Example sentence

ولا يُنكر أن يكون الله تعالى لطف به،

And it is not denied that Almighty Allah showed kindness to him,

يُنْكَرُ is denied

This is the passive form of the verb: the subject is the thing denied, not the one doing the denying, with no helper word like English 'is'. Arabic marks the passive by reshaping the vowels inside the verb itself, so it looks close to its active twin but means 'gets denied' rather than 'denies'.

إنما يُنكر فعلُه الذي هو كسبه،

What is denied is his action, which is his own doing,

يُنْكَرُ is denied

The passive form again: the subject undergoes the denying rather than doing it. The passive is marked by the inner vowel pattern of the verb, not by any added helper word, so 'gets denied' is read off the shape itself.
