Example sentence

وَحُكِيَ عَنْ الْجُنَيْدِ رَحْمَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ

And it was narrated about al-Junayd, may God have mercy upon him, that he said:

وحُكيَ and it was narrated

Opens with a narrative 'wa-' carrying the account along, fused to a passive past verb: the story is the thing told, with no named teller, the action landing on the report. Arabic marks the passive by reshaping internal vowels, not by a helper word. So one piece both links and frames 'and it was recounted'.
