Arabic vocabulary
How to say “recompense” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وأما الثواب فأيِّس منه ولا تأمن العقاب إلا بمثاب
As for reward, give up hope of it, and do not feel safe from punishment except through repentance.
بِمَثَابٍ — with a recompense. The 'bi-' marks the one safeguard the exception allows — 'by a returning [to God] / repentance,' indefinite, in the -i form. The only security against punishment: turning back. Otherwise, no safety from logic's spiritual peril.
From: Revelation Over Philosophy →OpenArabic teaches words like مَثَابٌ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
