تَسَاءَلَ، مُرُوءَةٌ، سَمَوْأَلٌ، أَوْ كَانَ بَعْدَهَا أَلِفُ اثْنَيْنِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنِ اتِّصَالُهَا بِمَا قَبْلَهَا مِثْلَ جُزْءَانِ، فَإِنْ أَمْكَنَ اتِّصَالُهَا بِمَا قَبْلَهَا فَعَلَى يَاءٍ مِثْلُ: خَطَئَانِ.

Words like tasa'ala, muru'ah, and Samaw'al, or those followed by a dual alif that cannot connect to the preceding letter—unlike juz'an—should be written on a ya if connection is possible, as in khata'an.

الْقَاعِدَةُ الثَّالِثَةُ فِي كِتَابَةِ تَاءِ التَّأْنِيثِ تُكْتَبُ تَاءُ التَّأْنِيثِ تَارَةً مَفْتُوحَةً وَتَارَةً مَرْبُوطَةً.

The third rule concerns the feminine ta, which is written either as an open ta or a closed ta.

فَتُكْتَبُ مَرْبُوطَةً فِي جَمْعِ التَّكْسِيرِ مِثْلُ: قُضَاةٍ، وَفِي الْمُفْرَدَةِ الْمُؤَنَّثَةِ مِثْلُ: شَجَرَةٍ، وَيُسْتَثْنَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ بِنْتٌ وَأُخْتٌ فَإِنَّهَا مَفْتُوحَةٌ فِيهِمَا،

The closed form is used for broken plurals like qudah and singular feminine nouns like shajarah, with the exception of bint and ukht, which are written with an open ta.
