The answer

The majestic word (Allah) is a declinable noun. It is in the nominative case (marfu‘) if it is a subject (mubtada’) or preceded by a nominative agent. It is in the accusative case (mansub) if it is preceded by an accusative agent. Its letter 'lam' is pronounced with a heavy, thick sound (taghliz) if it is preceded by a fatḥah or a ḍammah, and it is pronounced with a light, thin sound (tarqiq) if it is preceded by a kasrah, regardless of whether the kasrah is original or circumstantial.
