Example sentence

وَيُقَاسُ عَلَى قُرْبِ الْوَالِدَيْنِ مِنَ الْوَلَدِ

And it is compared to the closeness of the parents to the child.

وَيُقَاسُ and it is compared

A present-tense verb in the passive: the prefix wa- ('and') links it to the prior point, but the key grammar is the passive vowelling — the subject undergoes the comparing, nobody is named as the one who compares. Arabic marks this not with a helper verb like English 'is' but by reshaping the vowels inside the verb itself.
