Example sentences
لَا يُوزَنُ بِهِ رِجْلٌ إِلَّا رَجَحَ بِهِ
No leg is weighed with it without tipping the balance.
رِجْلٌ — a leg. An indefinite noun (no 'the'), and despite the passive earlier it is the thing actually weighed, so it acts as the stand-in subject the passive verb agrees with. Being indefinite, it reads as 'any leg', keeping the statement general.
