بِمَطَرٍwith rain in Arabic

Example sentences

• الحمد لله الذي أرسل السحائب بالمطر،

  Praise be to Allah who sent the clouds with rain,

  بِالْمَطَرِ — with the rain. The 'with' prefix is a preposition forcing the genitive and marking what the clouds were sent carrying, their accompanying load. The 'the' makes the noun the specific rain, so the phrase means the clouds came bearing the rain.
