Arabic vocabulary
How to say “just” in Arabic, with pronunciation and real example sentences from OpenArabic texts.
إن وجدتَ قلبَك ألينَ، ولسانَك أصدقَ، ويَدَك أعدلَ، فذلك ثمرُه
If you find your heart softer, your tongue more truthful, and your hand more just, that is its fruit.
أَعْدَلَ — more just. 'more just', comparative, the description paired with 'hand' — 'find your hand more just'. The triad heart, tongue, hand maps to inner state, speech, action.
From: Remembrance That Reshapes the Heart →العادل في اقضيته لم يخف ولم يجر،
The Just One in His decrees, He neither feared nor acted unjustly,
العَادِلُ — the Just One. The leading 'the' makes this a definite descriptive noun naming a fixed quality, and it sits in the plain subject ending as the topic the sentence is built around. Used of God as a standing attribute, its definite shape marks it as a specific, well-known title rather than a passing description.
