Example sentences

والأفضلُ أن تجمعَ اللفظَ والحضور تردِّد لا إلهَ إلا الله وأنت تفكّ قيودَ قلبِك من كلِّ معبودٍ باطلٍ صورة، مال، هوى
And it is better to combine the utterance and presence: you repeat 'None is worthy of worship except Allah' while freeing your heart from all false gods: images, wealth, desires.
إِلَهَ — worthy of worship. 'god', locked in the accusative by that absolute 'la' — 'no god whatsoever'. The 'la plus bare accusative noun' frame is Arabic's strongest, most total negation.
