Active participle in Arabic |اِسْمُ الفاعِل

Introduction to the active participle – اِسْمُ الفاعِلِ

 

In Arabic, the noun used for the doer of an action (subject), is called اِسْمُ الفاعِلِ. It is formed by adding an alif – ا to the first radical of the verb فَعَلَ. The middle letter is given a kasrah -ِ and the last radical is given a tanween. The active participle pattern will be فَاعِلٌ.

 

  Example:  

سَجَدَ /  سَاجِدٌ

one who prostrates / to prostrate

 

حَمِدَ / حَامِدٌ

one who praises / to praise

 

كَفَرَ / كَافِرٌ

A disbeliever / to disbelieve

Examples of active participles used in the Holy Quran

 

قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_01.mp3

Say, “O disbelievers, (109:1)

 

وَلَا أَنَا عَابِدٌ مَّا عَبَدتُّمْ 

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_02.mp3

Nor will I be a worshipper of what you worship. (109:4)

 

وَلَا أَنتُمْ عَابِدُونَ مَا أَعْبُدُ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_03.mp3

Nor will you be worshippers of what I worship. (109:5)

 

 فَيُصْبِحُوا عَلَىٰ مَا أَسَرُّوا فِي أَنفُسِهِمْ نَادِمِينَ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_04.mp3

and they will become, over what they have been concealing within themselves, regretful. (5:52)

 

وَلَهُمْ فِيهَا أَزْوَاجٌ مُّطَهَّرَةٌ ۖ وَهُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_05.mp3

And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. (2:25)

 

Hamzated and assimilated verb

  Hamzated verbs on the pattern of أَكَلَ – سَأَلَ and قَرَأَ or assimilated verbs on the pattern of وَعَدَ and يَسِرَ take their active participle on the pattern of فَاعِلٌ.   Examples:

أَكَلَ / آكِلٌ

One who eats

سَأَلَ / سَائِلٌ

Questioner

قَرَأَ / قَارِئٌ

One who reads

وَعَدَ / وَاعِدٌ

One who promises

يَسِرَ / يَاسِرٌ

One who becomes easy

Examples:  

سَأَلَ سَائِلٌ بِعَذَابٍ وَاقِعٍ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_06.mp3

A supplicant asked for a punishment bound to happen (70:1)

  Note: Some active participles are on the pattern of فَعِيْلٌ. These come as adjectives and describe eternal, everlasting qualities.   Example:  

عَظِيْكٌ – Great one

حَسِيْنٌ – Good one

كَبِيْرٌ – Big one

 

قَالَ فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ 

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_07.mp3

[Allah] said, “Then get out of it, for indeed, you are expelled. (15:34)

 

إِنْ هَـٰذَا إِلَّا مَلَكٌ كَرِيمٌ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_08.mp3

this is none but a noble angel.” (12:31)

 

الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_09.mp3

The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful, (1:3)

 

Hollow verbs

 

When the second radical is the weak letter و or ى, then their active participle will be on the pattern of فَاعِلٌ.

  Examples:  

قَالَ / قَائِلٌ

one who speaks

 

بَاغَ / بائِغٌ

One who sells

 

Defective verbs

 

When the third radical is the weak letter و or ى, e.g., دَعَا and رَمَى, the active participle will be on the pattern of دَاعِوٌ and دَامِوٌ as per the pattern فَاعِلٌ. However, we observe a change in its formation.

 

دَعَا = دَاعِوٌ  – دَاعٍ

One who calls

رَمَى = رامِوُ – رامٍ

One who throws

لَقِيَ = لاقِوٌ – لاقٍ

One who meets

 

This is because when و or ى bear dammah tanween and is preceded by kasrah, then the و and ى are dropped, and the harakah of the previous letter is changed to tanween kasrah -ِ.

  Note: When اَلْ is added to the singular of active participles like دَاعٍ, the ى will be written as الدَّاعِي.  

Double lettered verbs – الْمُضاعَفُ

  According to the pattern فَاعِلٌ, the active participle of verbs on the pattern of ظَنَّ should be ظَانِنٌ. But they will be written with a shaddah -ّ as ظَآنٌّ.   Examples:  

ظَنَّ =ظَانِنٌ – ظَآنٌّ

One who suspects.

 

ضَلَّ = ضّالِلٌ – ضَالٌّ

One who goes astray

 

صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/arabic_language_free_course_46_10.mp3

The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray. (1:7)

The revelation of the Qur’an is from Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise. (39:1)

 

 أَمَّنْ هُوَ قَانِتٌ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ سَاجِدًا وَقَائِمًا يَحْذَرُ الْآخِرَةَ وَيَرْجُو رَحْمَةَ رَبِّهِ

    I have enjoyed the lessons from Al-dirassa and benefited tremendously thus far.
    First, my instructor has personalized the lessons, aligning them to my learning goals. In addition, he has advised me with specific supplemental activities, which will assist me in reaching my learning goals.
    Second, my instructor has been extremely patient with me, allowing me numerous opportunities to express myself in Arabic without rushing me or interrupting me.

    Lastly, the administration responded promptly to my needs, and they clearly addressed any concerns I had moving forward with classes

    I feel confident in my decision in selecting Al-dirassa over other Arabic language institutions, and I plan to continue studying with the school for the foreseeable future.
