يَدَينِhands

Example sentences

• يَجِبُ تقديمُ مسحِ الوجهِ على مسحِ اليدين؛ فلو عَكَسَ ناسيًا لم يصحّ على المذهب

  The wiping of the face must precede the wiping of the hands; if reversed inadvertently, it is not valid according to the school of thought.

  اليَدَينِ — the hands. The dual ending '-ayn' carries 'exactly two' — 'the two hands' — the -ayn being the form after a preposition. No separate 'two' is needed; the count is built into the word. Their wipe follows the face's.
