LessonsThree More Causes of NasbQuiz

Read the endings and the grammatical relationship, not only the word لَا.

Working like laysa: لَا رَجُلٌ صَالِحًا
The ism رَجُلٌ is marfu; the khabar صَالِحًا is mansub.

Negating the whole class: لَا رَيْبَ فِيهِ
The ism رَيْبَ is built on fathah in the position of nasb and appears without tanwin.

These are two simple cases, so a direct comparison is clearer than a table.
