How to say “the praise” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
Example sentences
جمعة الدفتان من أول الحمد لله رب العالمين إلى آخر قل أعوذ برب الناس كلام الله
Friday of the Two Booklets: from the beginning, "Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds," to the end, "Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind." The Word of God.
الْحَمْدِ — the praise. This noun completes the possessive pairing opened by 'beginning', so the two read as 'the beginning of the praise'. As the owner-noun in that chain it keeps its own 'the', and Arabic sets the two nouns side by side with no separate word for 'of' linking them.
