Word by word i'rab
substitute (badal) for mafazan
It stands in for mafazan from the preceding verse and is accusative, but takes a fatha without tanwin because it is a diptote (forbidden from full nunation).
accusativenoun joined by conjunction (ma'tuf)
The wa is a connector and a'naban is linked to hada'iq, sharing its accusative case with normal tanwin.
accusativeDetailed i'rab
This verse expands on the mafazan mentioned in the previous ayah. Hada'iq functions as a badal (substitution), clarifying what the triumph consists of, and it therefore matches mafazan in being accusative. However, hada'iq does not take tanwin because it is a diptote (mamnu' min as-sarf), following the pattern of broken plurals that end in a long alif followed by two letters; such words take a bare fatha in the accusative rather than the usual nunated fathatan. The conjunction wa then joins a'naban to hada'iq, and as a fully declinable noun it shows the accusative with regular tanwin. Together the two nouns detail the gardens and vineyards prepared for the righteous.
Frequently asked
Why does hada'iq not have tanwin?
It is a diptote (mamnu' min as-sarf) because it follows the ultimate-plural pattern, so it takes a plain fatha in the accusative without nunation.
What is the grammatical link between this verse and mafazan?
Hada'iq is a badal (substitution) for mafazan, which is why it carries the accusative case.
