ضُحَا
A word in the Arabic language will either be 1) a verb or 2) a noun or 3) a particle – ضُحَا is a noun
A noun may either be 1) Definite or indefinite 2) Masculine or feminine 3) Singular, dual or plural 4) Nominative, accusative or genitive
الضُّحَى is the natural state of this definite noun and it remains الضُّحَى even though it is in the genitive case due to: 1) a preposition that precedes it or 2) a possessed noun that precedes it or 3) it’s a noun of dependent declension a) نَعْتٌ / صِفَطٌ adjectives b) التَّوْكِيْدُ emphatic c) المَعْطُوْفٌ conjunction d) البَدَلُ synonym
because the third radical in الضُّحَى is a weak letter (و or ي) and weak letters do not show their endings, their endings have to be estimated (deduced by reason)
الضُّحَى loses it’s definite article ال, changing to ضُحَا due to it being a possessed noun
Morning, brightness
