Grammar Rules
Past tense verb
عَلَّمَهُۥ (Has taught him) is a past tense verb — the action already happened and is complete.
We translate it in past tense — "did", "created", "said", etc.
Verb form II — intensified
عَلَّمَهُۥ (Has taught him) uses form II (فَعَّلَ) — the middle letter is doubled, which makes the meaning stronger or causative.
The meaning is more intense than the basic form, or means "to make someone do [action]".
Sahih International
Taught to him by one intense in strength [i.e., Gabriel] -
