  • In-Shā'-Allâh (God willing), we will continue practising the demonstrative pronoun /dhālika/ which refers to objects that are further away. We remind you that the Arabic grammar doesn't call it demonstrative pronoun, it rather call it Arabic demonstrative nouns or Arabic demonstrative articles.
