الْعَبْدَthe servant

Example sentences

• وَقَوْلٌ آخَرٌ إِنْ كَانَ لِلشَّيْطَانِ سُلْطَانٌ فِي إِلْقَاءِ العَبْدَ فِي المَعْصِيَةِ

  And another view says that if the devil has power to cast the servant into sin.

  العَبْد — the servant. Definite by 'al-' and serving as the OBJECT of the action-noun 'casting' (the one cast). The verbal noun governs it the way a verb would govern an object, so it sits in the object ending despite there being no finite verb.
