قِرَاءَةreading in Arabic

Example sentences

• مَا علمت أَن أحدا سمع بِالْجنَّةِ وَالنَّار تَأتي عَلَيْهِ سَاعَة لَا يُطِيع الله فِيهَا بذكرا وَصَلَاة أَو قراة أَو إِحْسَان

  I have not known anyone who has heard of Paradise and Hell to have an hour pass without obeying God through remembrance, prayer, reading, or charity.

  قِرَاءَةٍ — reading. Still governed by the earlier 'by', this indefinite noun stays genitive. It names reading, understood as reciting scripture, as another way the hour is given to obedience.
