Example sentences

• وإن كثرت سيئاته عوقِبَ بقدرها، ثم تُخرجه بقيةُ حسناته ولو كانت مثقال ذرّة؛ إذ إن الإيمان لا ينعدم مع وجود أصلٍ منه

  And if his bad deeds are numerous, he is punished according to them, then the rest of his good deeds deliver him, even if they are the weight of an atom, for faith does not vanish as long as a trace of it remains.

  يَنْعَدِمُ — vanish. Present 'is annihilated, ceases to be', subject 'it' inside (faith). The form (in- plus the root) is the 'undergo, come to nothing' pattern — faith does not simply blink out.
