مُسْتَعِدّready

Example sentences

• فَإِنْ بَاغَتْهُ الْمَوْتُ، يُرَى مُسْتَعِدًّا،

  If death suddenly overtakes him, he will be found ready.

  مستعدًّا — ready. An adjective in the object (accusative) form, used here as the state the man is found in after the perception-style passive verb. Arabic puts such a descriptor in the accusative to name the condition something is observed to be in, so it pins 'ready' onto him as how he is discovered.
