Arabic vocabulary
يُغْتَفَرُ is how you say “is forgiven” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
يُغْتَفَرُ أَمْلَاحُ سَفِينَتِها إِلَى جَذْفٍ وَاصْطِبَارٍ،
The sailor of its ship will be forgiven for his rowing and his steadfast endurance.
يُغْتَفَرُ — will be forgiven. A present-tense verb in the passive — the subject receives forgiveness and no forgiver is named. Arabic builds the passive by reshaping the vowels inside the verb, not by adding an English-style 'is/will be'. So the form tells you the action lands on its subject rather than flowing out from it.
