وَأُحْرِقَتْ كُتُبُهُ،
And his books were burned,
وَأُحْرِقَتْ and were burned
This joins a linking 'and' to a passive past verb 'were burned' — the books receive the burning; an unnamed agent does it. Arabic marks the passive by reshaping the verb's internal vowels rather than adding 'were', and the verb takes a feminine ending agreeing with its non-human plural subject.
