How to say “they heard it” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
Example sentences
فَقَامُوا يَنْقُلُونَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَا سَمِعُوهُ وَوَعَوُوهُ،
They then began transmitting from the Messenger of God what they had heard and understood.
سَمِعُوهُ — they heard it. A past verb with a plural 'they' subject plus an attached object '-hu' = 'it', pointing back to the 'what' just introduced. So one Arabic word carries subject, verb and object together: 'they heard it', completing the relative clause.
