الإباحة:
[في الانكليزية] Declaration ،licence
[ في الفرنسية] Declaration ،licence
في اللغة الإظهار والإعلان من قولهم باح بالسّرّ وأباحه، وباحة الدار ساحتها لظهورها.
وقد يرد بمعنى الإذن والإطلاق. يقال أبحته كذا أي أطلقته. وفي الشرع حكم لا يكون طلبا ويكون تخييرا بين الفعل وتركــه. والفعل الذي هو غير مطلوب وخيّر بين إتيانه وتركــه يسمّى مباحا وجائزا أيضا. فالقيد الأول احتراز عن الواجب مخيّرا كان أو معيّنا موسّعا كان أو مضيّقا عينا كان أو كفاية. وعن الحرام والكراهة والمندوب لكونها أفعالا مطلوبة من الحكم.
والقيد الأخير احتراز عن الحكم الوضعي.
والحلال أعمّ من المباح على ما في جامع الرموز في كتاب الكراهية حيث قال: كل مباح حلال بلا عكس كالبيع عند النّداء فإنه حلال غير مباح لأنه مكروه، انتهى. وقيل المباح ما خيّر بين فعله وتركــه شرعا ونقض بالواجب المخيّر والأداء في أول الوقت مع العزم في الواجب، مع أنّ الفعل في كل منهما واجب.
وقيل ما استوى جانباه في عدم الثواب والعقاب ونقض بأفعال الله تعالى، فإنها لا توصف بالإباحة مع صدق الحدّ عليه، ونقض أيضا بفعل غير المكلّف كالصّبي والمجنون لصدق الحدّ عليه مع عدم وضعه بالإباحة. وقيل: ولو قيل ما استوى جانباه من أفعال المكلّفين لاندفع النقصان. لكن يرد المباح المنوي لقصد التوسّل إلى العبادة فإنه يثاب على فعله بالنيّة ويعاقب عليه عند قصد المعصية. ويندفع هذا بزيادة قولنا لذاته. قيل والأقرب أن يقال ما دلّ الدليل السمعي على خطاب الشارع فيه بالتخيير بين الفعل والــترك من غير بدل. والأول فصل من فعل الله. والثاني أي قولنا من غير بدل فصل عن الواجب الموسّع والمخيّر فإنّ تركــهما وإن كان جائزا لكن مع بدل. وفيه أنه صادق على ترك الواجب الموسّع في أول الوقت على المختار فإنه لا بدل له وهو العزم، وكذا المخيّر كلّ منهما واجب أصالة لأنّ أحدهما بدل عن الآخر على المختار.
واعلم أنّ المباح عند المعتزلة فيما يدرك جهة حسنه أو قبحه بالعقل وهو ما لم يشتمل شيء من طرفيه على مفسدة ولا مصلحة وسيجيء في لفظ الحسن.

فائدة: اتّفق الجمهور على أنّ الإباحة حكم شرعيّ. وبعض المعتزلة قالوا لا معنى لها إلّا نفي الحرج عن الفعل والــترك، وهو ثابت قبل الشرع وبعده فليس حكما شرعيا. قلنا انتفاء الحرج ليس بإباحة شرعية، بل الإباحة الشرعية خطاب الشارع بالتخيير، وهو ليس ثابتا قبل الشرع، فالنزاع بالحقيقة لفظي لأنه إن فسّرت الإباحة بانتفاء الحرج عن الفعل والــترك فليست شرعية، وإن فسّرت بخطاب الشارع بانتفاء الحرج عنهما فهي من الأحكام الشرعية.

فائدة: الجمهور على أنّ المباح ليس جنسا للواجب لأنّ المباح ما خيّر بين الفعل والــترك وهو مباين للواجب. وقيل جنس له لأنّ المباح ما لا حرج في فعله وهو متحقّق في الواجب، وما زاد به الواجب وهو كونه يذمّ على تركــه فصل، والنزاع لفظي أيضا. فإن اريد بالمباح ما اذن في فعله مطلقا من غير تعرّض لطرف الــترك بالإذن فيه فجنس للواجب والمندوب والمباح بالمعنى الأخص، وهو ما خيّر بين فعله وتركــه. وإن اريد به ما اذن فيه ولم يذمّ على تركــه فليس بجنس.

فائدة: المباح ليس بمأمور به عند الجمهور خلافا للكعبي قال: لا مباح في الشرع، بل ما يفرض مباحا فهو واجب مأمور به لهم أنّ الأمر طلب وأقلّه ترجيح الفعل والمباح لا ترجيح فيه، هكذا يستفاد من العضدي وغيره.

1 قَنَطَ, aor. ـِ and قَنَطَ, aor. ـُ and قَنِطَ, aor. ـَ (S, Msb, K;) and قَنُطَ, aor. ـُ (K;) and قَنَطَ, aor. ـَ and قَنِطَ, aor. ـِ each of the last two being a mixture of two dialects; (Akh, S, K;) inf. n. قُنُوطٌ, (S, Msb, K,) which is of the first and second, (S, K, TA,) and of the fourth and sixth also; (K; [but this is doubtful;]) and قَنَطٌ, which is of the third; (S, K;) and قَنَاطَةٌ, which is also of the third, (S, K,) or [more probably, agreeably with analogy,] of the fourth; (TK;) He despaired (S, Msb, K) of (مِنْ) the mercy of God, (Msb,) or, as in the T, of good: or, as some say, he despaired most vehemently of a thing. (TA.) It is said in the Kur, [xv. 56,] accord. to different readings, وَمَنْ يَقْنِطُ مِنْ رَحْمَةِ رَبِّهِ إِلَّا الضَّالُّونَ and يَقْنُطُ (Bd, TA) and يَقْنَطُ (Bd) [And who despaireth of the mercy of his Lord except those who are in error?]

A2: قَنْطٌ is also syn. with مَنْعٌ. (K.) You say, قَنَطَ مَآءَهُ عَنَّا He withheld, kept, or debarred, his water from us. (Sgh on the authority of Ibn-'Abbád.) 2 قنّطهُ, (Msb, K,) inf. n. تَقْنِيطٌ, (K,) He made him to despair; (Msb, K;) as also ↓ اقنطهُ. (Msb.) You say, شَرُّ النَّاسِ الَّذِينَ يُقَنِّطُونَ النَّاسَ مِنْ رَحْمَةِ اللّٰهِ The worst of men are those who make men to despair of the mercy of God. (TA.) 4 أَقْنَطَ see 2.

رجع: حين يعود المؤلف إلى الموضوع بعد أن استطرد في كلام خرج به عن الموضوع فإنه يكتب: رجع الحديث، رجع الخبر إلى غير ذلك. وقد كتب كوسكارتن في طبعته لكتاب الأغاني (ص22): رَجَعَ الخَبَرُ. غير أن الشيخ الطنطاوي في تعليقه على هذه العبارة (أنظر ص261 من التعليقات) يرى أن يكتب: رَجْعُ الخَبَرِ. وهذا في الحقيقة صواب، ومع ذلك فإني أجرأ على التأكيد أن الأول صواب أيضاً. ومما يؤيد هذا أننا نجد في المخطوطة النفيسة لابن عبد الملك (ص2 ق) بعد استطراد: رَجَع مضبوطة بهذا الشكل ومعها صح.
ونجد عند ابن الخطيب (ص69 ق) بعد استطراد: عادَ الحديثُ. وهذا يجعل استعمال الفعل الماضي أمراً لاشك فيه. وقارن هذا بما جاء في أخبار (ص67): ورَجَع هاهُنا شيءٌ من حديث عبد الرحمن بن معاوية. وفيه: ثُمَّ رَجَعَ الحديثُ إلى خروجهم (وحذف من كلمة الحديث. وهي موجودة في المخطوطة، خطأ من الناشر).
ويستعملون اليوم الفعل المضارع فيقولون: يرجع الكلام إلى القاضي، وفي بسام (ص66): يرجع مرجوعنا إلى (زيشر 22: 81).

1 رَجَعَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. رُجُوعٌ (S, Msb, K, &c.) and رَجْعٌ, (M, Msb,) but the former is that which commonly obtains and is agreeable with analogy as inf. n. of the intrans. v., and the latter as inf. n. of the trans. v., (MF, TA,) and مَرْجَعٌ, (S, Msb, K, &c.,) which is anomalous, because inf. ns.

(Er-Rághib.) Hence the saying in the Kur [lxiii. 8], لَئِنْ رَجَعْنَا إِلَى المَدِينَةِ [Verily if we return to the city]. (Er-Rághib.)

(IAth, TA in art. خلط.) And [in like manner you say,] عَلَى الغَرِيمِ ↓ اِرْتَجَعَ, and المُتَّهَمِ, (assumed tropical:) He sued, prosecuted, or made a demand upon, the debtor, and the suspected, for his right, or due. (TA: [in which it is said, immediately before this, that ارتجع is like رَجَعَ.]) b14: رَجَعَ الكَلْبُ فِى قَيْئِهِ The dog returned to his vomit, (Msb, TA,) and ate it. (Msb.) b15: Hence, رَجَعَ فِى هِبَتِهِ (tropical:) He took back his gift; repossessed himself of it; restored it to his possession; (Msb;) as also ↓ ارتجعها, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) and ↓ استرجعها.

And يُرْجِعُ إِلَى كَذَا, said of a word, also means (assumed tropical:) It relates to such a thing; i. e., to such another word, in grammatical construction.] b19: رَجَعَ إِلَى قَدْرِ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) It (wine when cooked) became reduced to such a quantity; syn. آلَ. (S in art. اول.) b20: رَجَعَ الحَوْضُ إِلَى إِزَائِهِ The water of the trough, or tank, became much in quantity [so that it returned to the height of the place whence it poured in]. (TA.) b21: ↓ رِجَاعٌ, also, is an inf. n. of this verb, (L,) and is used as signifying The returning of birds after their migrating to a hot country. (S, L, K.) You say, رَجَعَتِ الطَّيْرُ القَوَاطِعُ, inf. n. رِجَاعٌ and رَجْعٌ, The migratory birds returned.

(Mgh.) [All these significations are well known, as pertaining to the two verbs here mentioned, and of frequent occurrence in classical and postclassical writings: and hence several phrases here following.] b2: See 1, last quarter of the paragraph, in five places. b3: Hence, (Mgh,) التَّرْجِيعُ فِى الأَذَانِ, (S, Mgh, K,) because the two professions of the faith [for which see the word أَذَانٌ] are uttered in the اذان [or call to prayer] in a low voice [and then repeated in a high voice]; (Mgh;) [for] this phrase means (tropical:) The repeating the two professions of the faith in a raised, or loud, voice, after uttering them in a low, or faint, voice; (Sgh, K, TA;) or the lowering of the voice in the اذان in uttering the two professions of the faith, and then raising it in uttering them: (KT:) or رجّع فِى أَذَانِهِ signifies he uttered the two professions of the faith in his اذان once to repeat them.

(TA.) You say also, رجّع الحَمَامُ فِى
