Example sentence
وَأَنَا مُذّ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةٍ أَصُومُ النَّهَارَ وَأَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ،
And for forty years I have fasted during the day and stood in prayer at night,
أَصُومُ I have fasted
A present-tense verb with 'I' built into its prefix. Under the 'since/for forty years' frame set up earlier, this present reads as a sustained habit reaching from the past into now, which is why English turns it into a 'have fasted' shape. On its own it is a plain present; the time-particle is what stretches it.
