Arabic vocabulary
How to say “the indulgent” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَلَا تَمُدَّا إِلَى ذَلِكَ أَعْيُنُكُمَا فَإِنَّهَا زَهْرَةُ الحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَةُ الْمُتَرَفِّينَ،
Do not turn your gaze toward that, for it is the fleeting flower of this worldly life and the ornament of the indulgent,
الْمُتَرَفِّينَ — the indulgent. This is a participle turned plural noun, naming a class of people, those given to luxury, and it carries 'the'. It is the owning half of the 'ornament of' pairing before it, so it sits in the governed form. Built from an active participle, it names people by the trait they habitually show.
