Verse (48:10), Word 13 - Quranic Grammar

__

The thirteenth word of verse (48:10) is divided into 3 morphological segments. A resumption particle, accusative particle and preventive particle. The connective particle fa is usually translated as "then" or "so" and is used to indicate a sequence of events. The accusative particle belongs to a special group of words known as inna and her sisters (ان واخواتها). The preventive particle stops inna from taking its normal role in the sentence. Together the segments are known as kāfa wa makfūfa (كافة ومكفوفة).

Verse (48:10)

The analysis above refers to the tenth verse of chapter 48 (sūrat l-fatḥ):

Sahih International: Indeed, those who pledge allegiance to you, [O Muhammad] - they are actually pledging allegiance to Allah. The hand of Allah is over their hands. So he who breaks his word only breaks it to the detriment of himself. And he who fulfills that which he has promised Allah - He will give him a great reward.
