How to say “destruction” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
Example sentences
وأنه لو تقول عليه لما أقره ولعاجله بالإهلاك
And that if he had falsely attributed to Him, He would not have approved it and would have hastened to destroy him.
بِالْإِهْلَاكِ — to destroy him. The preposition 'bi-' here marks the instrument or means, with destruction as the means by which the hastening would happen; it forces the genitive on its noun. So 'bi-' answers 'by what', tying the swift action to annihilation as its method.
