81:4

[GothiKa]

The word "ut-tilat", what does it mean?

I know utl means devoid or destitue. but what does ut-tilat mean?

[Mr_Jailer]

I think it means 'neglected'.

"And when the pregnant she-camels shall be neglected".

[AbuSadiq]

I think it means 'neglected'.

"And when the pregnant she-camels shall be neglected".

Yeah, that is very true. "to be left on its own. . .!"

[.: Anna :.]

It is the passive of the verb
عطّل
(a form 2 verb). The meaning here is 'to leave idle' so the passive is "to be left idle"
(ie abandoned)

Btw I have to move ur question to the Quran area

The next question of yours... did you mean su'ilat?

as in...

wa idhal mawoodatu su'ilat?

in that case it means "is questioned"

The root is seen hamza lam and once again this verb is in the passive.

eg you have sa'alat which means she asked

سأَلَت
and if you changed the vowelling according to the passive you get :

سُئِلَت
which means she was asked
