فَقَالَتْ أَنَّ زَوْجَهَا سَافَرَ وَلَهُ شَرِيكٌ
She said that her husband had gone away and that he had a partner.
زَوْجَهَا — her husband. A noun 'husband' with a tail pronoun 'her' welded on, so 'her husband' is one word. It is also the noun seized by the complement particle before it, so it takes the object-style case that particle imposes. The attached 'her' points back to the speaking woman.
