Example sentences

• فيستنفد حبه من قلب العَبْد قُوَّة الْحبّ كلهَا بحب مَا عرفه من صِفَات جماله ونعوت كَمَاله فَيُصْبِح فؤاد عَبده فَارغًا إِلَّا من محبته،

  So His love consumes all the strength of love in the heart of the servant due to the love of what he knows of His beauty and the descriptions of His perfection. Thus, the servant's heart becomes empty except for His love.

  فَيَسْتَنْفِدُ — so will consume. 'Fa-' (so) plus a present-tense form-X verb 'uses up / exhausts', its subject coming next. The 'seek-to-the-end' shape gives 'drains entirely'.
