  النِّظَامِيَّةِ — Nizamiyya. An adjective formed by adding an '-iyy' ending to a base name, the Arabic way of making 'belonging to / named after'. It agrees with the school it describes in definiteness and genitive case, completing the institution's proper name. The agreement endings tie it firmly to the school noun before it.
