Example sentences
وَقَالَ يَقُولُ اللهُ مَنْ عَمِلَ عَمَلًا أَشْرَكَ مَعِي فِيهِ غَيْرِي فَهُوَ لِلَّذِي أَشْرَكَ وَأَنَا مِنْهُ بَرِيءٌ
And he said: 'Allah says: Whoever does a deed in which he associates someone else with Me, it is for the one he associated, and I am free from it.'
غَيْرِي — someone else. A noun meaning 'other than (Me)' with an attached 'my' on its end. It names the wrongly-associated party and serves as the object of 'associates', so one word says 'someone other than Me'.
