Noun, pronoun or verb?

In the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful,
  • noun - a word (other than a pronoun) used to identify any of a class of people, places, or things.
    Example: Book, Cat.
  • pronoun - a word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse (e.g. I, you) or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse (e.g. she, it, this)

  • verb - a word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse (e.g. I, you) or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse (e.g. she, it, this).
Wallahualam.
