It is said to him.

يُقَالُ it is said

This is the passive form of 'to say': the verb has no named doer, so it means 'it is said' with the speaker left unmentioned. Arabic marks the passive by changing the vowels inside the verb rather than adding a helper word, which is why it looks close to its active twin but means 'gets said'. The point is delivered without saying who delivers it.

From A Mother's Forgiveness

فِي جَبَلٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ ثَوْرٌ،

In a mountain called Thawr,

يُقَالُ is called

This is an impersonal passive used to give a name, 'is called', with no stated agent, people in general do the calling. Arabic shapes the passive through inner vowels, not a helper verb; the form launches a describing clause, 'a mountain THAT is called ...'.

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ لِي اِرْفَعْ مُحَمَّدُ،

Then it will be said to me, 'Rise, Muhammad.'

يُقَالُ it will be said

This is the passive form of the verb: the saying is received, with no stated speaker, 'it is said'. Arabic marks the passive by altering the inner vowels of the verb rather than adding a helper word. Here the future-narrative sense gives 'it will be said', introducing the command spoken to the narrator.

From Intercession on Judgment Day

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ اِرْفَعْ مُحَمَّدُ، وَقُلْ يُسْمَعُ، وَسَلْ تُعْطَهْ، وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ،

Then it is said: "Rise, Muhammad; say, it is heard; ask and you will be given; intercede and you will be granted intercession."

يُقَالُ it is said

This is a passive verb: the saying is received with no named speaker, so the focus falls on the words being spoken rather than on who speaks them. Arabic builds this passive by reshaping the internal vowels of the verb rather than adding a helper like English 'is', which is why it looks close to its active twin but assigns the doer to nobody in particular.

From Intercession on Judgment Day

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ اِرْفَعْ مُحَمَّدُ، قُلْ يُسْمَعُ، وَسَلْ تُعْطَى، وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعُ،

يُقَالُ it will be said

A passive verb: the saying is reported with no named speaker, so attention stays on the words rather than the sayer. Arabic forms this passive by reshaping the verb's internal vowels instead of adding a helper like 'is', which is why the doer simply disappears from the grammar.

And there was a man among the Children of Israel named Jurayj.

يُقَالُ was called

A passive-shaped verb 'was called', built by changing the vowels inside the verb rather than adding a helper word. Because no doer is named, it just reports that people called him so, opening the clause that gives his name.

And it is said: he submits to God; that is, he worships God, obeys Him, and submits to Him.

وَيُقَالُ and it is said

يُقَالُ it is said
