Arabic vocabulary
أَعَدَّ is how you say “prepared” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
قَالَ تَعَالَى وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا
He (Allah) said: 'And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, to abide in it, and Allah's wrath is upon him, and He has cursed him and prepared for him a great punishment.'
وَأَعَدَّ — and He prepared. This fronts wa- 'and' onto a past-tense verb in the intensive (doubled) pattern 'made ready/prepared', continuing the list of consequences. The wa- links it to the cursing; the subject God is understood from the run of the passage. The intensive form stresses a fully-readied preparation of the punishment.
