the Adjectives in the Arabic language | الصِّفَاتُ

Introduction

 

Adjectives are words that describe the quality, colour or defect of the other noun. They are usually derived from intransitive verbs, which note a state or condition rather than an act.

  There are certain patterns to denote an adjective.  

1. فَاعِلٌ – active participle

  Examples:

  • صَالِحٌ – righteous/good
  • عَالِمٌ – knowledgeable
  • عَابِدٌ – worshipper

 وَلَا أَنَا عَابِدٌ مَّا عَبَدتُّمْ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_01.mp3

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

 

2. Adjectives pattern: فَعِيلٌ

  Examples:

  • كَرِمٌ – noble
  • عَظِيمٌ – great
  • رَحِيمٌ – merciful
  • قَدِيرٌ – powerful

 

وَاللَّـهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_02.mp3

 and Allah is Knowing and Wise. (9:15)

 

لَّهُمْ دَرَجَاتٌ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ وَمَغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَرِيمٌ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_03.mp3

For them are degrees [of high position] with their Lord and forgiveness and noble provision. (8:4)

3. Adjectives pattern: فَعُولٌ

  Examples:

  • ظَلُومٌ – great wrong-doer
  • غَفُورٌ – forgiver
  • رَءُوفٌ – compassionate

إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَظَلُومٌ كَفَّارٌ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_04.mp3

Indeed, humankind is [generally] most unjust and ungrateful. (14:34)

 

 وَاللَّـهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_05.mp3

And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful. (2:218)

 

 وَاللَّـهُ رَءُوفٌ بِالْعِبَادِ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_06.mp3

 and Allah is Kind to [His] servants.” (3:30)

 

4. Adjective patterns: فَعْلانُ

  Examples:

  • غَضْبَانُ – angry
  • رَحْمَانُ  – most gracious

 

الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ 

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_07.mp3

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

 

فَرَجَعَ مُوسَىٰ إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِ غَضْبَانَ أَسِفًا

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_08.mp3

So Moses returned to his people, angry and grieved (20:86)

 

5. Adjectives pattern: فَعَّالٌ

  Examples:

  • جَبَّارٌ – strong/powerful

 

 الْعَزِيزُ الْجَبَّارُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_09.mp3

 the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, the Superior (59:23)

  The pattern used for colours and defect are:  

  • Singular masculine: أَفْعَلُ
  • Singular feminine:  فَعْلاءُ
  • Dual masculine: أَفْعَلانِ
  • Dual feminine: فَعْلَوَانِ
  • Plural masculine: فُعْلٌ
  • Plural feminine:  فُعْلٌ

Examples:  

وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ الْخَيْطُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الْخَيْطِ الْأَسْوَدِ مِنَ الْفَجْرِ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_10.mp3

And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread [of night].  (2:187)

 

 وَاضْمُمْ يَدَكَ إِلَىٰ جَنَاحِكَ تَخْرُجْ بَيْضَاءَ مِنْ غَيْرِ سُوءٍ آيَةً أُخْرَىٰ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_11.mp3

And draw in your hand to your side; it will come out white without disease – another sign, (20:22)

 

وَمِنَ الْجِبَالِ جُدَدٌ بِيضٌ وَحُمْرٌ مُّخْتَلِفٌ أَلْوَانُهَا وَغَرَابِيبُ سُودٌ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_12.mp3

And in the mountains are tracts, white and red of varying shades and [some] extremely black. (35:27)

 

صُمٌّ بُكْمٌ عُمْيٌ فَهُمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ

https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/arabic_language_free_course_73_13.mp3

Deaf, dumb and blind – so they will not return [to the right path]. (2:18)
