Grammar Rules

Indefinite noun
لِيَوْمٍ (For a Day) has no ال and takes tanwīn (the "n" sound at the end), so it means "a" or "some" — not a specific one.
We translate it as "a/an" or leave it general.
Preposition لِ (for/to)
لِيَوْمٍ (For a Day) starts with لِ, a small preposition meaning "for" or "to".
We add "for" or "to" before the word.
