quran:75:34 –

Woe to you, and woe!

˹Woe be˺ nearer to you (there is a shift from the third ˹to the second˺ person address here; the term ˹awlā˺ is a noun of action, with the ˹following˺ lām being explicative, in other words, ‘what you are averse to is ˹now˺ near to you’) and nearer, that is because you are more deserving of it ˹woe˺ than anyone else,

القرآن:٧٥:٣٤ –

أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ

{أوْلى لك} فيه التفات عن الغيبة والكلمة اسم فعل واللام للتبيين، أي وليك ما تكره {فأوْلى} أي فهو أولى بك من غيرك.
