Particle

 * 1) particle attached to oblique pronoun forms when they are not attached to the verb or preposition governing them

Usage notes
Arabic personal pronouns are suffixes, not complete words in their own right, except in the subject form. Because of this, Arabic grammar does not allow them to stand independently in a sentence; they must be attached to a "carrier" word. Normally, object pronouns immediately follow the verb, preposition, or particle governing them, and thus in the overwhelming majority of the time, this governing verb, preposition, or particle is also the "carrier" of the pronoun suffix. However, these object pronouns may be separated from the governing word for any of a number of reasons, in which case must be employed as a generic "carrier" word: Since may not be used in the genitive, Arabic grammarians have traditionally thought of the inflections of  as  accusative pronouns, which, unlike their suffixal counterparts, may be moved around and may be placed before or after the verb.
 * 1) to delay the verb until after the object pronoun is introduced, usually to emphasize the pronoun (similarly to 🇨🇬)
 * Without, the pronouns would have to follow the verbs, and it would simply say.
 * 1) to introduce a second object pronoun, when the other object pronoun is already attached to the verb, preposition, or particle
 * Arabic grammar requires that the object of a relative clause be restated with a redundant pronoun, so the sentence literally reads "about a promise he made it (to) him"; the indirect object ("him", i.e. Abraham's father) therefore requires to carry it, as  is already carrying the relative pronoun referring back to the promise.
 * 1) to state the object of a verb, preposition, or particle that is elided or understood from context
 * functions as a conjunction, not a preposition; the implied sentence is, but the repeated verb is elided the second time. The remaining pronoun requires  since the verb to which it would have been attached is gone.
 * Because is a conjunction, it cannot carry an object pronoun.  provides a carrier for the second pronoun, as an alternative to repeating.
