Arabic vocabulary
How to say “associate” in Arabic, with pronunciation and real example sentences from OpenArabic texts.
كَمَا قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى فَمَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا وَلَا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِ أَحَدًا
As Allah, the Exalted, said: 'So whoever hopes for the meeting with his Lord, let him do righteous work and not associate anyone in the worship of his Lord.'
يُشْرِكْ — associate. This verb sits in its shortened command form because of the prohibition before it; that clipped ending is the visible sign it is being forbidden rather than merely described. Its 'he' subject is built in.
From: The Hidden Idolatry →وَقَالَ تَعَالَى إِنَّهُ مَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَأْوَاهُ النَّارُ
And He said: 'Indeed, whoever associates partners with Allah, Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and his abode is the Fire.'
يُشْرِكْ — associates partners. A present-tense verb in its shortened condition form, 'associates partners', its clipped ending marking it as part of an if-clause rather than a plain statement. Its 'he' subject is built in.
