ارْفَعْraise

Example sentences

• وحسن الثناء عليه شيئاً لم يفتح على أحد قبلي ثم يقال يا محمد ارفع رأسك، سل تعطه، واشفع تشفع،

  The praise of him was so excellent, something not granted to anyone before me. Then it is said, O Muhammad, raise your head, ask and you will be given, and intercede and your intercession will be accepted.

  ارْفَعْ — raise. A bare command, the imperative shape carrying its own 'you (do it)' with no pronoun, telling him to raise; it opens the run of orders. The 'you' lives in the verb's shape.
