Example sentences

• وَأَحَبَّ أَنْ لَا يَنْفِرَ وَيَتْعَبَ قَلْبُهُ أَمَرَهُ بِالصِّدْقِ

  And he preferred that he not drive him away or let his heart grow weary, and he commanded him to be truthful.

  قَلْبُهُ — his heart. A noun 'heart' with a 'his' ending, the subject of 'grow weary', so the word means 'his heart'. The attached possessor points to the follower, not the elder, so tracking the right owner is part of reading it.

  وَقَلْبُ — and the heart. This joins the linker 'wa-' to a noun that opens a parallel sentence ('and the heart...'). The 'wa-' couples it to the previous statement about the House for a side-by-side contrast, and the noun is the topic, taking the subject ending.

  قَلْبَكَ — your heart. This noun has -ka, the 'your' possessor, fused to its end, so one word means 'your heart'. It is the direct object of the command 'humble', in the object form. The possessor folds the addressee into the noun.
