Arabic vocabulary
How to say “spend” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وقال ﴿تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنْفِقُونَ﴾
And He said, 'Their sides shun their beds as they call upon their Lord in fear and hope, and from what We have provided them, they spend.'
يُنْفِقُونَ — they spend. This present-tense verb carries a built-in plural 'they' subject, 'they spend'. It is the main verb, with the 'from what we provided them' phrase fronted before it for emphasis on the source of their giving.
