Arabic vocabulary
How to say “beloved” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
قلت يا رسول الله لأن أعافى فأشكر أحب إلي من أن أبتلى فأصبر،
I said, O Messenger of God, being well and grateful is more beloved to me than being tested and patient.
أَحَبُّ — more beloved. This is a comparative form meaning 'more beloved', built on a fixed pattern Arabic uses for 'more/most'. It is the predicate of the sentence, telling you which of the two options ranks higher, and it pairs with the 'than' word later to complete the comparison.
