Mohammad went out of the class.
| Command | Present | Past |
| أُدْرُسْ | يَدْرُسُ | دَرَسَ |
| اِجْلِسْ | يَجْلِسُ | جَلَسَ |
| اِذْهَبْ | يَذْهَبُ | ذَهَبَ |
Rules to keep in mind:
If the third letter of the present tense has Kasra or Fatha, the first letter of the imperative will have Kasra. If it is Dhamma, then the first letter of the imperative will also be Dhamma.
