Command verb

وَأَقِيمُوا۟ (And establish) is a command — it's telling someone to do something.

We translate it as a direct command — "[Do this]!"

Verb form IV — causative

وَأَقِيمُوا۟ (And establish) uses form IV (أَفْعَلَ) — the أ at the start makes it causative ("to make someone do something").

We translate it as "to make [someone] do" or "to cause [action]".

Conjunction وَ (and)

وَأَقِيمُوا۟ (And establish) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".

We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
