Arabic vocabulary
فَرَضَ is how you say “obligatory” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وعقيب الخمس ، في أن يصلحك ويوفقك والزم ولا بد آية الكرسي في دبر الصلوات المفروضة ،
And after the five prayers, to guide and aid you, and always adhere to Ayat al-Kursi at the end of the obligatory prayers,
المَفْرُوضَةِ — the obligatory. This is an adjective, 'the obligatory', and the al- makes it definite to match the noun it describes. An Arabic adjective trails its noun and copies its definiteness and ending; here it agrees with 'the prayers' in the same possessed ending, specifying which prayers.
