What a scandal Allah had no clue about the nominative and accusative

Such a wasted long post and he goes and shoots himself in the foot. How stupid.

That is incorrect - be cause only the particles of حرف مشبه بالفعل gives it ism mansub and its khabar marfoo case - and that harf would have been Inna and not in.

After all that wasted lectures on Transliteration and me not knowing any Arabic.

The fool goes and makes another mistakes. He is still refusin to converse in Arabic - or bringin in an impartial Judge - as he keeps saying one thing and me totally opposite.

in hadhayne latilmithan

I reading the above line as : ان هذين لا تلميذ

Certainly, these two are not student. That is making the ان as حرف مشبة بالفعل - then its is better to transliterate as Inna - in

Intersting point:

and the last bit the Khabar should be la tilmithun as i is marfoo - nominative case. But if the particle "la" is ما و لا مشابه بليس then la tilmithan is correct. So eithe way is correct - it depends on how you ar analysing it syntactically - a concept alien to English which has lost its case markings.

What a silly and childish way to argue.
