أَسْتَنْتِجُ: تُكْتَبُ الْأَلِفُ اللَّيِّنَةُ فِي الْأَفْعَالِ ثُلَاثِيٌّ: إِذَا كَانَ أَصْلُهَا وَاوٌ، عَلَى صُورَةِ قَائِمَةٍ (ا).

Conclusion: In triliteral verbs, the soft alif is written as a vertical alif (ا) if its origin is a waw.

فَوْقَ الثُّلَاثِيِّ: إِذَا كَانَ أَصْلُهَا يَاءٌ، تُكْتَبُ الْأَلِفُ اللَّيِّنَةُ عَلَى صُورَةِ الْيَاءِ (ى) (صَلَّى - اِسْتَعْلَى - اِخْتَفَى)، إِلَّا إِذَا سُبِقَتِ الْأَلِفُ بِيَاءٍ، فَتُكْتَبُ قَائِمَةً (يَحْيَا - تَزَيَّا - اِسْتَحْيَا).

For verbs with more than three letters: If the origin is a ya, the soft alif is written as a ya (ى) (e.g., salla, ista'la, ikhtafa), unless the alif is preceded by a ya, in which case it is written as a vertical alif (e.g., yahya, tazayya, istahya).
