- In this section, we will learn the accusative case of diptotes In-Shā’-Allâh (God Willing):
- Previously we have learnt only one situation when a noun takes the accusative case and that is:
- When the noun is the object of a verbal sentence مَفْعُولٌ i.e.,أَكَلَ خَالِدٌ تُفَّاحًا
- However, since the diptote does not take a /tanwīn/, if it is used as the object of a verbal sentence it will take a single /fatħah/ instead of double vowels e.g., زَارَ طَاهِرٌ مَسَاجِدَ كَثِيرَةً
- Let’s review some examples to understand this rule:
