Example sentence

بَلَّ يَجْرُونَ عَلَى عَادَاتِهِمْ كَالْبَهَائِمِ،

Rather, they follow their customs like cattle.

كَالْبَهَائِمِ like cattle

The 'ka-' at the front is the comparison link 'like/as', drawing a likeness between these people and cattle. It governs its noun into the 'of'-style ending, and 'al-' makes that noun definite. The whole unit delivers the simile that caps the sentence: they move by habit the way unthinking beasts do.
