Our dear Amin with the help of his shra jami a Pakistani Arabic source is trying to explain not just Arabic garmmar but also Syriac! Go figure

and الله

Sure so what happened to the alif in ism? was it eaten by a hungry goat like the one that ate ayat al-rajm or ayat rida3at al-kabeer? what a disaster
