Example sentences

• إِنَّ لَهُ لَأَجْرَيْنِ ـ وَجَمَعَ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ ـ إِنَّهُ لَجَاهِدٌ مُجَاهِدٌ،

  Indeed for him are two rewards—and he pressed his two fingers together—indeed he is a striver who exerts himself.

  إِصْبَعَيْهِ — his two fingers. A dual noun, the 'exactly two' form, carrying an attached 'his', so 'his two fingers' is one word. The dual ending supplies the count and the suffix supplies the owner, both folded into the single word that 'between' governs.
