Arabic vocabulary
هَوانِ is how you say “abasement” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَأَنْزَلَهُ إِلَى دَارِ الْذُّلِّ وَالْهَوانِ وَالْبَلَاءِ وَالْاِمْتِحَانِ
And He sent him down to the abode of humiliation, abasement, affliction, and trial.
وَالْهَوانِ — and abasement. The 'wa-' couples 'abasement' onto 'humiliation' as the next item in the list of the abode's qualities. It shares the genitive ending of the chain; the connector here builds a string of paired traits, not a single 'X of Y'.
