Arabic vocabulary
How to say “son of” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ
From Anas ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:
بْنِ — son of. Placed between two names, 'son of' ties a man to his father and takes the same -i ending as the name before it, because it describes that name. Arabic strings 'X son of Y' with this one connective doing all the linking.
From: The Vastness of God's Mercy →OpenArabic teaches words like بْنٌ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
