Verse (63:8), Word 10 - Quranic Grammar

__

The tenth word of verse (63:8) is divided into 3 morphological segments. A resumption particle, preposition and proper noun. The connective particle wa is usually translated as "then" or "so" and is used to indicate a sequence of events. The prefixed preposition lām is usually translated as "for". The proper noun is in the genitive case (مجرور). The proper noun's triliteral root is hamza lām hā (أ ل ه). Together the segments form a preposition phrase known as jār wa majrūr (جار ومجرور).

Verse (63:8)

The analysis above refers to the eighth verse of chapter 63 (sūrat l-munāfiqūn):

Sahih International: They say, "If we return to al-Madinah, the more honored [for power] will surely expel therefrom the more humble." And to Allah belongs [all] honor, and to His Messenger, and to the believers, but the hypocrites do not know.
