صَّدِيقَيْنِtwo truthful ones

Example sentences

• قَالَ فَالْكَرَمُ مِنْ أَخْلاَقِ النَّبِيِّينَ وَالصَّدِيقَيْنِ

  He said, Generosity is among the noble qualities of the prophets and the truthful ones.

  وَالصَّدِيقَيْنِ — and the two truthful ones. This joins the linking 'and' to a definite noun in a special 'exactly two' (dual) shape, coupling a second group to the prophets. The dual ending packs 'the two truthful ones' into the word itself, with no separate word for 'two'.
