Al-Kalaam (speech) is letters that have sounds coming out from the furthest part of the throat to the end of the mouth and the lips. There are 28 letters (Huroof) and from these letters the Arabs constructed or composed speech (Kalaam) that contains meaning. It can consist of a letter (harf) like the Harf Al-Jarr ‘Al-Baa’u’ from two letters like ‘Min’ (and ‘Kam’ from three letters like ‘Rajul‘and ‘Ilm’ from four Huroof (letters) like ‘ Samaa’un’ and ‘Dahraja’ and from five letters like ‘Julmood‘ and ‘Isbakara' They did not set or provide an original word that was above 5 letters and words would only increase through adding a letter or two or three upon the original letters of the words (to provide extra meanings). They made these additional letters restricted to ten which are all found within the word ’ (Sa’altumoonihaa) (meaning: You (pl.) asked me it). So for example the word 'ا سْتِصْحا ب ‘ is from the origin of ‘صحب ‘whilst the rest of the letters are an addition to that and not from its root or origin. In respect to the word: ‘افُتِتَاح ‘it is taken from the word ‘ فُتَحَ' whilst the rest of the letters are additional.

1 – Al-Mufrad: Ya ƙunshi kuma ya ƙunshi kalma ɗaya (kalima).

1 – Al-Mufrad: It is made up of and consists of one Kalimah (word).

Wannan an raba shi zuwa: Harf (kalma mai ma'ana ta haɗi ko ta jingina), Fi'il (aikatau) da Isim (suna).

This is divided into: The Harf (preposition), the F’il (verb) and the Ism (noun).

2 – Al-Murakkab: Shi ne abin da ya kunshi ko ya ƙunshi kalmomi biyu ko fiye da haka.

2 – The Murakkab: It is what is made up of or consists of two words or more.

Wannan an raba shi zuwa nau'o'i da dama:

This is divided into a number of types:

A – Al-Murakkab Al-Isnaadiy (Haɗin Isnadi): Wannan yana nufin danganta wani abu ko wani lamari zuwa wani abu ko wani lamari, kamar danganta 'Tool' (tsawo) zuwa 'Al-Qalam' (alƙalami) lokacin da kake cewa: Qalam Taweel (Alƙalami mai tsawo).

A – Al-Murakkab Al-Isnaadiy (Attributing composition): This refers to attributing a matter or thing to another matter or thing like attributing ‘Tool’ (length) to ‘Al-Qalam’ (pen) when you say: Qalam Taweel (A long pen).

Murakkab Al-Isnaadiy yana da nau'i biyu: Khabar da Inshaa'.

The Murakkab Al-Isnaadiy is of two types: Khabar and Inshaa’.

Khabar shi ne hukunci a kan wani abu ko al'amari mai wata ma'ana daga cikin ma'anoni. Wannan kamar abin da ke faruwa a cikin 'Jumlah Al-Fi'liyah' (jumla ta aiki), kamar idan ka ce: 'Jaa'a Sa'eed' (Sa'eed ya zo). A wannan misali, zuwan an danganta shi ga Sa'eed kuma an bada labari a kansa (watau an bada Khabar (labari)) a cikin jumlar 'Jaa'a Sa'eed'.

The ‘Khabar’ is the Hukm (judgement) upon a thing or matter with a (particular) meaning from amongst the meanings. This is like what happens in the ‘Jumlah Al-Fi’liyah’ (Verbal sentence) like if you said: ‘Jaa’a Sa’eed’ (Sa’eed came). In this example the coming has been attributed to Sa’eed and it was informed about (i.e. Khabar (news) was provided) within the sentence ‘Jaa’a Sa’eed’.

Haka kuma yake faruwa dangane da Jumlah Al-Ismiyah (jumla mai farawa da suna), kamar a maganar: ‘Sa’eed Mujtahid’ (Sa’eed mai himma ne). A nan ana danganta Ijtihaad (himma/kwazo) ga Sa’eed a cikin jumlar: ‘Sa’eed Mijtahid’.

It is also like what occurs in respect to the Jumlah Al-Ismiyah (Sentence beginning with a noun) like in the statement: ‘Sa’eed Mujtahid’ (Sa’eed is hardworking). Here the Ijtihaad (hard work/diligence) is attributed to Sa’eed in the sentence: ‘Sa’eed Mijtahid’.
