Example sentences

فَذَكَرْتُ الَّذِي قُلْتُ لِحَفْصَةِ وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةِ،
So I mentioned what I had said to Hafsa and Umm Salama,
لِحَفْصَةِ — to Hafsa. The li- riding in front is a preposition meaning 'to', and its job here is to force the following name into the genitive form and mark her as the recipient of the speaking. The whole phrase is built as one word because Arabic glues this short preposition directly onto the noun it governs.
