Example sentence
وَقَدْ خُطِبَتْ خَدِيجَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدٍ وَبُذِلَ لَهَا الصَّدَاقُ مَا آجِلَهُ وَعَاجِلُهُ مِنْ مَالِي،
And Khadijah bint Khuwaylid was betrothed, and her dowry, both its deferred and its immediate parts, was paid from my wealth,
خُطِبَ was betrothed
This verb is in the passive: Khadijah is the one engaged to, not the one doing the engaging, and no agent is named. Arabic marks the passive by reshaping the vowels inside the verb rather than adding a helper word, so the form sits close to its active twin but reverses who acts.
