مَشْرُوعٌprescribed

Example sentences

• هذا هو الصوم المشروع، لا مجرد الإمساك عن الطعام والشراب

  This is the prescribed fasting, not merely abstaining from food and drink.

  الْمَشْرُوعُ — prescribed. A passive participle 'legislated / prescribed' trailing its noun, definite and nominative to agree — the fast that the Law lays down. Arabic puts the describer after the described, the agreement marking the bond.

• لأن الاعتدال مشروع

  Because moderation is prescribed.

  مَشْرُوعٌ — is prescribed. This is a passive participle used as the predicate of the 'because that...' clause, a noun-like word naming something that has had an action done to it, here 'made lawful'. Its base nominative shape is the predicate side of the equation, which the bracing particle leaves in the nominative even as it forces the subject into the accusative.
