Example sentence
فقال رسول الله والذي نفسي بيده لو تدومون على ما تكونون عندي وفي الذكر لصافحتكم الملائكة على فرشكم وفي طرقكم، ولكن يا حنظلة ساعة وساعة ثلاث مرات،
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: 'By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, if you remained in the state that you are with me and in remembrance, the angels would shake hands with you in your beds and on your paths. But, O Hanzala, a time and a time.' He repeated this three times.
لَصَافَحَتْكُمُ would shake hands with you
This carries the answer-'la-' of the counterfactual 'if', plus a Form III verb 'shook hands / greeted' (feminine, because its subject 'angels' is a non-human plural), plus '-kum' = 'you' as object — 'the angels WOULD shake hands with you'. The 'la-' marks this as the consequence of the unreal condition.
