Example sentences
وأن تكون موافقة للشريعة،
And that they are in accordance with the Sharia,
لِلشَّرِيعَةِ — with the Sharia. 'Li-' (to/with) fused with 'the Sharia', naming what the deed must agree with; the preposition governs the genitive. The pairing of 'agreeing' plus this 'li-' is how Arabic says 'in conformity to' something.
