Arabic vocabulary
How to say “continue” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
أمّا إذا أتمَّ فريضةً بالتيمم ثم استمر وجودُ الماء بعد السلام، بَطَلَ تيممُه فلا يستبيح به نافلةً
If one completed an obligatory prayer with Tayammum and then water became available after the Salam, their Tayammum is void, and they cannot perform a voluntary prayer with it.
اسْتَمَرَّ — remains. A Form X verb, 'kept on / persisted' — the water's being there continued. Its subject, 'the presence of water,' follows; the point is the water remained available, not a fleeting glimpse.
