• وامتناعك ترك وراحة

  And your refraining is simply letting go, which is relief.

  وَرَاحَةٌ — and relief. A second predicate joined on, 'and a rest', so the one subject ('your refraining') gets two descriptions at once. Arabic happily gives a single topic a pair of predicates this way.

• وَإِن حفظته مَعَ إصْلَاح الْوَقْتَيْنِ اللَّذين قبله وَبعده بِمَا ذكرت نجوت وفزت بالراحة واللذة وَالنَّعِيم

  And if you preserve it, along with correcting the periods before and after as I mentioned, you succeed and attain comfort, pleasure, and bliss.

  بِالرَّاحَةِ — with comfort. With the verb 'win through', this 'bi-' is the fixed partner marking the prize, 'win comfort'. Arabic ties 'winning' to this preposition, which governs 'comfort' in the after-preposition ending.
