Example sentences

• بَاعِثُ الدِّينِ بِالإِضَافَةِ إِلَى بَاعِثِ الهَوَى لَهُ ثَلَاثَةُ أَحْوَالٍ

  بِالإِضَافَةِ — with the addition. The bi- prefix is the 'with/by' preposition fused to a noun meaning 'the addition', and the pair forms the front half of the set phrase 'in addition to'. It governs the genitive and waits for the 'to' word that follows to complete the idea of accompaniment.
