أحبّmore beloved

Example sentences

• وَلِهَذَا قَالَ أَئِمَّة الْمُسلمين كسفيان الثَّوْريّ أَن الْبِدْعَة أحب إِلَى إِبْلِيس من الْمعْصِيَة

  And this is why the leaders of the Muslims, like Sufyan al-Thawri, said that innovation is more beloved to Iblis than sin.

  أَحَبُّ — more beloved. This is a comparative shape meaning 'more beloved', built into the word from the root to carry 'more' with no separate word. It works as the description completing the reported clause, and its comparison is finished by the 'than' phrase later.
