Example sentences

فقراء المهاجرين أتوا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقالوا ذهب أهل الدثور بالدرجات العلى، والنعيم المقيم
The poor among the emigrants came to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and said: 'The wealthy have taken the highest ranks and everlasting blessings.'
بِالدَّرَجَاتِ — with the ranks. This is 'with' plus 'the ranks' — and the 'bi-' here completes the 'go off WITH' idiom: what the wealthy carried away. So it marks the thing taken, and it governs the noun in the genitive. The noun is a sound feminine plural, 'degrees / ranks'.
