جَنْبٌside

Example sentences

• فَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِهِ،

  When the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, was on a mat that had an indentation on its side,

  جَنْبِهِ — his side. A noun 'side' with a single 'his' possessor fused on the end, pointing back to the Prophet rather than the mat; the attached owner keeps it in the 'of' ending after 'in'. Tracking that the 'his' is the Prophet's is part of reading the line.
