دَارِabode

Example sentences

• عباد الله تَفَكَّرُوا فِي إِخْرَاج أبيكم آدم من الْجنَّة دَار الْأمان

  O servants of Allah, reflect upon the expulsion of your father Adam from Paradise, the abode of safety.

  دَارِ — the abode of. This is 'abode, dwelling' heading a possessive pairing with the noun after it, 'the abode of safety', and it stands in apposition to 'the Garden', describing it. As the owner-term it takes its definiteness from the owned word that follows. It restates Paradise by its character.

  دَارِ — the abode of. This is 'abode, dwelling' heading a possessive pairing with what follows, 'the abode of lowliness'. It takes the genitive because the preposition 'to' governs it, while itself owning the next noun. So it is both owned by the preposition and owner of the quality that follows.

  الدَّارِ — the home. Carries al- ('the'), making it specific, and is a feminine noun, which is why the demonstrative before it took its feminine shape. It stands as the owner completing 'other than this home', so it takes the genitive ending. The definiteness points to the known worldly abode being excluded.
