رُتْبَةrank in Arabic

Example sentences

• فما أظنك في ذلك تبلغ رتبة ابن تيمية ولا والله تقربها،

  So I do not think you in that will reach the rank of Ibn Taymiyyah, nor by God will you come close to it,

  رُتْبَةَ — the rank. This noun, the rank-of, is the accusative object of 'reach' and the head of a possessive pairing owning the name that follows. It owns 'Ibn Taymiyyah' by adjacency, so the chain reads 'the rank of Ibn Taymiyyah'.

  From: Unity Over Partisanship →

• وارتقى في الصلاح والمعرفة إلى أفضل رتبة،

  and ascended in piety and knowledge to the highest rank,

  رُتْبَةٍ — rank. This owner noun closes the 'highest of rank' pairing, so it takes the governed ending, and its bare marking makes it indefinite, 'a rank'. It names what the superlative measures.

  From: Raised in the Prophet’s Household →
