The Arabic language relied in its functional grammatical system on a group of structures, which its speakers relied on, thus forming nominal and verbal sentences, and each of them has its own system for which Arab scholars established rules and systems that were later adopted as rules leading Arabic writing. The verb and the subject were the basis for forming sentences in Arabic, and grammarians called it “Al-,mudah”, as for what came as a complement to them, it was called “Al-Fadllah.” But when one of the originals, which is the subject, is deleted from the sentence, then the structure of the verb changes and is leaded by a set of rules. This structure must be followed by the deletion of the subject to be replaced by a substitute for the deleted subject. This deletion is not random or arbitrary, but rather the speaker or writer goes to it for rhetorical and functional purposes. This change in structure is accompanied by a change in meaning in addition to structural changes. Th.....
