Example sentences
وَالْعَاقِلُ يَعْرِفُ حَقَّ الْمُحْسِنِ،
And the wise person recognizes what is owed to the benefactor.
حَقَّ — what is owed. This noun, 'right / due', is the object of 'recognizes', marked by the object-style -a ending, and it opens an owner-and-owned pairing with the benefactor-word after it. As the first half it stays bare and takes its definiteness from the owner ahead. So it means 'recognizes the benefactor's due'.
