Example sentence

فَقَهَرَهُ، وَمَنَعَهُ عَنِ الْوُصُولِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ،

Then he overpowered him and prevented him from reaching the mosque.

فَقَهَرَهُ then he overpowered him

The fa- here is narrative sequence, 'and so', moving the story on to the outcome. The verb is a completed-action 'he overpowered' carrying the object -hu ('him') on the end, so subject and object both ride in one word. The connector marks the result of the grappling.
