prone as a verb
"Liberal feminists prone feminism with Islam as Islam is part and parcel of Moroccan culture and is, thus, embodied in the feminists’ secular orientation."
I thought that 'prone' is always used as an adjective, but in the above quote it is a verb.
Could you please clarify such usage?
Thank you

The same author also "prone" as a verb again in another place in the book:
Likewise, the paradigms of Moroccan liberal feminist research prone a reconciliation between particularism and universalism.
Unless it's a meaning I don't know, it could be a personal foible.
