Example sentences

• لَا يُسَامُ مَنْ طَلَبَ اَلْفِقْهَ طُولَ دَهْرِهِ

  One should not reproach anyone who seeks jurisprudence throughout his life.

  اَلْفِقْهَ — jurisprudence. Definite by 'al-' and serving as the object of the seeking-verb, hence the accusative. Arabic flags it as the thing sought by its case-ending. The article frames it as the recognised body of religious-legal knowledge, the specific pursuit being praised.
