(The alif after ج marks the accusative case)
(The alif after ج marks the accusative case)
===Clouds (غمام)===
In the second sura, it was writen two times with an alif:
{{Quote|{{Quran|2|57}}|
And We shaded you with '''clouds''' (الغمام) and sent down to you manna and quails, [saying], "Eat from the good things with which We have provided you." And they wronged Us not - but they were [only] wronging themselves.
}}
{{Quote|{{Quran|2|210}}|
Do they await but that Allah should come to them in covers of '''clouds''' (الغمام) and the angels [as well] and the matter is [then] decided? And to Allah [all] matters are returned.
}}
But in two other verses the alif is missing:
{{Quote|{{Quran|7|160}}|
..Every people knew its watering place. And We shaded them with '''clouds''' (الغمم) and sent down upon them manna and quails, [saying], "Eat from the good things with which We have provided you."..
}}
{{Quote|{{Quran|25|25}}|
And [mention] the Day when the heaven will split open '''with [emerging] clouds''' (بالغمم), and the angels will be sent down in successive descent.
}}


A similar thing happened to the word تراب. It was written 14 times with the alif, but 3 times without it (ترب).
