Arabic vocabulary
تُعَارُ is how you say “is lent” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
ذَلِكَ مَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَهَلْ الْمَتَاعُ إِلَّا عَارِيَةٌ تُعَارُ،
That is the provision of worldly life; and is the provision anything but a loan that is lent?
تُعَارُ — is lent. A present-tense verb in the passive — the loan 'is lent', undergoing the action with no lender named. Arabic marks the passive by reshaping the verb's inner vowels, not by an English-style helper. The form drives home that worldly provision is something handed out on loan, to be taken back.
