You might find difference between our translation and the interpretation of meaning of the Quraan.
As here we are trying to keep a literal meaning as much as possible.

Conjugation of the Demonstrative Pronouns for Dual

The Demonstrative Pronouns for dual are having the same conjugation of the dual,
e.g. they have in the case of and in the case of

case of

A new grammatical position: The Substitute

What is the Substitute ?
When two words denote the same name, the second is called the Substitute
and the first is called the substituted. (In some books it is called


)

Conjugation of :
Grammatically the substitute is a follower like the adjective. E.g. the
substitute
follows in conjugation: if
is ,
will
be , if
is
,
will be
and if is
,
will be .
Examples of the substitute:

1- When two names are given to the same person:

*


The word
is a substitute for the word
which is another famous

(
proper name of
May Allaah be satisfied with him ) ,
and any of them can replace the other. The word
in this case will follow
the word
in conjugation.

* The word when it comes between two proper masculine names and
the second should be truly the father of the first, it is written without

In the Quraan the word came in different positions, for
example:

( ur'/ 9s% 9s ( !$# /$# xy9$# t|9$# Ms9$s%u !$# $# t u9$# Ms9$s%u -

6s 4r& 4 !$# n=tGs% 4 6s% (#x2 t%!$# ts%

And the Jews say: 'Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allaah, and the Christians say:
Messiah is the son of Allaah. That is their saying with their mouths, resembling
the saying of those who disbelieved aforetime. Allaah's Curse be on them, how
they are deluded away from the truth!

In the example above the name after is not a truly the father of the name

before, that is why is written in the complete form.

... ( uqr& $# t/ . A't 5t/ #Met6u 1uG9$#

And (remember) when Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), said: "O Children
of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allaah unto you, confirming the Taurt (Torah)
which came) before me, and giving glad tidings of a Messenger to come after
me, whose name shall be Ahmed

2- When the same word is repeated to give more explanation:

those who went astray.)

* You should start learning to search in the dictionary for the meanings of the words
that you do not know:
- I suggest AL-MAWRID Dictionary (Arabic-English): it is easy to use.
- The nouns should be in singular form and without of definition. Ex.

- The verbs should be in the past tense form and without any connected
pronoun. E.g. verb for HE. Ex.
