Question 1

A Kalimah is a combination of letters to form a word. A kalimah can be mufeed i.e. benefical and non
mufeed i.e. non beneficial. There are three types of kalimah:
1. Ism-Noun: This describes a name, place or thing. The meaning of a noun can be understood on
its own e.g kitab i.e. a book
2. Fail-Verb: This denotes action and can be past, present or future tense. The meaning of a verb
can also be understood on its own e.g. zaraba i.e. to hit.
3. Harf-Particle: This is a connecting word and the meaning of it cannot be understood on its own
e.g. fi i.e. in. If I were to say in people would ask me what in? So it needs supporting words to
give meaning to it.

Question 3
The two types of jumla are:
Jumla inshiya: This is a kind of sentence which has no possibility of being true or false
Jumla Khabariya: This kind of sentence has the possibility of being true or false.

Question 4
The types of Jumla Khabariya are:
Jumla Khabariya ismiya: This type of sentence begins with a noun. The second part can be a noun or
verb. The first noun is called mubtada or musnad ilaiya i.e. the thing about which news is being given.
The second part is khabar. There can be more than one khabar in a sentence. For example Allahu
Jameelun Kabeerun. Allah is beautiful and the most powerful. Allah is the mubtada and jameelun and
kabeerun are khabar. Also mubtada and khabar are both marfoo i.e. they have a dammah on the last
letter.

JKI=Mubtada + Khabar

Jumla Khabraiya Failiya: This type of sentence begins with a verb. The second part of the sentence is the
fail or the doer of the verb. So the sentence comprises the verb and fail (doer). There may or may not be
a mafool i.e. an object. The fair is always marfoo while the mafool is always mansoob i.e. have a Fattah
on the last letter.
JIF=Verb + Doer + Object
