Example sentence

أي تختبر وقال مقاتل تظهر وتبدو وبلوت الشيء إذا اختبرته ليظهر لك باطنه وما خفى منه

Meaning, they will be tested, and Muqatil said: they will appear and be revealed. You say you have tested something to uncover its hidden parts and what was concealed.

تُخْتَبَرُ they will be tested

This is a present-tense verb built in the passive: the subject does not test, it gets tested by an outside party left unnamed. Arabic does not add a helper like English 'are being'; it marks the passive by reshaping the vowels inside the verb itself, so the form sits close to its active twin while flipping who acts on whom. The plain present also carries a future sense here.

اخْتَبَرْتَهُ you have tested it

Here one Arabic word packs three pieces: a past-tense verb 'tested', a fused 'you' as the doer, and an attached '-it' object pointing back to the thing examined. Arabic routinely stacks subject and object pronouns straight onto the verb, so reading it means peeling those endings apart to see who did what to what.
