Example sentences

• والغَائِصُ فِي بَحْرِ فِكْرِهِ عَلَى نَفَائِسِ الدُّرِّ

  And he who plunges into the sea of his thought in search of rare pearls.

  الدُّرِّ — the pearls. A definite noun 'the pearls', the owning term completing 'the rarities of pearls', so it carries the genitive with al-. It closes the metaphorical construct, the of-pairing carrying the relation; it names the prize his deep thinking brings up.
