Arabic vocabulary
How to say “correct” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَإِذَا بَلَّغَ الرَّسُولُ ذَلِكَ صَحَّ أَنْ يُقَالَ قَالَ الرَّسُولُ كَذَا، وَهَذَا قَوْلُ الرَّسُولِ،
Therefore, when the Messenger conveyed this, it is correct to say: 'The Messenger said such', and this is the Messenger's word,
صَحَّ — it is correct. Past-tense verb used impersonally, 'it became correct/valid'. There is no named doer; the verb states that something is sound, and what is valid is spelled out in the clause that follows. English would use a 'it is correct that...' frame.
From: The Messenger as Conveyor of Revelation →OpenArabic teaches words like صح through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
