How to say “repentance” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَلِهَذَا كَانَ بِعَضِّ الشُّيُوخِ إِذَا أَمَرَ مُتَّبِعِيهِ بِالتَّوْبَةِ
For this reason, when some of the sheikhs would order their followers to repent,
بِالتَّوْبَةِ — to repentance. The preposition 'with/to' fused to a definite noun 'the repentance', which it forces into the genitive. It marks what the followers are being ordered toward.
