Arabic vocabulary
ذُنُوبِ is how you say “sins” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَفِيهِمْ مَنْ يُبَارِزُ بِالذُّنُوبِ الْعَظِيمَةِ، مَعَ نَوْعِ مَعْرِفَةِ الْمَنَاهِيِ
Among them are those who brazenly commit grave sins while having only a limited knowledge of the prohibitions.
بِالذُّنُوبِ — with the sins. The 'bi-' fused at the front is a linking preposition tying the act of brazen confrontation to its object; with this verb it marks what the sinning is carried out 'with'. It governs the definite plural after it into the 'of'-style ending, naming the grave sins as the instrument of their defiance.
