Learning objectiveDerive the imperative from the second-person jussive imperfect.
Core rule
Make the second-person imperfect jussive, remove the imperfect prefix, and add hamzat al-waṣl if needed: تَنْصُرْ → اُنْصُرْ.
يُصَاغُ الأَمْرُ مِنْ مُضَارِعِ الْمُخَاطَبِ الْمَجْزُومِ بِحَذْفِ حَرْفِ الْمُضَارَعَةِ، وَيُؤْتَى بِهَمْزَةِ الْوَصْلِ إِنِ احْتِيجَ إِلَيْهَا.
Explanation
تَنْصُرُ becomes تَنْصُرْ in the jussive. Remove ت to get نْصُرْ. Because Arabic cannot begin with a still ن, add Hamzat al-Wasl: اُنْصُرْ. Apply the same logic to the remaining five مخاطب forms.
Start with أَنْتَ تَنْصُرُ. Jussive: تَنْصُرْ. Removing ت gives نْصُرْ, which cannot begin with a still consonant, so hamzat al-waṣl gives اُنْصُرْ.
