Example sentence

فإذا أراد العبد أن يصلح قلبه، فليقطع هذه القواطع،

If the servant wants to repair his heart, let him cut these obstacles,

فَلْيَقْطَعْ let him cut

This is a command aimed at a third person, 'let him cut', built by prefixing a command-marker to the present verb so its ending clips short. Arabic has no separate word like English 'let'; it folds the order into the verb's own shape, and the prefixed connector ties it back as the result of the 'if'.
