Example sentences

• أَنَّ الْشَّيْطَانَ لَمْ يُكَابِدْ شَيْئًا أَشَدَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ مُؤْمِنٍ عَاقِلٍ

  That the devil did not struggle more fiercely with anything than with a sensible believer.

  أَشَدَّ — more intense. This is a comparative form, 'more intense', describing the manner of the struggle, and the thing it is measured against is introduced by the comparative min ('than') that follows. It sets up the contrast at the line's core, the sensible believer being the hardest. It modifies the struggling as 'fiercer'.
