Take it how you want it.
I despise people as such.
They are the cause of the derision by the sectarians.
Those are hypocrites among us.
They claim to have faith but they are boastful and arrogant and seek their own interpretation and recognition for their deluded uniqueness.
Uff to all of them. Al-Mushrik -

Uff to all of them. Al-MushrikI don't like these hypocrites as well but still telling them "kill thyself" won't make it better. Simply expose them and they will fell the "burn".

Hi BKANWAR2!
You have not answered my question that "Who legalizes the meanings".
Regards,
At current times meanings can be selected or if you prefer term legalization, it is done based upon context of meaning of other words and verses and bigger understanding of of message of Quran

Detailed analysis of Ayah 11
All religions and followers of religions keep coming forwards with theodasies to explain idiosyncrasies of their held beliefs. Instead of thinking that their held basic beliefs might be altogether wrong.
- There is never a description of a sentence called elliptical sentence in Classic Arabic . If anyone knows, please share a reference?
- Furthermore, even in English an elliptical sentence can be written only if the information is provided in preceding part. As an example, "Mazhar, likes to create theodasies, so do all his followers". The second part of this sentence "so do all his followers", is an example of elliptical sentence . There is no information in the Quran prior to this sentence, 11. This is the first sentence of the book.
- No sentence in Classic Arabic begins with a prepositional phrase. Which if traditional explanation as given is accepted is going to be the case.
The only sane Syntactical explanation is that is a word from root Ba-Siin-Miim and together are possessive phrase or Murrakab-e-Idhafee.

Is it not a sentence beginning with prepositional phrase? And what type of sentence is it?

If so from root Ba-Siin-Miim, then what type of word is this . A noun, verbal noun, or verb?
What it signifies?
What is its role - function in the sentence? -

When I said start, I meant the subject of the sentence. So you believe in your example this the subject of the sentence in the verse?

The word is in genitive case. Subject of a nominal sentence is always nominative.
Not entirely correct. Since, in Classic Arabic, unlike most modern languages, order of word arrangement is not important and subject of the sentence can be in the middle or end of the sentence. Hence, nominative case is used to point it out in these position. However, a sentence that starts with a noun is a nominal sentence and its case is not important. Please read with care Page 250 (about sentence and its parts) onward of Volume 2 of William Wright's Grammar. Nowhere, a mention of case of a noun is made if it is at the beginning. The first noun or phrase of nouns will be the subject of the given sentence. The case of first noun in the idhafee phrase depends upon relationship of the two words/nouns.

Notwithstanding order of words in a sentence, the subject wherever it is located can be identified by case ending in nominative. Wright could never say that subject of a sentence can be in genitive case.
If you think he said so cut and paste his opinion please.

Although, nowhere the case of noun subject at the beginning of a sentence is discussed by Wright in above reference. But since my objective is to stick to rules of language and usually subject is in nominative case. Hence, let me edit the translation of 11 as follows accepting that is prepositional phrase which would alleviate issue of nominative case as by default it will be considered in nominative case .
Surah 11
With nobility of One who doesn?t engage in worship comes the extreme and lasting concern for sufferings or misfortune of others.
- a preposition phrase, hence in genitive plus first part Idhafa phrase
- Idhafa phrase, plus subject of the sentence.
- Adjective phrase and Object of the sentence.

Just a small question, Is Wright's grammar book is on Classical or Modern Standard Arabic?

No phrase with first noun in genitive case can be subject or predicate of a sentence. Please just read some elementary grammar book.

We are talking about two different situations. While it is true that usually a subject is indicated by nominative case. However, this verses has no word in nominative case. It starts off with a possessive phrase .
A possessive phrase can be used as the subject of a sentence. Correct or not? If it is a simple possessive phrase of only two nouns, usually the first noun would have a nominative case to indicate it.
However, if first part of a possessive phrase is prepositional phrase, instead of just a noun. Which is the case here in which will give its noun a genitive case. Please tell us a rule that says it should still get a nominative case despite being a prepositional phrase? Also how would one identify it as a prepositional phrase, if a nominative case was applied?

Better study about elliptic sentence.

The object noun of a preposition is always genitive.
Where did I say it is not. Care to provide evidence contrary to following.

I already discussed, what an elliptical sentence is in modern Languages. I also cited from Wright no mention of such a sentence in Classic Arabic. Calling now this verse an elliptical sentence is at best an apologetic response in order to defend traditional wrong translation.
