Yes , Olama' can means all the scientists in general , but we used to mention their department . For e.g " Medicine scientists " علماء الطب
Engeneering scientists علماء الهندسة or in general " Engineers " مهندسون

"hatha ma 3indi wa3inda-allah "
This is what I have , and what Allah has .

hatha = this
ma = what
3indi = I have
wa= and
3ind = has
allah = our God .

strange sentence :)

Ah i heard some of the students of knowledge saying it. It was trying to figure of what it means. Its a good sentence nonetheless.

People say Jazakalla
For female is it Jazakilla ?

Thank you so much :)

It's actually the only correct way :) That's because the verb "Jazaak" means "May He recompense you". The compensation can be a reward or a punishment! Consider,

"And to God belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth - that He may recompense those who did wrong for what they did and recompense those who did good with the best [reward]." (53:31)

Thus, when a Muslim says to another, "Jazaak Allaah", he is being ambiguous!

To say it right and accurately, you say:
Jazaaka Allaahu Khayra[n] (to one male),
Jazaaki Allaahu Khayra[n] (to one female)
Jazaakuma Allaahu Khayra[n] (to two people)
Jazaakum Allaahu Khayra[n] (to more than two males, or to a group of people where males outnumber females)
Jazaakunna Allaahu Khayra[n] (to more than two females)

If you can't remember all that, you can always use the plural second person format,
Jazaakum Allaahu Khayra[n]

I put an [n] in brackets because it is OK to say the phrase with or without the [n]. Without the [n] is the proper Arabic if the sentence ends there or if you pause at it. If you continue talking without pausing then the [n] has to be pronounced. For example,

Jazaaka Allaahu Khayran Katheera (may God recompense you with plenty of good). There you cannot skip the [n] because you did not pause at Khayra[n].

Oh, You are very good.

So if you say to a female "may Allah guide you"

Ii is "Hadaki illah" ?

HadakIllah is correct i think :) *These guys will help you out inshaAllah*

Urm, just wanted to ask. I know ive asked before but its a little confusing for me. When you're typing Arabic English *written in the English format, but said as Arabic* you tend to use, 7, 3 etc etc? And i feel very :confused:

7= Haa ?
3= 'Ayn

What is the rest please?

JazakAllah khayr

Wasalam

Saudi Arabian sister ? :biggrin:

in a short way u can call me Fatima :)

The Literal translation of " kalam fadhi " = empty speech but it's an expression for the useless speech , the speech which doesn't have any benifit , Unacceptable speech .

okhayeya ( male )
أُخــيَّ

okhayeyah ( female )

أُخــيـَّــة

No problem , any time I'm here :)

Hello honey ,
Ok this way is used by the ppl whom write Arabic in Latin letters , about me I don't like it , Arabic letters are the best ;)
they choose the similar number to represent each letter , for e . g . 7 = ح
it's a kinda similar .

and it's Huroof NOT huruf
Sarf Not suruf
balaghah not balaghuh


:)

Kasrah , Fat'hah and Dhammah :)

By experience you'll learn how to read without Harakat
If I write a word without Harakat ( accents ) it will have many meanings but by experience you'll know what the certain meaning .
