Fi can situate an action within a period of time. The textbook illustrates this with a historical divorce formula, to analyze the temporal function of the particle.
«أنت طالق في غد»
You are divorced within tomorrow.
Here fi can signify occurrence during the coming day rather than merely naming the next day. The book reports a Hanafi difference over this wording; this is a doctrinal example, not a universally shared ruling or an individual legal determination.
