Verb Forms

Mastering the meanings of Quranic Verbs is a great challenge for learners. Besides the complications of learning ROOTS, handling as many as 12 Verb Forms of Quran is another mamoth task for them. So, I have separated the 10th Form of the verbs that take 3 extra letters before the root. For example the ROOT غ - ف - ر Firm I of which generally means 'to foregive', adding 3 extra letter
 ( ا - س - ت )  will mean 'to SEEK foregiveness in the word استغفر  . One of the characteristics of this Verb Form is to add the meaning 'SEEK' to its original ROOT meaning.
This approach will help the learners to acquire verbs with similar Forms.

More Examples
The triliteral root sīn qāf yā (س ق ي) means 'to water, to give drink' while the 10th Form (ٱسْتَسْقَىٰ) means'to seek water, ask for water'.

وَالَّذِي هُوَ يُطْعِمُنِي وَيَسْقِينِ [٢٦:٧٩]
 and is the One who gives me to eat and to drink,(26:79)

 وَإِذِ اسْتَسْقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوْمِهِ فَقُلْنَا اضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ الْحَجَرَ 
 And [remember] when Moses asked for water for his people and We replied, "Strike the rock with thy staff!"- (2:60)
