Arabic vocabulary
How to say “his ally” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَكَمْ شَاهَدْتُ وَالْ قَصْرَ وَلِيُّهُ عَدُوُّهُ لَمَّا عُزِلَ
How often have I seen the governor of a palace whose ally became his enemy when he was dismissed!
وَلَيَّهُ — his ally. A noun meaning 'ally/protector', with the suffix -hu ('his', male) attached, so it reads 'his ally'. The attached 'his' points back to the governor. It is the subject of the small clause describing his reversal: this very ally becomes his enemy.
