Arabic vocabulary
عِدَّةٍ is how you say “any limit” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَهُوَ أَنْصَرُ لِصَاحِبِهِ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ بِلَا عِدَّةٍ وَلَا عَدَدٍ
And he is more supportive of his companion than other men, without any limit and without any number.
عِدَّةٍ — any limit. An indefinite noun 'count/numbers (of troops)', governed by the preceding 'without'. Its indefiniteness suits the sweeping denial: not any reckoning of forces at all. It is the first of a paired 'without X and without Y' phrase.
