Arabic vocabulary
عِبَادَاتُ is how you say “acts of worship” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَقَدَرٍ هَمُّهُمْ، وَحِفْظُهُمْ، وَعِبَادَاتُهُمْ، وَغَرَائِبُ عُلُومِهِمْ،
the extent of their concern, their memorization, their acts of worship, and the remarkable aspects of their sciences,
وَعِبَادَاتُهُمْ — their acts of worship. Again wa- adds a parallel item: a plural noun with -hum ('their') attached. The recurring -hum keeps the whole list anchored to the people, and the conjunction continues the catalogue of admired traits. This connector shares the list-building job of the previous ones.
