وَلِّaccept

Example sentences

• فَقَالَ لَهُ فَوَلِّ بِشَرْطِيِ

  So he said to him, "Accept my condition."

  فولي — accept. Read here as a command form, 'take charge of / hold to', with the 'you' addressee carried inside the verb. The exact vowelling is uncertain, but the imperative reading is what fits the demand. The thing to abide by follows in the next word.
