Arabic vocabulary
هَنَأَهُ is how you say “made pleasant for him” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ مَا هَنَأَهُ الْعَيْشُ
And were it not for that, life would not be pleasant for him.
هناه — made pleasant for him. This is a past-tense verb with an attached object '-him' at its end, so one word holds both 'made pleasant' and its object. Working with the preceding negation, it forms the unreal result 'life would not have been pleasant for him'. The '-him' marks the person who would have lacked that ease.
