بِأَنْwith

Example sentences

• فالمؤمن مكلف بأن يقوم بحق الله، وحق نفسه، وحق الخلق

  So, the believer is tasked with fulfilling the rights of Allah, his self, and the creation.

  بِأَنْ — with. A fused word joining the 'with' prefix to the aim-particle 'that', setting up 'with [the task] that he do...'. The prefix governs the structure into the genitive, and the embedded particle pushes the following verb into its aim-shape.

  So the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, sent to Abu Bakr asking him to lead the people in prayer.

  بِأَنْ — asking that. This fuses a 'with/that' preposition onto a subordinating particle, introducing the content of the request and pushing its verb into the subjunctive. It is the hinge linking 'sent' to what he was asked to do.
