From Ten Proofs of Resurrection

فقام أحدهم فقال بعد أن حمد الله وأثنى عليه

One of them stood up and said, after praising Allah and thanking Him:

أَحَدُهُمْ one of them

This is 'one' joined to the attached pronoun 'them', making 'one of them'. The pairing is a partitive possessive: 'one' is owned by the group the suffix points back to. As the doer of 'stood up' it is the delayed subject, in the nominative, naming who rose.

From Justice in the Field

أَحَدُهُمَا الْعَبَّاسُ لِصَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ، وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ،

One of them, Al-Abbas, performed the noon prayer, and Abu Bakr led the people in prayer.

أَحَدُهُمَا one of them

A noun, 'one', with an attached dual pronoun, 'of the two of them', built onto its end; the dual suffix specifically marks a pair, not a plural. One word names one member and points back to two referents.

From Prayer During Illness

وَلِهَذَا لَا يَكْفِيُ أَحَدُهُمَا فِي عِبَادَةِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى

For this reason, neither of them suffices in the worship of God Most High.

أَحدهمَا one of them

The noun 'one' carries a tail -huma, Arabic's special 'them two' pronoun for exactly a pair. That dual suffix shows the reference is to two specific items mentioned earlier, son and friend, so the word means 'one of the two' with the count baked into the pronoun.

From Faith and Worship

قَالَ أَخَافُ مِنْ شَيْئَيْنِ أَحَدُهُمَا اِسْتِعَاذَةُ الْمُسْتَعِيذِينَ وَالثَّانِيُ شُعَاعُ مَعْرِفَةِ الصَّادِقِينَ

He said, "I fear two things: one of them is the seeking of refuge by those who seek refuge, and the other is the radiance of the knowledge of the truthful ones."

أَحَدُهُمَا one of them

A noun 'one' carrying a '-huma' fused on, and that suffix is itself a dual pronoun, 'of the two of them', matching the pair just mentioned. So 'one of the two' rides in a single word, with the dual suffix tracking back to the two feared things. Arabic again folds 'two' into the ending.

From Seeking Refuge from the Devil

فَقَالَ لِيَّ أَحَدُهُمْ يَا أَبَ الْقَاسِمُ أَنتَ

Then one of them said to me, "O Abu al-Qasim, are you?"

أَحَدُهُمْ one of them

A noun ('one') joined to '-hum' ('of them') to mean 'one of them'. This is a partitive link: it singles out one member out of the previously mentioned group of three, and that one is the speaker who is talking.

أَحَدُهُمَا أَنَّ المَوَاعِظَ كَالسِّيَاطِ،

أَحَدُهُمَا the first of the two

This noun carries an attached 'of-them-two' ending, the dual pronoun for exactly two things. It points back to the two reasons just announced, picking out the first of that pair.

There is no one among those I narrated from who is better than all the people of our time.

أَحَدُ one

وَأَحَدُكُمْ يَسْرِقُ أَوْزًا جَارِهِ

And one of you steals his neighbor's geese.

وَأَحَدُكُمْ and one of you

A linking 'and' is fused to a word meaning 'one' that carries a tail pronoun 'you all', so 'one of you' is packed into one word. The 'and' joins this clause onto the sermon's flow, and the plural 'you' addresses the whole congregation. As the subject it takes the naming case, picking out a single person from the group.

From Stories of Prophetic Judgments

يَحْضُرُ أَحَدُ هَذِهِ الْمَجَالِسِ

أَحَدُ one
