Example sentences

• فَيُوجب لَهُ شُهُود صِفَات الإلهية الْمحبَّة الْخَاصَّة والشوق إِلَى لِقَائِه

  Thus, witnessing divine attributes obliges him to have special love and longing to meet Him…

  فَيُوجِبُ — Thus obliges. 'Fa-' (so) plus a present-tense causative (form IV) verb 'makes necessary / brings about', its subject coming next. The result: the witnessing necessitates something.

• فَإِنْ قَالَ قَائِلٌ ذِكْرُ حِكَايَاتِ الْحُمْقَىٰ وَالْمَغْفِلِينَ يُوجِبُ الضَّحْكَ،

  If someone says: telling the stories of fools and the gullible causes laughter,

  يُوجِبُ — causes. A present-tense causative verb (the 'makes/forces it to happen' pattern), with its subject ('it', the telling) built in. So the long subject-phrase before it is what causes the laughter, and the verb supplies the 'brings about' action.

• وَالْكَرَمُ يُوجِبُ الْمُسَامَحَةَ،

  And generosity requires forgiveness.

  يُوجِبُ — requires. A present-tense verb, 'he/it' form, with the doer being 'generosity' named just before it. The point worth noticing is that its subject is that abstract noun, not a person, so the sentence treats a quality as if it actively imposes something. It then governs the noun after it as the thing required.
