Example sentences

• وخف التعطيل فإنه إذا اعتقد آذى المشبهة عبدة الأصنام وإبراهيم يجعلهم جذاذا والمعطلة يدخلون بينكم ويتخللون ثم يتسللون منكم لواذا،

  And fear negation, for if it is believed, it harms those who liken, the worshippers of idols, and Ibrahim made them fragments. The deniers infiltrate among you, intermingle and then slip away from you unnoticed.

  وَإِبْرَٰهِيمُ — and Ibrahim. This is wa- joined to a proper name, starting a fresh clause about Ibrahim. The wa- here resets to a new statement rather than coordinating a list, and the name stands as the subject of the verb that follows.

• فَجَأَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ

  Then Abraham came.

  إِبْرَاهِيم — Abraham. This is a personal name and the doer of the coming verb before it, sitting after its verb in the verb-first order. Its subject-form ending marks it as the one who came. Used as a name, it takes ordinary case-marking.
