يَظُنُّونَthey suppose

Example sentences

• فَيَظُنُّونَ أَنَّ مَعْصِيَتَهُ هِيَ مَرْضَاتُهُ

  So they suppose that his disobedience is His pleasure.

  فَيَظُنُّونَ — so they think. This token fronts a 'so/then' result-connector on a present-tense verb shaped for 'they', meaning 'so they suppose'. The 'so' marks this as a consequence of what was just said; the plural 'they' lives in the verb's ending. The doubled inner consonant is part of this verb's pattern, not extra grammar.

• فَيَظُنُّونَ الاِسْتِسْلامَ لِذَلِكَ وَمُوَافَقَتَهُ وَالرِّضَا بِهِ

  So they suppose submission to that, and agreement with it, and satisfaction with it.

  فَيَظُنُّونَ — so they suppose. This fuses the resumptive fa-, 'so', with a present-tense verb carrying a built-in 'they' subject, 'suppose, imagine'. The fa- draws the consequence from the prior reasoning, while the plural ending names the actors, leading into the mistaken belief they hold.
