For Mustapha: read Q 20:63 and "ina hadhan la sahiran" Part deux

So did you check your Qur'an and the above aya? And what do you think of this poor grammar my dear Mustapha? and this is the rasm: alif nuun (ina) heh dhal nuun (hadhan) lam seen hah reh nuun (sahiran).

Notice that the long alifs in sahiran are missing in this defective rasm and was added by the 'Ulama that worked on the masora. And now you read sahiran (which is poor Arabic) and it becomes saahiraan (2 alifs added above the seen and the reh) and who says that the Qur'an was unedited? And no this has nothing to do with lahja! And it is hadhan or hadhayin? Food for thought as they say.

I'm shocked that you did not know of the above aya. This is the most celebrated grammatical problem in the Qur'an.

It seems that we proud kuffar know more about the Qur'an than you seem to know.

For the readers: anyone interested for an excellent scholarly review of this grammatical problem please see Wansbrough's Quranic Studies pages 222-223.
