Prepositions | الْحُرُوفُ الجَرِّ

 

 

 

Introduction

Words that combine with a noun or pronoun to form a phrase are called prepositions.

 

They have a meaning of their own and affect nouns and pronouns.

 

Thus, their effect on the noun is that they will change the vowel of the last letter of the noun from dammah, or fatha to kasrah.

 

The prepositions which act on nouns

The pronouns which affect the prepositions

 

All the above-mentioned prepositions have their effect on the last letter of the nouns. However, only four of the above prepositions:

عَلَى, إِلَى, بِ, فِيْ

act on the pronouns :

هُ, هُمَا, هُمْ, هُنَّ

They give kasrah to the first letter of the pronoun.

There is no action of these prepositions on any other pronouns.

Examples:

عَلى + هُ = عَلَيْهِ

عَلَى + هُمَا = عَلَيْهِمَا

عَلَى + هُمْ = عَلَيْهِمْ

عَلى + هُنَّ = عَلَيْهِنَ

The following table displays the effet of عَلَى, إِلَى , بِ , فِيْ on the pronouns هُ, هُمَا, هُمْ, هُنَّ.

Examples of the prepositions from the Noble Quran:

 

فَمَن فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ الْحَجَّ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_12.mp3
so whoever has made Hajj obligatory upon himself  (2:197)
 فَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_13.mp3
there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve. (2:38)
يُضِلُّ بِهِ كَثِيرًا وَيَهْدِي بِهِ كَثِيرًا ۚ وَمَا يُضِلُّ بِهِ إِلَّا الْفَاسِقِينَ 
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_14.mp3
He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient, (2:26)
 

As we have mentioned earlier, there is no action of these prepositions on other pronouns. Examples for these are stated below.

 

عَلى + كَ  = عَلَيْكَ No action of على on كَ
مَنْ + هُ = مِنْهُ No action of مِنْ on هُ
 

Examples:

 

حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ أُمَّهَاتُكُمْ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_15.mp3
Prohibited to you [for marriage] are your mothers, (4:23)
وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَن سَبِيلِهِ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ وَصَّاكُم بِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_16.mp3
and do not follow [other] ways, for you will be separated from His way. This has He instructed you that you may become righteous. (6:153)
وَوَضَعْنَا عَنكَ وِزْرَكَ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_17.mp3
And We removed from you your burden (94:2)
وَالَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا وَاسْتَكْبَرُوا عَنْهَا أُولَـٰئِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_18.mp3
But the ones who deny Our verses and are arrogant toward them – those are the companions of the Fire (7:36)
 

Exception:

 

At one place (48:10) in the Holy Qur’an, there is no action of على on هُ, and it is read:

عَلَيْهُ

Allah says,

 

وَمَنْ أَوْفَىٰ بِمَا عَاهَدَ عَلَيْهُ اللَّـهَ فَسَيُؤْتِيهِ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_19.mp3
And he who fulfills that which he has promised Allah – He will give him a great reward. (48:10)
 

In the lesson “pronouns,” we observe that the proposition :

لِ

comes attached to pronouns as a prefix and takes the form of :

لَ

except in the first person pronoun :

ىَ

 

Masculine 3rd person

 

لَهُ لَهُمَا لَهُمْ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_63.mp3

 For you  For you both  For you all

 

Masculine 1st person

 

لِيْ – لَنَا
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_65.mp3
For me – For us all
 

Examples:

 

لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_20.mp3
To Him belongs dominion, and to Him belongs [all] praise, (64:1)
 أَخْرَجْنَا لَهُمْ دَابَّةً مِّنَ الْأَرْضِ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_21.mp3
We will bring forth for them a creature from the earth speaking to them (27:82)
أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_22.mp3
Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast? (94:1)

لَهَا لَهُمَا لَهُنَّ
For her For them both For them all

لَكِ لَكُمَا لَكُنَّ

Examples of the prepositions from the Noble Quran:

 

لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ 
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_23.mp3
It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. (2:286)
لَكُمْ دِينُكُمْ وَلِيَ دِينِ
https://en.al-dirassa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/arabic_language_free_course_06_24.mp3

 

For you is your religion, and for me, is my religion.” (109:6)
