How to say “will you not” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
قُلْتُ فَإِنْ كُفِيتَ ذَلِكَ وَدُعِيتَ إِلَى الْجَمَالِ وَالْمَالِ وَالشَرَفِ وَالْكَفَاءَةِ أَلا تُجِيبُ؟
I said: If that would be enough, and you were asked for beauty, wealth, honor, and suitability, would you not answer?
أَلا — will you not. A negative-question particle ('would you not...?') that combines a negation with a question to invite agreement, expecting a 'yes'. It opens the answer-clause of the condition, prodding him toward consent.
From: The Prophet's Marriage to Khadijah →OpenArabic teaches words like أَلا through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
