آتَىto give

Example sentences

• لا ينقصه من ملكه ما وهب وآتى،

  His kingdom is not diminished by what He grants and gives,

  وَآتَى — and gives. The 'and' joins a second verb under the same 'what', so it shares that relative subject. The past-tense verb means 'gave', pairing with the previous verb to cover all that God grants and gives, none of which diminishes His kingdom.

• وَقَوله الْحَدِيد لكيلا تأسوا على مَا فاتكم وَلَا تفرحوا بِمَا آتَاكُم

  And His saying in Al-Hadid: 'So that you do not despair over what has passed you by, nor rejoice over what He has given you.'

  آتَاكُمْ — He has given you. Past-tense verb, 'He gave', with 'you-all' attached as object, 'gave you'. The unstated 'He' subject is God; the attached 'you' is the recipient, completing 'what He gave you'.
