مَحْضٌpure

Example sentences

• وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ الْعَالِمُ الْمَحْضُ لِنَفْسِهِ

  And perhaps the pure scholar said to his self:

  الْمَحْضُ — the pure. An adjective made definite by its own al- so it can attach to the definite noun before it, and it copies that noun's doer-style nominative ending. The matching definiteness and ending are the grammatical glue tying this quality to the scholar.
