Example sentence
زين للناس حب الشهوات من النساء والبنين والقناطير المقنطرة من الذهب والفضة والخيل المسومة والأنعام والحرث فللشهوات حيلة غيار،
Beautified for people is the love of desires: from women and children, and heaped-up treasures of gold and silver, and branded horses, and cattle and tilled land; but desires have a deceptive strategy,
حُبُّ the love of
This is the delayed subject of the passive verb above: it is the thing that was beautified, so it carries the subject ending even though it appears after the verb, which Arabic allows freely. It also heads a possessive pairing with the next word, meaning 'the love of...', so it links the feeling to its object.
