Example sentences

• الثامن أنه سبحانه دعا الانسان إلى النظر فيما خلق منه ليرده عن تكذيبه بما أخبر به

  The eighth point is that He, glorified be He, invited humans to reflect on what He created them from to dissuade them from denying what He informed them of.

  خُلِقَ — He created. This is a past-tense passive verb, 'was created', where the maker is unstated. Arabic marks the passive by reshaping the inner vowels, not by adding a helper word, which lets the focus rest on the thing created rather than on the Creator here.

  خُلِقَ — was created. This verb is in the passive: the man does not create, he is created, with the real creator left unnamed. Arabic does not add a helper word like 'was'; it marks the passive by shifting the vowels inside the verb, so the form looks close to its active twin but flips who acts and who receives.

  خُلِقْتُ — I was created. This verb is in its passive shape with a built-in 'I' subject, so the speaker is the one who underwent creation rather than performing it. Arabic marks the passive by changing the inner vowels, not by adding a 'was' word, which is why one form carries 'I was created'.

Arabic builds the passive by changing the inner vowels rather than adding a helper verb. It fills the relative clause opened by the preceding 'for which', naming the purpose he was shaped toward.
