Previously asked questions

Q.  Are these two sentences equal?   مررتُ برجلٍ أبوهُ قائمٌ  And  مررت بالرجلِ القائمِ أبوهُ  The only difference being, one is naat haqeeqi and the other is naat sababee. Though there is no relative pronoun (al-ladhee) after Ar-Rajul in the second sentence, the jumlah after it is still naat and not HAAL because it is naat Sababee.
Here is the answer in audio
Q. Salam Just wanted to say that you did an excellent piece on ضمير الشان in your supplementary lesson.  I was wondering if you can provide me with sources of where information on ضمير الشان can be found.  Its just that ive struggled to find information on this subject with the books i have.  Also wanted to say so far i have found the work you have done very beneficial.
I obtained this information from Advanced grammar books, Balagha books and Quran Tafaseer which deal with these sciences. All the books I am referring to are books in the Arabic language and are not available in English.
