Quote:Thats a hard one. IS the answer سمع - To hear/listen? I think im wrong.

Can I just ask what exacctly is the difference between استمع and سمع? Verbs are not my strength as you can see.


Heres my challenge:


عقيدة


Its a deep one I believe.

Well, some of the native speakers could correct me here but:


<b>سمع</b>


It means to hear


استمع


Means to Listen...


Not sure how to differentiate it more... but can someone who speaks arabic natively step in here

Bismillah


Can I participate????


Alright, karbala's one is really deep and difficult.


عقيدة


من عقد


to tie a knot, that is why the word Aqeedah is derived from this verb. For us, belief should be like tying a strong knot.


Well, it is too late for me to think of something now it is almost 2 am.
