And its origin is the waw, from your saying 'rawadahu', except that the waw became quiescent and its vowel was transferred to the preceding letter, so it turned into an alif in the past tense and a ya' in the future tense, and it dropped in the masdar due to its adjacency to the quiescent alif, and the ha' was substituted for it at the end.

وتقول: رويدك عمرا، فالكاف للخطاب لا موضع لها من الاعراب، لانها ليست باسم، ورويد غير مضاف إليها.
