Arabic vocabulary
How to say “hands of” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
يَا من غذى بلبان الْبر وقلب بأيدي الألطاف
O one who was nurtured with the milk of righteousness and turned by hands of grace.
بِأَيْدِي — by hands of. 'Bi-' (by) fused with a plural 'hands', first term of an 'of' pairing — 'by the hands of grace'; it governs the genitive. The 'bi-' marks the instrument; the plural 'hands' loses its final 'n' in the 'of' pairing.
