Arabic vocabulary
How to say “gather” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فإن قيل فقد قال تعالى ﴿أَيَحْسَبُ الإِنْسَانُ أَلَّنْ نَجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُ بَلَى قَادِرِينَ عَلَى أَنْ نُسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ﴾
Then if it is said, Allah, the Exalted, stated: 'Does man think that We will not assemble his bones? Yes, We are able to proportion his fingertips.'
نَجْمَعَ — we will not assemble. This present-tense verb carries the 'we' subject inside it and stands in its subjunctive form, its ending changed because of the negating-of-the-future particle just before it. That ending shift is how Arabic signals the verb is governed by that particle rather than standing free.
