Example sentences
عَالِمٌ عُرِفَ بِالْجِدَالِ فِي الْفِقْهِ، فَاقْتَنَعَ بِرِئَاسَتِهِ،
A scholar who was known for disputation in jurisprudence, so he became content with his leadership,
فاقتنعَ — so he became content. The 'fa-' on the front is the 'and so' of consequence, presenting his contentment as the outcome that follows from the reputation just described. It rides on a past verb holding its own 'he' subject, so the one word both draws the result and names who fell into it.
