Example sentences

وَيَغْضَبُونَ لِمَحَارِمِي إِذَا اِسْتُحِلَّتْ كَمًّا يَغْضَبُ النَّمِرُ إِذَا حُرِبَ
And they become angry for my forbidden things when they are treated as permissible, just as the tiger becomes angry when it is attacked.
حَرِبَ — was attacked. This verb is read in its passive shape, so the tiger is the one acted upon, being attacked rather than attacking. The passive is signalled by the inner vowels, not a separate helper, and the singular subject is understood from the surrounding clause. It supplies the trigger that the tiger reacts to.
