لِأَنَّهُمْbecause they in Arabic

Example sentences

• لِأَنَّهُمْ جَمِيعًا عَلِمُوا وَأَدْرَكُوا وَأَيَّقَنُوا أَنَّ مُعَلِّمَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ

  Because they all knew, perceived, and were certain that their teacher was the Messenger of God.

  لِأَنَّهُمْ — because they. The cause-conjunction 'because' fused with the emphatic 'that' and -hum ('they'), so one word means 'because they ...'. It gives the reason for the preceding point and, through the emphatic 'that' element, forces its pronoun into the object form. It opens the justification clause.
