Example sentence

ومن غفلات الأعراب أن أعرابيًا دخل مكة فطاف بالكعبة،

From the oversights of the Bedouins: A Bedouin entered Makkah and circumambulated the Ka'bah,

بِالْكَعْبَةِ with the Ka'bah

The bi- here is the special 'around' partner of this verb: 'circled around the Kaaba'. The bi- forces the genitive and ties the circling to its object; some Arabic verbs require such a preposition where English uses a plain object.

From Bedouin Manners
