Arabic vocabulary
صَرْع is how you say “fall” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَمَنْ صَرَعَ جُنْدَ الشَّيْطَانِ صَرَعَ الشَّيْطَانَ
And whoever is struck down by the troops of Satan is struck down by Satan.
صَرْعٍ — being felled. A verbal noun, the name of the action of felling itself rather than a finished verb. Arabic uses such action-nouns to talk about the deed in the abstract, and here it carries the 'being thrown down' idea into the conditional.
