How to say “pleasure” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
ومعصيته توجب سُكْنى الْجنان ونزول مَحل الرضْوَان
And disobeying him earns dwelling in the gardens and reaching the abode of divine pleasure.
الرِّضْوَانِ — pleasure. This is 'divine pleasure, good acceptance', definite as the owned term, the second noun after 'abode of', so it takes the genitive ending. The pairing builds 'the abode of divine pleasure' by setting the two nouns directly together. It names the reward at the chain's end.
