How to say “your captive” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، مَا فَعَلَ أَسِيرُكَ
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said to me, O Abu Huraira, what has your captive done?
أَسِيرُكَ — your captive. A noun with an attached 'your' pronoun and no separate 'the', the possessor making it definite, and a nominative ending marking it the subject of 'did'. The 'your' ties the captive to Abu Hurayra, the one questioned.
