意味
To act in a way that others should imitate.
文化的背景
The concept of 'Al-Qudwa' (the role model) is a pillar of social education. Publicly praising someone for 'striking an example' is a common way to reinforce social values. The Quran uses the verb 'ḍaraba' to introduce parables that explain complex moral truths. This gives the idiom a sense of wisdom and authority. In Arab corporate environments, 'yaḍribu mithālan' is used in formal evaluations and LinkedIn endorsements to signify leadership potential. Arabic sports commentators use this phrase constantly to describe players who show grit or fair play, especially in high-stakes matches like the World Cup.
The 'fī' Rule
Always remember to use the preposition 'fī' (in) after the phrase to specify the quality you are praising.
Not for Math
If you are giving an example in a math problem, use 'mathalan' or 'a'ti mithalan' instead of 'yaḍribu mithālan'.

Use with Superlatives
To sound like a native, use 'yaḍribu arwa'a al-amthila' (sets the most wonderful examples) for extra emphasis.
