Example sentences
وَالسِّيَاطُ لَا تُؤْلِمُ بَعْدَ انْقِضَائِهَا،
And the lashes do not hurt after they end.
وَالأَسْوَاطِ — and the lashes. This joins the linking 'and' to a definite plural naming the lashes; the 'and' chains to the prior simile. As a non-human plural it will take singular feminine agreement on its verb, an Arabic regularity.
