Example sentences
بل هي صنعة بلا ثواب ولا عقاب،
Rather, it is a craft without reward or punishment.
عِقَابٍ — punishment. Genitive, coordinated under 'without', this names the second thing absent: punishment. So the craft brings neither reward nor penalty — morally weightless. Its ending matches 'reward' before it.
