אسאLesson 5אאTHE IRAB OF NOUNThe Irab of words is a peculiar characteristic of Arabiclanguage, which does not have an equivalent in English.Therefore, it requires particular attention to grasp thesubject. The Arabic noun changes its original form or thecase ending under different grammatical conditions, e.g.א being the original form in nominative case, called ‏,אْ may change to ‏,א the accusative case, called א or ‏,א the genitive case, called ْא. Likewise,, being the original form, may change to אً‏ or, e.g.in the Shahadah E F ‘declaration of faith’ the first partis א א where א is the original form in nominativecase and the second part is אل where א is inthe genitive case, while in the verse ٍ א ن ﴿﴾ , the noun א is in the accusative. Similarly, in theאدfirst part of the Shahadah the noun is in the originalform, but in א the noun is ingenitive form and in א ل אً‏ ن it is in theaccusative.29
