Dropping الذي

[StartlePixie]

Hello! I have a question and would appreciate your help.

In Al-Kitaab, it says that when we describe an indefinite noun, we we write complete sentencing without adding any linking words. For example:

تكمت عن فيلم شاهدته

But, I know that there "which" and "that" can be expressed with الذي، التي etc.

Are there specific cases when we use them?

 

[chizinist]

When the noun preceding it is definite.


تكلمت عن فيلم شاهدته
تكلمت عن الفيلم الذي شاهدته

Thank you very much!

When the noun preceding it is definite.

What would you say about the following:

وَقَالَ قَرِينُهُ هَٰذَا مَا لَدَيَّ عَتِيدٌ (23) أَلْقِيَا فِي جَهَنَّمَ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ (24) مَّنَّاعٍ لِّلْخَيْرِ مُعْتَدٍ مُّرِيبٍ (25) الَّذِي جَعَلَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ فَأَلْقِيَاهُ فِي الْعَذَابِ الشَّدِيدِ (26)
(سورة ق)

Maybe this الذي is by itself? Like هو الذي خلق لكم ما في الأرض جميعا?
