Example sentences

• قَالَ تَعَالَى وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا

  He (Allah) said: 'And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, to abide in it, and Allah's wrath is upon him, and He has cursed him and prepared for him a great punishment.'

  عَظِيمًا — great. An adjective 'great/immense' describing 'a punishment', matching it in being indefinite and in the accusative (object) form. Arabic adjectives follow their noun and agree with it in definiteness and case, which is why this also lacks al- and takes the object ending. It intensifies the severity of the prepared punishment.
