Example sentences

• فيقال يا محمد أدخل من أمتك من لا حساب عليهم من الباب الأيمن من أبواب الجنة وهم شركاء الناس فيما سوى ذلك من الأبواب

  It will be said: "O Muhammad, admit into Paradise from your community those who will not be held accountable, through the right-hand gate of the gates of Paradise, and they will share with the people in what is beyond that from the other gates."

  الْأَيْمَنِ — right-hand. A describing word agreeing with 'the gate' before it, carrying its own 'the' to match, so it reads 'the right-hand (gate)'; Arabic makes an adjective echo its noun's definiteness and case. It pins down which gate.
