فَرَّقَbroke apart

Example sentences

• والثاني وهو الأرجح أن تسوية بنانه إعادتها كما كانت بعد ما فرقها البلى في التراب

  And the second, which is more likely, is that restoring his fingertips refers to making them as they were after decay had dispersed them in the dust.

  فَرَّقَهَا — dispersed them. This past-tense verb in the doubled-middle intensive pattern means 'scattered them apart', with an attached object pronoun pointing to the fingertips. The doubling adds force or thoroughness, and the subject doing it is named in the next word, after the verb in standard Arabic order.

• وفرق بين الإلفين وكم باتا،

  And He separated between the two close companions, though they stayed together for long,

  وَفَرَّقَ — and He separated. The 'and' joins the clause, and beneath it a past-tense verb on the doubled-middle pattern means 'He parted / set apart thoroughly', with its 'he' subject built in. The intensive shape adds force to the separating, and the verb leads into the 'between' phrase that follows.

• فرق الخلائق بين مرؤوس ورئيس،

  He distinguished the creatures between subordinate and leader.

  فَرَّقَ — He distinguished. A past-tense verb with a built-in 'he' subject; the doer is God from the surrounding praise. It reports a completed act of distinguishing, the singular masculine form agreeing with that understood divine subject.

• فقضى لهم حياة وقضى عليهم مماتا،

  So He decreed for them life, and He decreed upon them death.

  فرق — He separated. Past-tense verb, 'He separated', with its 'He' built in, active voice, God as the doer. The past form states a completed act.
