Example sentence

سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول انطلق ثلاثة نفر ممن كان قبلكم حتى آواهم المبيت إلى غار فدخلوه،

I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, say: 'Three men from those before you set out, and night forced them to take shelter in a cave. They entered it.'

نَفَرٍ men

This noun is the thing being counted by 'three', so it appears in the singular-shaped 'of' (genitive) form that this counting pattern requires, even though it means several people. It completes the number phrase as the head subject of the verb.
