Arabic vocabulary
أَيْقَنَ is how you say “was certain” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَمَنْ أَيْقَنَ بِطُوْلِ الطَّرِيقِ،
And whoever was certain that the road was long,
أَيْقَنَ — was certain. A past-tense verb carrying its own 'he' subject inside it, so no separate pronoun is needed. Although the form is past, after the conditional 'whoever' it reads as a timeless 'whoever becomes certain', describing a type of person rather than one finished event.
