Example sentences

• وَلِهَذَا كَانَ الله أَشد فَرحا بتوبة العَبْد من الفاقد لراحلته عَلَيْهَا طَعَامه وَشَرَابه فِي ارْض دوية ملهكة إِذا نَام آيسا مِنْهَا ثمَّ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَوَجَدَهَا

  And for this reason, Allah is more delighted with the repentance of His servant than one who finds his lost mount, upon it his food and drink, in a barren, dangerous land after sleeping in despair of it, then waking to find it.

  الْفَاقِدِ — the one who lost. This noun carries 'the' and sits in the genitive because the comparison word before it governs it. It names the second side of the comparison, the man who lost his mount, as a definite description.
