أَرَأَيْتَ — have you considered. A second-person past verb, 'have you considered / tell me', whose -ta ending marks a single male addressee. Though past in form, this fixed expression launches a thought-experiment, 'suppose...', rather than asking about a real past event. So its job is to set up the hypothetical that follows.
