LessonsPoverty, Responsible Speech, People's Rights, and Self-Discipline (Hadith 115–120)Quiz

Several key expressions begin with verbs. Understanding the verb opens the meaning of the whole clause:
كَادَ — nearly became.
يُبْعَثُ — will be raised.
كَفَى — was sufficient.
يُغْفَرُ — is forgiven.
لُعِنَ — was cursed.
حُجِبَتْ — was veiled.

Some are active and others passive. A passive verb foregrounds what happens rather than naming who performs the action. After identifying the verb, find the person or thing it refers to.
