ما مفرد شمائل – إسألنا

The word “shama’il” in Arabic can refer to either ethical qualities (such as virtues) or the opposite of right, with no singular form. In the first case, it is considered a plural noun with no singular form, while in the second case, the singular form is “shimal,” meaning left. (Examples of similar words include fadila/fada’il, rukn/rukna’, ghareeba/gharaa’ib).
