Isim is alif and lam
Example:
اَلْبَيْتُ – اَلْمِصْبَاحُ – اَلْمَسْجِدُ
Isim that is based on isim ma’rifat others
Example:
كِتَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ – صَاحِبُ البَيْتِ
Note:
Isim Nakiroh usually has a married final harokat
Example:
مُسْلِمٌ – مِصْبَاحٌ
The name of the person despite being married is still said to be isim ma’rifat and not as isim nakiroh.
Example:
مُحَمَّدٌ – زَيْدٌ
When an isim is based on the nakiroh isim, it is the nakiroh isim. But if it is based on isim ma’rifat, then he is also as isim ma’rifat.
Example:
كِتَابُ طَالِبٍ – كِتَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ
