How to say “descent” in Arabic, with pronunciation and real example sentences from OpenArabic texts.
فرح إبليس بنزول آدم من الجنة،
Iblis rejoiced at Adam's descent from Paradise.
بِنُزُولِ — at descent. bi- = 'at, with'; nuzul means 'coming down, descent' — the noun after 'bi', heading an 'of…' phrase with the next word.
From: Adam's Descent →ومعصيته توجب سُكْنى الْجنان ونزول مَحل الرضْوَان
And disobeying him earns dwelling in the gardens and reaching the abode of divine pleasure.
وَنُزُولَ — and entrance. This is 'and' joined to 'descent, arrival' heading a possessive pairing with what follows, 'and reaching the abode of...'. It is a verbal noun naming the act as a thing, a second object of 'brings about', so it takes the accusative while owning the next noun.
