How to say “stomach” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ما ملأ ابن آدم وعاء شرا من بطنه،
The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: A human fills no container worse than his stomach.
بَطْنِهِ — his stomach. This is 'his stomach', the noun after 'than', in the genitive because of it, with the attached 'his' pointing back to the human. It is the vessel being judged the worst to fill.
