قَبْلُbefore in Arabic

Example sentences

• واستثنى من أولئك من قبل هداه واتبع رضاه

  Except those whom He guided beforehand and who followed His pleasure.

  قَبْلُ — beforehand. This is an adverb meaning 'beforehand', built on a word for 'before' but standing on its own with a fixed ending. It marks that the action of the clause happened in advance; Arabic gives it this set form when its reference point is understood.
