Example sentence

يَا بُنَيَّ مَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بِشَيْءٍ أَفْضَلُ مِنَ الْعَقْلِ

O my son, no one has worshipped God by anything better than the intellect.

بِشَيْء by anything

The 'bi-' prefix here marks instrument or means: 'by means of', telling us the channel through which the worship happens. It forces the following 'thing' into the genitive and leaves it indefinite, so it spans 'by anything whatsoever'. This means-phrase is what the comparison 'better than the intellect' then ranks.
