Example sentence

اَلْيَوْمُ يَوْمُ الْمَلْحَمَةِ، اَلْيَوْمَ تُسْتَحَلُّ الْكَعْبَةُ

Today is the day of the great battle; today the Kaaba will be desecrated.

تُسْتَحَلُّ will be desecrated

This is the passive form of the verb: the Kaaba undergoes the action ('is made lawful / violated') rather than doing it. Arabic marks the passive not with a helper word like 'is' but by changing the vowels inside the verb, and its feminine shape agrees with 'the Kaaba'.
