Arabic vocabulary
ذَاتِهِ is how you say “itself” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
الوعظ فن بذاته يحتاج إلى مشاركة جيدة في العلم،
Preaching is an art in itself that requires a good share of knowledge.
بِذَاتِهِ — in itself. This is a set phrase built from 'bi-', the word for 'essence/self', and an attached 'its': literally 'by its essence', understood as 'in its own right, intrinsically'. The pronoun loops back to the art just named. It is one idiomatic unit, not a literal 'with its self'.
