عُقُوبَاتُpunishments

Example sentences

• وَمَنْ خُفِّيَ عُقُوبَاتُهُمْ سَلْبُ حَلَاوَةِ الْمُنَاجَاةِ،

  And among their hidden punishments is the deprivation of the sweetness of private supplication.

  عُقُوبَاتُهُمْ — their punishments. A plural noun with -hum ('their') glued to its end naming whose hidden punishments these are. It stands as the topic of this hidden-penalty clause, and the attached pronoun ties it back to the same people whose faults the passage keeps cataloguing.
