Arabic vocabulary
شَقْوَتُهُمْ is how you say “their misery” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَهَؤُلاءِ هُمْ الَّذِينَ غَلَبَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ شَقْوَتُهُمْ
And these are the people whose misery overcame them.
شَقْوَتُهُمْ — their misery. A feminine noun with -hum ('their') fused to its end, standing as the delayed subject of the verb earlier; the feminine verb agrees with it. The attached pronoun makes it 'their misery', so the thing that overcame them is named only now, after the verb.
