Example sentences

فَأَضَافَ الصِّرَاطَ إِلَى الرَّفِيقِ الْسَالِكِينَ لَهُ،
He then added the path to the companion who traverses it,
الصِّرَاطَ — the path. This is the thing acted upon by the verb 'added', sitting in the object slot with the object (accusative) ending. It keeps its definite al-, so the path being added is a specific, already-known path. Reading the ending tells you it is what gets added, not what does the adding.

اهْدِنَا الصِرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
Guide us to the straight path.
الصِّرَاط — the straight path. Definite by 'al-' and in the object ending as the second thing this verb takes ('guide US to THE PATH'). The verb of guiding reaches its goal directly here without a preposition, so the path stands as a plain object.
