Arabic vocabulary
الْعَوَالِمِ is how you say “the worlds” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
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.
العالمين — the worlds. This is the owner-noun closing the 'Lord of the worlds' pairing, so it takes the 'of' (genitive) ending. It is a plural, and being the second noun in the chain it supplies the definiteness for 'Lord' before it; Arabic joins the two directly with no linking word.
