	Abdul Rahman 25th December, 2009 Assalamu alaykum Kais. Please refer to "al-i3raab al-mufaSSal..." for the i3raab of this and the next two words. As we can see from the English translations, this (and 19:38:3) is not a simple case of a 2nd person masculine singular imperative verb, but an example of Sigha ta3ajjub, expression of wonder.
	Asim 12th June, 2013 19:38:1 is used in making verb of wonder. The verbs of wonder are made by writing مَا أَفْعَلَ followed by the accusative of the object that causes the surprise and أَفْعِلْ followed by بِ followed by the genitive.
