes very important because
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:18
			the is
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22
			and usually the is the
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			So.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			Right? So pork is what? Haram. So you
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			see here the purpose of the haber
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:31
			is to
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			inform you about the to
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:36
			tell you about it either through
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			we'll talk about that later, the different type
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			of relationships that come between them.
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:43
			Then both writers say,
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:02
			Because each one of these sentences
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:05
			starts with a noun,
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			these sentences are called
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:09
			noun
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:10
			sentences.
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:14
			Here's the rule.
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:36
			You can say like
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:41
			So any sentence
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:43
			which is constructed
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:44
			with a and
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:45
			a,
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:48
			it is called a noun sentence. Remember that.
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:51
			Is is a noun.
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:53
			Is a noun.
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:58
			Here are our drills now.
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			The first
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:19
			Say,
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:21
			compose
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:23
			a noun sentence
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:24
			by placing
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:27
			after these.
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:31
			So
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:32
			the day tree.
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:39
			The school is open.
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			The
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:42
			the
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:45
			the the garment is long.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:48
			Shoes.
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:50
			The camel.
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:53
			An elephant.
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:56
			A snake.
		
00:10:58 --> 00:10:58
			Is
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:00
			the servant.
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03
			Your job is to put after
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:05
			each one of these.
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:09
			The second drill,
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			Compose
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:21
			noun sentences
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:24
			by placing a haber
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			after the.
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:30
			Sorry. By placing a in
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			front of these habers, these.
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:34
			So
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:40
			for example, the weather is nice.
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:46
			The food is bitter.
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:48
			Circular.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:51
			Tall.
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:53
			Fast.
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:55
			Beautiful.
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:01
			A very important word, ferocious.
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:04
			Scared.
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:10
			From the east.
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:15
			It's dark.
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:17
			Jaffoon
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:20
			Jaffoon, dry.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:24
			Means it's cold outside.
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:28
			Actually,
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:31
			means to be, like, bright,
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:33
			to be shiny.
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:36
			Next drill,
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:49
			So what you wanna do is you wanna
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:51
			look at these words. You wanna find the
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:53
			word that's a and you wanna find the
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:54
			word that can be its.
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:56
			So for example,
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:57
			you could say,
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:11
			The door is shut.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:14
			The door is shut.
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:24
			The fire is blazing. So here's the
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:26
			here's the here's the
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:27
			here's
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:30
			the here's the. You wanna do that
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			with the rest of these words.
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:36
			The next drill,
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:53
			So what you wanna do is make 6
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:53
			sentences.
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:57
			Right? And you want to have a and
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:57
			a.
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:00
			Okay? 2 of them should be about human
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:02
			beings. 2 of them should be about animals.
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:04
			2 of them should be about plants and
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:04
			vegetation.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:07
			Next,
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:13
			Distinguish
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:16
			the verb sentence from the noun sentence.
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			And identify once you've done that, able to
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:30
			say this is a noun sentence, this is
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:30
			a verb sentence,
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:33
			then you need to be able to recognize
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:33
			the and
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:34
			the
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:37
			or the verb and the subject of the
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:39
			verb. Let's take a few just to practice.
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:39
			So
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:41
			for example,
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:43
			if I say,
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49
			the water is like pure.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:50
			Right?
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:55
			Or like standing, but it's understood to be
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:56
			pure.
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:58
			Let's say is the is the
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			the haber. This is a noun sentence.
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:04
			If I say, for example,
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:15
			This is a verb. This is a verb
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:15
			sentence.
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:17
			This is the fa the fail.
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:19
			This is the fail.
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:22
			So it gets exceedingly hot
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:24
			during the summertime.
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:30
			Your job is to identify what type of
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:33
			sentence it is. The and the or the
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:33
			and the.
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:37
			This is one of the most important drills
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:38
			in this section.
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:41
			This is the key to everything.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46
			This is actually is a fun drill to
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			do if you like.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			Means change
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:52
			change
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:54
			the noun sentence
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:58
			a verb sentence.
		
00:15:59 --> 00:15:59
			So
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:05
			the boy is sleeping. You can say
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:11
			So I took the and the and I
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:14
			turned it into a verb sentence. This is
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:15
			very important.
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:17
			Very important.
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:20
			Okay? So what you wanna be able to
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:21
			do is take these and
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:24
			turn them into
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:25
			the
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:27
			and the
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:29
			if you can into the
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:31
			It's fun.
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:33
			Next,
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:41
			Now you're gonna do the opposite. You're gonna
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			take these verb sentences
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:44
			and turn them into
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:45
			noun sentences.
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:49
			So you can say
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			This, you can do this on your own
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:04
			if you can kinda figure out what's going
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:04
			on.
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:07
			We're gonna stop here, Naktafi Behadah,
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:09
			But this is very important.
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:12
			Very, very important section of the text, and
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:14
			I hope you take it seriously and you're
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:16
			able to do well and perform well.
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			Next time inshallah, we're going to start to
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:20
			talk about what makes
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:24
			a imperfect verb in the nusbu case.
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:26
