Example sentence

بَاطِنُهُمْ كَظَواهِرِهِمْ؛

Their inward is like their outward appearance.

كَظَواهِرِهِمْ like their outward appearance

This opens with the ka- prefix, a particle of resemblance meaning 'like/as', which sets up a comparison and governs the noun it rides on. That noun also carries -hum ('their'), so the whole word reads as the yardstick the inner self is measured against: their outward appearance, with the ka- doing the equating that English needs a separate 'like' for.
