Example sentence

فيقول بعض الناس لبعض أبوكم آدم، ويأتونه فيقولون يا آدم أنت أبو البشر، خلقك الله بيده، ونفخ فيك من روحه، وأمر الملائكة، فسجدوا لك وأسكنك الجنة،

Some of the people will say to others: "Your father Adam," and they will go to him and say: "O Adam, you are the father of humanity. Allah created you with His hand, breathed into you of His spirit, commanded the angels, and they prostrated to you and placed you in Paradise."

وَنَفَخَ and breathed

The wa- on the front is the linking 'and', continuing God's actions. The past-tense verb carries 'he' inside it, so it reads 'and he breathed', keeping the same subject across the chain of deeds without restating it.
