Arabic vocabulary
أَحْيَا is how you say “gives life” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
فَسَادٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا وَمَنْ أَحْيَاهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا
Corruption in the earth, so as if he killed the people entirely, and whoever revived it, so as if he revived the people entirely.
أَحْيَا — he revived. A past-tense verb in the causative (form-IV) pattern 'gave life to/revived', the verb inside the 'as if he revived...' simile. The form-IV shape carries the 'cause to live' meaning. The 'he' subject is inside the verb, and it governs the object 'the people' next.
