Rabb-A: Rabb (Administrator, Guardian who nurtures), Maf-'ul Bi-Hi (object of verbal clause), Mansub (in state of Nasb i.e. A (Fat-ha) sounds the last letter). Fat-ha placed there as a sign of aggrandizement (Ta'zim)

Kaf: Dhamir Muttasil (prefixed-connected pronoun) , in state of Jarr therefore it is an Idhafa (Annexation) to Rabb

Mim: 'Alama (Sign or flagged) to indicate male plural
