Arabic vocabulary
يَوْقِنُ is how you say “is certain of” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
مَا أَعْجَبَ أَمْرُكَ يَا مَنْ يَوْقِنُ بِأَمْرٍ ثُمَّ يَنْسَاهُ،
How astonishing is your affair, O you who are certain of a matter and then forget it,
يَوْقِنُ — is certain of. A present-tense verb carrying its 'he' subject inside it, describing an ongoing habit rather than a single act. Sitting inside the relative clause, it tells you what kind of person is being addressed: one who keeps being certain. The thing he is certain of follows via the preposition.
