Example sentence

ولكنك فعلت ليقال جواد، فقد قيل، ثم أُمر به فسُحب على وجهه ثم ألقي في النار

But you did it so that he would be called generous; so it was said. Then an order was issued about him; he was dragged on his face and then thrown into the fire.

فَسُحِبَ so he was dragged

This puts fa- 'so/then' on a past passive verb 'was dragged'. The passive comes from reshaped vowels, not a helper word, so the man receives the dragging while the doers stay unnamed. The fa- chains it as the next consequence after the order, continuing the grim sequence of punishment.
