Example sentences

• فهي ليستْ لفظًا مُنفردًا، بل جملةٌ مُقدَّرة معناها أبدأ عملي باسمِ الله، فأربطُ الفعلَ بالرّب

  it is not an isolated utterance, but an implicit sentence meaning: I begin my action in the name of Allah, thus linking the act to the Lord.

  فَأَرْبِطُ — so I link. 'so I tie' — 'fa' of result plus a first-person present verb. It draws the consequence: by naming God, I bind my act to Him.
