Contexto cultural

This expression is deeply rooted in 'Fusha' (Modern Standard Arabic). It reflects the Arabic rhetorical value of 'Bayan,' which emphasizes that truth should be expressed with absolute clarity. While it originated in classical texts, it remains a staple of modern intellectual discourse across the Arab world.

💡

The 'Anna' Rule

Always remember that `أن` (anna) changes the case of the noun that follows it to the accusative (Mansoub). If you use a name like `زيد`, it becomes `زيداً`.

  • A sophisticated way to say 'it is clear that'.
  • Used primarily in formal writing, news, and academic contexts.
  • Followed by a noun or pronoun because of the word 'anna'.

What It Means

من البين أن is a high-level way to point out the obvious. It suggests that whatever follows is so clear that no one could possibly disagree. Think of it as the linguistic equivalent of pointing at a bright blue sky and saying, 'Well, clearly, it is daytime.' It is sophisticated, logical, and very firm.

How To Use It

You use this phrase to start a sentence. It is almost always followed by a noun or a pronoun because of the word أن (anna). For example, you would say من البين أن الخطة نجحت (It is clear that the plan succeeded). It sets a tone of authority. You are not just sharing an opinion; you are stating a visible truth.

When To Use It

This is your go-to for academic essays, formal presentations, or serious debates. If you are writing a news article or a legal brief, this phrase fits perfectly. You can also use it when you want to sound very persuasive in a discussion. It makes your argument feel like it is backed by undeniable evidence.

When NOT To Use It

Do not use this while buying groceries or chatting with your cousins at a BBQ. If you say من البين أنني جائع (It is clear that I am hungry) to a friend, they might think you have been reading too many philosophy books. It is far too stiff for casual hangouts. Avoid it in text messages unless you are being intentionally dramatic or sarcastic.

Cultural Background

The word البين (al-bayyin) comes from the root b-y-n, which is all about separation and clarity. In Arabic culture, especially in classical literature and Islamic jurisprudence, 'Bayan' refers to the art of eloquence and making things plain. When you use this phrase, you are tapping into a long tradition of logical reasoning and rhetorical excellence. It is the language of scholars and thinkers.

Common Variations

You might also hear من الواضح أن (min al-wadhih anna), which is the most common 'neutral' version. If you want to be even more poetic, you could use من الجلي أن (min al-jali anna). If you want to sound like a detective, you might use يتضح أن (yattadihu anna). Each one shifts the flavor slightly, but من البين أن remains the most 'classic' and formal of the bunch.

Notas de uso

This is a C2-level expression. It is highly formal and best suited for written work, speeches, or high-level intellectual discussions. Avoid using it in casual spoken dialects.

💡

The 'Anna' Rule

Always remember that `أن` (anna) changes the case of the noun that follows it to the accusative (Mansoub). If you use a name like `زيد`, it becomes `زيداً`.

💬

The Root of Clarity

The word `البين` is related to `بيان` (Bayan), which is one of the names for the Quran, emphasizing its role in making the truth clear.
