Example sentences

ومن بايع إماماً فأعطاه صفقة يده، وثمرة قلبه، فليطعه إن استطاع،
And whoever gives allegiance to an Imam, giving him a handshake and sincerity of his heart, let him obey him if he is able,
فَلْيُطِعْهُ — let him obey him. This stacks fa- (so) with the command-marker li- on a verb plus 'him' attached, 'so let him obey him', the li- making a third-person 'let him...' command and forcing the verb into the clipped jussive ending. The suffix marks the leader as the one to be obeyed, completing the conditional's result.
