Example sentences
مِنْ تَفَكُّرٍ فِي عَواقِبِ الْدُّنْيَا،
Whoever reflects on the consequences of this world,
الْدُّنْيَا — this world. The al- makes this definite, 'the' world, the known lower life, and it closes the 'consequences of...' pairing as its owner. Sitting in the owned-by slot, it carries the genitive 'of' ending, locking the two words into 'the consequences of this world'.
