Lesson

1. Bab If'enlaah: The Final Door

This level studies the final verbal door in this section: اِسْلَنْقَىٰ.
Its base root is س، ل، ق.
The Masdar is اِسْلِنْقَاءٌ, with the meaning of lying flat on one's back.

2. Structural Signature

The form اِسْلَنْقَىٰ has 3 added structural features:
1. Hamzat-ul-Wasl at the beginning.
2. A silent نْ between the second and third root letters.
3. A final added weak element after the third root letter, appearing here as ىٰ.

3. Complete Sarf-e-Sagheer

Recite the complete active paradigm together:
اِسْلَنْقَىٰ يَسْلَنْقِيْ اِسْلِنْقَاءً فَهُوَ مُسْلَنْقٍ الأَمْرُ مِنْهُ اِسْلَنْقِ وَالنَّهْيُ عَنْهُ لَا تَسْلَنْقِ
It contains active past, active Mudhaari', Masdar, Ism Fa'il, imperative, and prohibitive.

4. Watch the Weak Ending

The weak ending appears differently across the taught forms.

FormCategory
اِسْلَنْقَىٰActive past
يَسْلَنْقِيْActive Mudhaari'
مُسْلَنْقٍIsm Fa'il
اِسْلَنْقِImperative
لَا تَسْلَنْقِProhibitive

Learn each form as it is taught rather than forcing the same ending into every slot.

5. Understand the Paradigm by Slots

اِسْلِنْقَاءٌMasdar

Passive forms and Ism Maf'ool are not added to this taught paradigm.

6. What Does Mulhaq Mean?

In Sarf, Mulhaq means that an extra letter is added to a word so that its form matches the weight of another word.
The important idea is matching the morphological pattern, not changing the original root into a new root.
