Arabic vocabulary
عَصَمَ is how you say “adhere” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
واعتصمت مع ذلك بالكتاب والسنة وأصول السلف،
And you cling with that to the Book and the Sunnah and the principles of the pious predecessors,
وَاعْتَصَمْتَ — and you cling. The conjunction adds a second condition-verb in the past, you held fast, on a reflexive pattern meaning to grip something for protection, with 'you' marked. It continues the 'if' frame from the previous sentence, so it too reads as a hypothetical condition.
