Abu al-Aswad ad-Du'ali

So manqut is marked or dotted with points.

So the points makes a person understand-- And I mentioned this, the, the, the dots and the di-diacritics were introduced by Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib through, uh, his scholar Abul Aswad ad-Du'ali because the Quran was not written with dots or diacritics.

The Arabs u- w- used to, uh, easily read the Arabic text without dots through the meaning of, uh, uh, the, the sentence itself.

But as the Islamic empire expanded and, uh, Imam Ali went to Kufa, he left Medina and went to Kufa, it was difficult for non-Arabs to read the, the Quran.

So Imam Ali, he told Abul Aswad ad-Du'ali and, and the scholars to introduce the dots, and later on, the tashki.

So by using the dots, the nuqat, the Arabic words came into life.

So the verbal forms of it, naqqaqa, to dot.
