تَذَكَّرْ: يَأْتِي الْمُبْتَدَأُ وَالْخَبَرُ مَرْفُوعَيْنِ دَائِمًا إِذَا لَمْ يَدْخُلْ عَلَيْهِمَا أَيُّ حَرْفٍ أَوْ فِعْلٍ نَاقِصٍ، وَذَلِكَ كَمَا فِي الْمَجْمُوعَةِ الْأُولَى مِنَ الشَّكْلِ السَّابِقِ.

Remember: The subject (mubtada') and the predicate (khabar) are always in the nominative case (marfu') if no particle or defective verb enters upon them, as is the case in the first group of the previous figure.

عِنْدَمَا تَدْخُلُ "إِنَّ وَأَخَوَاتُهَا" عَلَى الْجُمْلَةِ الْاسْمِيَّةِ تَنْصِبُ الْمُبْتَدَأَ؛ لِذَا نَجِدُ أَنَّ أَوَاخِرَ الْكَلِمَاتِ: التَّسَامُحَ، كَثِيرًا، النَّاسَ، الْعِلْمَ، الْجُنْدِيَّ، فَرَجَ قَدْ تَغَيَّرَتْ عَلَامَتُهَا فَأَصْبَحَتْ مَنْصُوبَةً، وَعَلَامَةُ النَّصْبِ الْفَتْحَةُ، وَذَلِكَ كَمَا فِي الْمَجْمُوعَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ مِنَ الشَّكْلِ السَّابِقِ.

When 'Inna and its sisters' enter upon the nominal sentence, they put the subject in the accusative case (mansub); therefore, we find that the endings of the words: al-tasamuh (tolerance), kathiran (much), al-nas (people), al-'ilm (knowledge), al-jundi (the soldier), faraj (relief) have had their signs changed and have become accusative, and the sign of the accusative is the fatha, as is the case in the second group of the previous figure.

وَقَدْ سَبَقَ لَنَا مَعْرِفَةُ أَنَّ هَذِهِ الْحُرُوفَ تُفِيدُ مَعَانِيَ جَدِيدَةً بَعْدَ دُخُولِهَا عَلَى الْجُمْلَةِ:

We have previously learned that these particles convey new meanings after entering upon the sentence:
