4.1C/4.1C1 - Genitive Compound
C. Genitive Compound الْمُرَكَّبُ الجَّارِيْ To understand a Genitive Compound, first, we need to know the Genitive Particle/ Prepositions in Arabic. Genitive Particles حَرْفُ الْجَرِّ har-fu jar-rin are equivalent to Prepositions and when used with a Noun, cause it to go into a Genitive جَرٌّ ( jarr-un ) State. In Arabic, these are words/alphabets governing, and usually preceding, a noun or pronoun and expressing a relation to another word or element in the clause, as in “he is going towards the mosque”, or “I am with Zaid”. That is, prepositions are used to connect Nouns or Nouns and pronouns.
