Arabic vocabulary
How to say “love” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
بَلْ لَا يَسْتَحِقُّ الْمَحَبَّةَ وَالْخُضُوعَ التَّامَّ إِلَّا اللَّهُ
Rather, only God deserves love and complete submission.
الْمحبَّة — the love. The al- makes this the specific 'the love', and its accusative ending marks it as the direct object of 'deserves'. It is the first of two things named as deserved, receiving the verb's action and so wearing the object case.
From: Faith and Worship →OpenArabic teaches words like الْمَحَبَّةَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
