قَبْلَهَا is how you say “before them” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
Example sentences
إِلَّا فِي أَيَّامِ الْجِهَادِ وَقَبْلَهَا بِمُدَّةٍ
Except during the days of jihad and for some time before them.
وَقَبْلَهَا — and before them. The opening 'wa-' is the coordinating 'and', joining this whole time-phrase to the earlier one so both stand under the same exception. The attached '-ha' (them/it) is a pronoun glued to the end of 'before', and it points back to the days mentioned a moment ago, so the meaning is 'before those days'.
