The twelfth word of verse (10:15) is divided into 2 morphological segments. A preposition and proper noun. The prefixed preposition bi is usually translated as "with" or "by". The indefinite proper noun is masculine and is in the genitive case (مجرور). The proper noun's triliteral root is qāf rā hamza (ق ر أ). Together the segments form a preposition phrase known as jār wa majrūr (جار ومجرور).

Verse (10:15)

The analysis above refers to the fifteenth verse of chapter 10 (sūrat yūnus):

Sahih International: And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Bring us a Qur'an other than this or change it." Say, [O Muhammad], "It is not for me to change it on my own accord. I only follow what is revealed to me. Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."
