Example sentence

وينسى أنه خلق من نطفة ثم من علقة، ثم صار مضغة، ثم صار عظامًا، ثم كسي لحما

and forgets that he was created from a drop, then a clot, then a lump of flesh, then bones, then clothed with flesh.

كُسِيَ clothed

This verb is in the passive: the bones do not clothe, they are clothed, the agent unnamed. Arabic marks this by the internal vowel pattern rather than a helper word, flipping the roles while keeping the verb close to its active form.
