In Arabic: there are two genders: Masculine ` and Feminine `

Masculine Nouns


a path


a book

`
a man
Notes:
1- The articles a & an do not exist in Arabic.
2- The Tanween at the end of the noun shows that this word is
indefinite.





Notes:
1- There is no word in Arabic similar to the English "it" we use ` for a
masculine human, animal, object or idea...
2- We do not need the word "is" (am, are ) to form a complete sentence
in Arabic.
'
That is a day


This is a book

`
It is a book
` `
He is a man
Writing rules:
- The word in line 1: is written in the standard Arabic without the
long vowel Alif after Laam, but we still pronounce it ('ilaah).
- The word in line 5: is written in the standard Arabic without the
long vowel Alif after Haa', but we still pronounce it (haadhaa).
- The word in line 7: is written in the standard Arabic without the
long vowel Alif after Dhaal, but we still pronounce it (dhaalik).

3- When the word is masculine ` : the pronoun ` ` , the
demonstrative ` ' are masculine ` as well.


Notes:
- Adding at the beginning of nouns makes it definite.
- When a word has ( ) it can never have Tanween ( ` ` )

the great news
' `
a straight path

a big torment

one God

Notes:
The Adjective `
- In line 1 the noun has an adjective
- In line 8 the noun has an adjective
- In Arabic, the adjective follows its noun and must agree with it:
in gender (masculine ` feminine ` ), in number (singular ` ,
dual ` , plural ' ) , in form (definite ' or indefinite ) and
in case (mark of the last letter).

- Look at the examples in page 9, you will see clearly the relation
between the noun and the adjective following it.
` `
the believer

`
the light

' `
the Qur'aan
The word Qur'aan in Arabic literally means recitation
or something that is continuously recited.
