Example sentences

• كل ليلة ينزل سبعون ألف ملك من السماء إلى الأرض إلى مسجد بيت المقدس

  Every night, seventy thousand angels descend from the sky to the earth, to the mosque of Bayt al-Maqdis.

  سَبْعُونَ — seventy. sabun means 'seventy'; the '-una' ending — the subject ('seventy thousand…').

• فقيل لي هذه أمتك، ومعهم سبعون ألفاً يدخلون الجنة بغير حساب ولا عذاب

  And it was said to me: This is your nation, and with them are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without account or punishment.

  سَبْعُونَ — seventy. This is 'seventy', the delayed subject of 'with them [are]...', in the nominative. It is built as a sound plural (the '-una' ending used for the round tens). It pairs with the counted noun next.

  From: Those Who Enter Without Account →
