LessonsPractical Exercises with the IḍāfahQuiz

● We have learned that diptote nouns, including women's names, city names, Jahannam, and certain prophets' names, do not take a kasrah in the genitive case; they take a fatḥah instead.
● Therefore, when a diptote becomes a muḍāf ilayh, it is genitive with a fatḥah rather than a kasrah. Study these examples:
7. شَهْرُ + رَمَضَانُ: -> شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ (رَمَضَانُ is a diptote muḍāf ilayh, so it takes a fatḥah in the genitive case.)
8. نَارُ + جَهَنَّمُ: -> نَارُ جَهَنَّمَ (جَهَنَّمُ is a diptote muḍāf ilayh.)
9. إِخْوَةٌ + يُوسُفُ: -> إِخْوَةُ يُوسُفَ (يُوسُفُ is a diptote muḍāf ilayh.)
10. صُحُفٌ + إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَمُوسَى: -> صُحُفُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمُوسَى (إِبْرَاهِيمَ is a diptote genitive with fatḥah, while مُوسَى is an alif maqṣūrah noun whose genitive ending is implicit.)
