نُسَوِّيmake even

Example sentences

• فإن قيل فقد قال تعالى ﴿أَيَحْسَبُ الإِنْسَانُ أَلَّنْ نَجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُ بَلَى قَادِرِينَ عَلَى أَنْ نُسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ﴾

  Then if it is said, Allah, the Exalted, stated: 'Does man think that We will not assemble his bones? Yes, We are able to proportion his fingertips.'

  نُسَوِّيَ — proportion. This present-tense verb carries the 'we' subject and sits in its subjunctive form because of the 'that' particle before it. The doubled-middle pattern gives the sense of evening out or perfectly shaping, and the altered ending marks it as governed rather than free-standing.
