Jar-Majrur to Bath-tha

Mim of Min-Hu-Ma is 'Imad

Ending Alif of Min-Hu-Ma indicates the female gender of dual absent pronoun

Terminology: 'Imad is a disconnected pronoun that discerns the Khabar from the Mubtada' (REF: Arabic Grammatical Nomenclature, Antoine Haddad, ISBN 01D110496)

Problem: Salih calls the said Mim Imad but Mim is not Munfasil or disconnected pronoun.
