فإذا كثروا وثقل عليهم الحديث، قال إن الأذن مجاجة، وإن القلوب حمضة
When they became many, and the talk became burdensome on them, he said, 'Indeed, the ears become tired, and indeed, the hearts become sour.'
الأُذُنَ the ears
Definite by al' and in the accusative -a because the 'indeed' particle opens the clause and grips it, though it is the topic.
فإن الأذن مجة والقلب حمض
For the ear grows bored and the heart grows weary
الأُذُنَ the ear
Definite by al' and in the accusative -a because the 'indeed' particle grips it as its subject, though it is the topic of its clause.
فإن الأذن مجاجة والقلب ذو تقلب
For the ear grows weary and the heart is fickle.
الأُذُنَ the ear
This is 'the ear' with the attached 'al-' marking it as definite, a specific known thing rather than just any ear. It carries an accusative ending here not because it is an object but because the emphasis word inna in front of it grammatically pulls the following noun into that case. So its shape is being governed from a distance by that earlier particle.
إن الأذن مجاجة والقلب حمض
Indeed, the ear grows weary and the heart grows weary.
الأُذُنَ the ear
This is 'the ear', definite through 'al-'. It is the topic of the emphasis sentence, and it wears the accusative ending purely because the particle 'inna' immediately before it requires that case of the following noun. Its meaning is the subject; its ending is governed by the particle.
