How to say “reducing” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
ومن سُنَنِه التسميةُ، وتقديمُ اليُمنى على اليُسرى، والمُوالاةُ، وتخفيفُ التراب إذا كان كثيرًا، وألّا يُكَرِّر المسح
Among its Sunnahs: saying 'Bismillah', preferring the right over the left, continuity, lightening the dust if it is excessive, and not repeating the wiping.
وَتَخْفِيفُ — and lightening. A fourth sunnah joined by 'and' — 'the lightening of...' — an action-noun heading an 'of' pair with 'the dust.' It recommends shaking off excess earth, as the condition next adds.
