Example sentence

ثم أقام سبحانه البرهان القاطع على صدق رسوله

Then He, Exalted, established the decisive proof of the truthfulness of His Messenger.

الْقَاطِعَ the decisive

This adjective, decisive, follows and describes the proof, matching it in accusative and definiteness. Arabic places the describing word after its noun and copies the noun's case and 'the', so this one inherits the accusative even though it sits a word later.
