More example sentences

فقضى لهم حياة وقضى عليهم مماتا،

So He decreed life for them and decreed death for them,

لَهُمْ for them

The 'for' prefix is a preposition forcing the genitive on its attached 'them', so it means 'for them' and marks the beneficiaries of the decree. Arabic fuses the preposition with its object into one word, and the suffix points back to the earth's dwellers.

From Death and Decree

علم الحديث والمحدثون فغالبهم لا يفقهون ولا همة لهم في معرفة الحديث ولا في التدين به، بل الصحيح والموضوع عندهم بنسبة

The science of Hadith and its scholars: most of them do not understand, nor do they care about knowing the Hadith or practicing it; rather, the authentic and the fabricated are the same to them.

لَهُمْ for them

The preposition li- 'for/to' with 'them' attached, marking the possessors in the 'there is no zeal for them' frame - i.e. 'they have no zeal'. Arabic expresses 'have' through this 'for/to' preposition rather than a verb 'to have'. The suffix points back to the scholars, naming whose missing drive is asserted.
