بَرِيءfree

Example sentences

• وَقَالَ يَقُولُ اللهُ مَنْ عَمِلَ عَمَلًا أَشْرَكَ مَعِي فِيهِ غَيْرِي فَهُوَ لِلَّذِي أَشْرَكَ وَأَنَا مِنْهُ بَرِيءٌ

  And he said: 'Allah says: Whoever does a deed in which he associates someone else with Me, it is for the one he associated, and I am free from it.'

  بَرِيءٌ — am free. A bare indefinite predicate adjective, 'free/innocent', completing a verbless 'I am free' statement. Arabic supplies no 'am'; placing the subject pronoun and this adjective together states it, and its indefinite ending fits the predicate role.
