Verse (18:50), Word 6 - Quranic Grammar

__

The sixth word of verse (18:50) is divided into 3 morphological segments. A resumption particle, verb and subject pronoun. The connective particle fa is usually translated as "then" or "so" and is used to indicate a sequence of events. The perfect verb (فعل ماض) is third person masculine plural. The verb's triliteral root is sīn jīm dāl (س ج د). The suffix (الواو) is an attached subject pronoun.

Chapter (18) sūrat l-kahf (The Cave)

REM – prefixed resumption particle
V – 3rd person masculine plural perfect verb
PRON – subject pronoun

Verse (18:50)

The analysis above refers to the 50th verse of chapter 18 (sūrat l-kahf):

Sahih International: And [mention] when We said to the angels, "Prostrate to Adam," and they prostrated, except for Iblees. He was of the jinn and departed from the command of his Lord. Then will you take him and his descendants as allies other than Me while they are enemies to you? Wretched it is for the wrongdoers as an exchange.
