عَوَاقِبُoutcomes

Example sentences

• وَتَلَمَّحَ الْعَوَاقِبَ

  And it foresaw the outcomes.

  الْعَوَاقِبَ — the outcomes. 'al-' = 'the'; object — the '-a' accusative ending marks it.

• وستر العواقب فكم مطرود في حلل التعبد يميس،

  And He concealed the consequences, so how many rejected are adorned in the garments of devotion, swaying.

  العَوَاقِبَ — the consequences. This definite plural noun is the thing acted upon and sits in the object ending. The 'the' marks the outcomes as known, and the object ending shows they receive the concealing rather than perform it.
