اكل

1 أَكَلَهُ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. أَكْلٌ and مَأْكَلٌ, [He ate it,] (S, K,) namely, food. (S.) Er-Rummánee says that أَكْلٌ properly signifies The swallowing food after chewing it; so that the swallowing of pebbles is not properly thus termed: (Msb:) or, accord. to Ibn-El-Kemál, the conveying, or transmitting, to the belly what may be chewed, whether [the thing be] chewed or not; so that it does not apply to milk, nor to سَوِيق: and as to the saying of the poet, مِنَ الآكِلِينَ المَآءَ ظُلْمًا فَمَا أَرَى

يَنَالُونَ خَيْرًا بَعْدَ أَكْلِهِمُ المَآءَ (assumed tropical:) [Of the eaters of what they purchase with the price of water, wrongfully, I do not see any attain good after their eating of what they have purchased with the price of the water,] he means a people who used to sell water and purchase with the price thereof what they would eat: (TA:) [for you say, أَكَلَ كَذَا as meaning (assumed tropical:) He ate the price of such a thing: see another ex. voce إِكَافٌ; and another voce ثَدْىٌ.] b2: The saying, in the Kur [v. 70], لَأَكَلُوا مِنْ فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِنْ تَحْتِ

أَرْجُلِهِمْ [They should eat things above them and things beneath their feet] means, their means of subsistence should be made ample; (Bd, TA;) by the pouring of the blessings of the heaven and the earth upon them; or by the abundance of the fruit of the trees, and the produce of the grains sown; or by their being blessed with gardens of ripe fruits, so that they should gather them from the upper part of each tree, and pick up what should have fallen upon the ground. (Bd.) b3: اِنْقَطَعَ أَكْلُهُ [lit. His eating became cut off, or stopped,] means (tropical:) he died; [see also أُكُلٌ;] and so اِسْتَوْفَى أَكْلَهُ [lit. he completed his eating]. (TA.) b4: أَكَلَ رَؤْقَهُ [lit. He ate his life,] means (tropical:) he became extremely aged, and his teeth fell out, one after another. (TA.) b5: هُوَ يَأْكُلُ النَّاسَ, and يَأْكُلُ لُحُومَ النَّاسِ [He eats men, and eats the flesh of men,] means (tropical:) he defames men; or does so in their absence: (TA:) and the action thus signified may be [with words, or by making signs] with the side of the mouth, and with the eye, and with the head. (TA in art. همز.) It is said in the Kur [xlix. 12], أَيُحِبُّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَأْكلَ لَحْمَ أَخِيهِ مَيْتًا [lit. Would any one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead?]; defamation, or defamation of the absent, being meant thereby. (S, * Ibn-' Arafeh, Bd, Jel.) b6: أَكَلَ غَنَمِى وَ شَرِبَهَا (tropical:) [He ate the flesh of my sheep, and drank the milk of them, means, like أَكَلَ مَالِى, he ate, fed upon, devoured, or consumed, my wealth, or property: see 2]. (TA.) b7: أَكَلَتِ النَّارُ الحَطَبَ (tropical:) The fire devoured, or consumed, the firewood. (S, Mgh.) b8: أَكَلَتْ أَظْفَارَهُ الحِجَارَةُ (tropical:) [The stones wore away his nails].

(TA.) b10: أَكَلَ عُمُرَهُ (tropical:) He consumed his life. (Mgh.) b11: It is said in a trad., (TA,) أُمِرْتُ بِقَرْيَةٍ تَأْكُلُ القُرَى (tropical:) [I have been commanded to have given unto me a town which shall devour the other towns]; (K, TA;) said to be Yethrib [afterwards called El-Medeeneh]; (TA;) i. e., the people of which shall conquer the [other] towns and make spoil of their possessions: or it denotes the superior excellence of that town; and is like the saying, هٰذَا حَدِيثٌ يَأْكُلُ الأَحَادِيثَ [This is a tradition which does away with, or overrules, the other traditions]. (Sgh. K, TA.) b12: أَكْلُ السِّكِّينِ اللَّحْمَ means (tropical:) The knife's cutting the flesh. (TA.) b13: أَكَلَنِي رَأْسِى, inf. n. إِكْلَةٌ and أُكَالٌ and أَكَالٌ, (tropical:) My head itched.

Thou hast made me to eat what I have not eaten,] meaning (tropical:) thou hast charged against me, or accused me of doing, what I have not done; as also ↓ آكَلْتَنِى. (S, TA.) So too, أَشْرَبْتَنِى مَا لَمْ أَشْرَبٌ.

[See also أَكِلَةٌ, voce إِكْلَةٌ, where a similar meaning is assigned to the former of these two words; and the same seems to be indicated in the Msb.] b2: See also another signification voce إِكْلَةٌ. b3: بَهَا أُكَالٌ, said of a she-camel, (tropical:) She has an itching and annoyance in her belly, (S, K,) from the growth of the hair, (S,) or of the fur, (K,) of her fœtus.

أَكِيلَةٌ and ↓ أَكِيلٌ and ↓ أُكُولَةٌ, with two dammehs, (K,) so in the copies of the K, but perhaps a mistake for ↓ أُكْلَةٌ, (TA,) a word of a bad dial., (K, * TA,) and ↓ مَأْكُولٌ and ↓ مُؤَاكِلٌ, (K, TA, [in some copies of the former of which, instead of وَهِىَ قَبِيحَةٌ وَ المَأْكُولِ وَ المَؤَاكِلِ, meaning, as is said in the TA, وَهِىَ لُغَةٌ قَبِيحَةٌ &c., we find وَهِىَ قَبِيحَةٌ المَأْكُولِ وَ المَؤَاكِلِ,]) A sheep, or goat, which is set (K, TA) in the lurking-place of a hunter (TA) for the purpose of catching thereby the wolf and the like.

مُؤْكَلٌ (assumed tropical:) Fortunate; possessed of good fortune; prosperous. (Aboo-Sa'eed, K.) مُؤْكِلُ الرِّبَا (tropical:) [The giver of usury: see آكِلٌ, last sentence].

رسم القرآن لمحمد صورة محبّبة إلى النفوس، فيها لين ورقة، وفيها الخلق المثالى، والقلب الرءوف الرحيم، والنّفس الوادعة المطمئنة، نزل عليه روح من أمر الله، يهدى إلى الصراط المستقيم، ويخرج الناس من الظلمات إلى النور، يقول الله تعالى يخاطبه: ن وَالْقَلَمِ وَما يَسْطُرُونَ ما أَنْتَ بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجْنُونٍ وَإِنَّ لَكَ لَأَجْراً غَيْرَ مَمْنُونٍ وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلى خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٍ (القلم 1 - 4). ويقول: لَقَدْ جاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ ما عَنِتُّمْ حَرِيصٌ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَؤُفٌ رَحِيمٌ (التوبة 128). ويقول:
فَبِما رَحْمَةٍ مِنَ اللَّهِ لِنْتَ لَهُمْ وَلَوْ كُنْتَ فَظًّا غَلِيظَ الْقَلْبِ لَانْفَضُّوا مِنْ حَوْلِكَ
(آل عمران 159). ويقول: وَكَذلِكَ أَوْحَيْنا إِلَيْكَ رُوحاً مِنْ أَمْرِنا ما كُنْتَ تَدْرِي مَا الْكِتابُ وَلَا الْإِيمانُ وَلكِنْ جَعَلْناهُ نُوراً نَهْدِي بِهِ مَنْ نَشاءُ مِنْ عِبادِنا وَإِنَّكَ لَتَهْدِي إِلى صِراطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ صِراطِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَهُ ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَما فِي الْأَرْضِ (الشورى 52، 53). ويقول: قَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْكُمْ ذِكْراً رَسُولًا يَتْلُوا عَلَيْكُمْ آياتِ اللَّهِ مُبَيِّناتٍ لِيُخْرِجَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحاتِ مِنَ الظُّلُماتِ إِلَى النُّورِ (الطلاق 10، 11).
ويدعوه سراجا منيرا، فى قوله: يا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِنَّا أَرْسَلْناكَ شاهِداً وَمُبَشِّراً وَنَذِيراً وَداعِياً إِلَى اللَّهِ بِإِذْنِهِ وَسِراجاً مُنِيراً (الأحزاب 45، 46). ورحمة في قوله: وَما أَرْسَلْناكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِلْعالَمِينَ (الأنبياء 107). ويأمره باستشارتهم وخفض الجناح لهم إذ يقول:
فَاعْفُ عَنْهُمْ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ وَشاوِرْهُمْ فِي الْأَمْرِ (آل عمران 159). ويقول: وَاخْفِضْ جَناحَكَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَقُلْ إِنِّي أَنَا النَّذِيرُ الْمُبِينُ (الحجر 88 - 89).
ولكن هذه الصفات في سموّها المثالى لم ترفع محمدا عن البشرية، وهذه صفة من الصفات التى أكدها القرآن وأطال في الحديث عنها، فهو حينا يثبت هذه الصفة على لسانه، وحينا ينفى عن نفسه القدرة على ما لا يقدر عليه البشر، قُلْ إِنَّما أَنَا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْ يُوحى إِلَيَّ أَنَّما إِلهُكُمْ إِلهٌ واحِدٌ (الكهف 110). وهو لهذا لا يملك لنفسه أمرا، ولا يدرى من الغيب شيئا، قُلْ لا أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِي نَفْعاً وَلا ضَرًّا إِلَّا ما شاءَ اللَّهُ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ أَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ لَاسْتَكْثَرْتُ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَما مَسَّنِيَ السُّوءُ إِنْ أَنَا إِلَّا نَذِيرٌ وَبَشِيرٌ لِقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ (الأعراف 188).
ولننصت إليه يتبرأ من قدرته على فعل ما ليس في طاقته، عند ما سألوه ما ليس فى طوقه، وَقالُوا لَنْ نُؤْمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّى تَفْجُرَ لَنا مِنَ الْأَرْضِ يَنْبُوعاً أَوْ تَكُونَ لَكَ جَنَّةٌ مِنْ نَخِيلٍ وَعِنَبٍ فَتُفَجِّرَ الْأَنْهارَ خِلالَها تَفْجِيراً أَوْ تُسْقِطَ السَّماءَ كَما زَعَمْتَ عَلَيْنا كِسَفاً أَوْ تَأْتِيَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْمَلائِكَةِ قَبِيلًا أَوْ يَكُونَ لَكَ بَيْتٌ مِنْ زُخْرُفٍ أَوْ تَرْقى فِي السَّماءِ وَلَنْ نُؤْمِنَ لِرُقِيِّكَ حَتَّى تُنَزِّلَ عَلَيْنا كِتاباً نَقْرَؤُهُ قُلْ سُبْحانَ رَبِّي هَلْ كُنْتُ إِلَّا بَشَراً رَسُولًا (الإسراء 90 - 93)، ومما يلحظ أنهم طالبوه بأمور يستحيل وجودها في الصحراء، من تفجير الأرض ينابيع وأنهارا، وانظر إليه كيف يعجب من أمرهم، وكيف يقرر في صراحة أنه ليس سوى بشر رسول. ولأنه بشر، يجوز أن يموت كما يموت سائر البشر، وَما مُحَمَّدٌ إِلَّا رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ أَفَإِنْ ماتَ أَوْ قُتِلَ انْقَلَبْتُمْ عَلى أَعْقابِكُمْ وَمَنْ يَنْقَلِبْ عَلى عَقِبَيْهِ فَلَنْ يَضُرَّ اللَّهَ شَيْئاً وَسَيَجْزِي اللَّهُ الشَّاكِرِينَ (آل عمران 144). ولم يتميز محمد من البشر إلا بأنه كالرسل بشير ونذير، قُلْ ما كُنْتُ بِدْعاً مِنَ الرُّسُلِ وَما أَدْرِي ما يُفْعَلُ بِي وَلا بِكُمْ إِنْ أَتَّبِعُ إِلَّا ما يُوحى إِلَيَّ وَما أَنَا إِلَّا نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ (الأحقاف 9). إِنَّا أَرْسَلْناكَ بِالْحَقِّ بَشِيراً وَنَذِيراً وَلا تُسْئَلُ عَنْ أَصْحابِ الْجَحِيمِ (البقرة 119). وهو ليس إلا مذكّرا، لا سيطرة له على القلوب، ولا مقدرة عنده على تحويل الأفئدة، فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّما أَنْتَ مُذَكِّرٌ لَسْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِمُصَيْطِرٍ (الغاشية 21، 22).
ومما أكده القرآن من صفات محمد الأمّية، يصفه بها في قوله: قُلْ يا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكُمْ جَمِيعاً الَّذِي لَهُ مُلْكُ السَّماواتِ وَالْأَرْضِ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحيِي وَيُمِيتُ فَآمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ النَّبِيِّ الْأُمِّيِّ الَّذِي يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَكَلِماتِهِ وَاتَّبِعُوهُ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ (الأعراف 158). ويبين حكمة اختياره أميا في قوله: وَما كُنْتَ تَتْلُوا مِنْ قَبْلِهِ مِنْ كِتابٍ وَلا تَخُطُّهُ بِيَمِينِكَ إِذاً لَارْتابَ الْمُبْطِلُونَ (العنكبوت 48). وإذا كانت الأمية مما يعاب فهى المعجزة التى تحول بين رسالة النبى والشك فيها، ولو أنه كان يقرأ ويكتب، لكان للمبطلين مجال للرّيب في صدق رسالته.
والقرآن يعظم أمر الرسول، فيحدّثنا عن صلاة الله عليه والملائكة، إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيماً (الأحزاب 56). ويعظم من أمر مبايعته، حتى لكأن من يبايعه إنما يبايع الله، إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُبايِعُونَكَ إِنَّما يُبايِعُونَ اللَّهَ (الفتح 10). ويشهد له القرآن بالخلق القويم كما سبق أن نقلنا، وبأنه لا ينطق عن هوى النفس، ولا يميل إلى ضلالة ولا غواية، ويقسم على ذلك: وَالنَّجْمِ إِذا هَوى ما ضَلَّ صاحِبُكُمْ وَما غَوى وَما يَنْطِقُ عَنِ الْهَوى إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحْيٌ يُوحى (النجم 1 - 4)، كما يقسم على رسالته فيقول: وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكِيمِ إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ عَلى صِراطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ تَنْزِيلَ الْعَزِيزِ الرَّحِيمِ (يس 2 - 5). ويعدّد القرآن نعم الله عليه فيقول: أَلَمْ نَشْرَحْ لَكَ صَدْرَكَ وَوَضَعْنا عَنْكَ وِزْرَكَ الَّذِي أَنْقَضَ ظَهْرَكَ وَرَفَعْنا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ (الشرح 1 - 4). أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيماً فَآوى وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدى وَوَجَدَكَ عائِلًا فَأَغْنى (الضحى 6 - 8). ويقسم له القرآن أن الله ما تخلى عنه وما قلاه، ويؤكد أن الذين يناصبونه العداء سيكبتون ويخذلون مذلولين، إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُحَادُّونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ أُولئِكَ فِي الْأَذَلِّينَ (المجادلة 20). ويحذر المؤمنين من معصيته، يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذا تَناجَيْتُمْ فَلا تَتَناجَوْا بِالْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوانِ وَمَعْصِيَةِ الرَّسُولِ (المجادلة 9). ويأمرهم بأن يقفوا عند الحدود التى رسمها الرسول، ولا يبطلوا أعمالهم بعصيانه، يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ وَلا تُبْطِلُوا أَعْمالَكُمْ (محمد 33). وَما آتاكُمُ الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَما نَهاكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانْتَهُوا (الحشر 7). وَما كانَ لِمُؤْمِنٍ وَلا مُؤْمِنَةٍ إِذا قَضَى اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمْراً أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُمُ الْخِيَرَةُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ وَمَنْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلالًا مُبِيناً (الأحزاب 36). ويؤكد لهم أنهم لن يكونوا مؤمنين حقا حتى يجدوا العدالة المطلقة في أحكامه، ولا يجدوا فيها غضاضة ولا حرجا في نفوسهم، ويقسم على ذلك قائلا: فَلا وَرَبِّكَ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّى يُحَكِّمُوكَ فِيما شَجَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ ثُمَّ لا يَجِدُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ حَرَجاً مِمَّا قَضَيْتَ وَيُسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيماً (النساء 65). ذلك أنه لا ينطق عن الهوى، إن هو إلا وحى يوحى.
وإذا كان محمد رسولا، فله حرمته ومنزلته الاجتماعية، ومن الواجب احترامه، فلا يليق أن ينادى باسمه، كما ينادى الناس بعضهم بعضا، ولا أن ترتفع أصواتهم فوق صوته، يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا تَرْفَعُوا أَصْواتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ وَلا تَجْهَرُوا لَهُ بِالْقَوْلِ كَجَهْرِ بَعْضِكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ أَنْ تَــحْبَطَ أَعْمالُكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ لا تَشْعُرُونَ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَغُضُّونَ أَصْواتَهُمْ
عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُولئِكَ الَّذِينَ امْتَحَنَ اللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُمْ لِلتَّقْوى لَهُمْ مَغْفِرَةٌ وَأَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُنادُونَكَ مِنْ وَراءِ الْحُجُراتِ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لا يَعْقِلُونَ وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ صَبَرُوا حَتَّى تَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِمْ لَكانَ خَيْراً لَهُمْ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ
(الحجرات 2 - 5). ولا تَجْعَلُوا دُعاءَ الرَّسُولِ بَيْنَكُمْ كَدُعاءِ بَعْضِكُمْ بَعْضاً (النور 63). وفي تربية الشعب على احترام الرسول ما يدفعهم إلى طاعته، فإن الطاعة أساسها الاحترام كما وضع القرآن أساسها الثانى وهو الحب، بما وصف القرآن به محمدا من حبّ لهداية قومه، وحدب عليهم، ورحمة بهم ورأفة، وشوق ملح إلى هدايتهم، حتى صح للقرآن أن يقول: فَلَعَلَّكَ باخِعٌ نَفْسَكَ عَلى آثارِهِمْ إِنْ لَمْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِهذَا الْحَدِيثِ أَسَفاً (الكهف 6). وهكذا بنى القرآن الطاعة على أساسين من الحب والاحترام معا.
ويؤيد القرآن رسالة محمد بشهادة الله الذى لا يشهد بغير الحق، وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ إِنَّكَ لَرَسُولُهُ (المنافقون 1). وَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَسْتَ مُرْسَلًا قُلْ كَفى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيداً بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ وَمَنْ عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ الْكِتابِ (الرعد 43). لكِنِ اللَّهُ يَشْهَدُ بِما أَنْزَلَ إِلَيْكَ أَنْزَلَهُ بِعِلْمِهِ وَالْمَلائِكَةُ يَشْهَدُونَ وَكَفى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيداً (النساء 166). وبأن عيسى قد بشر به قومه، وأخبرهم برسالته، وَإِذْ قالَ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ يا بَنِي إِسْرائِيلَ إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكُمْ مُصَدِّقاً لِما بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ مِنَ التَّوْراةِ وَمُبَشِّراً بِرَسُولٍ يَأْتِي مِنْ بَعْدِي اسْمُهُ أَحْمَدُ فَلَمَّا جاءَهُمْ بِالْبَيِّناتِ قالُوا هذا سِحْرٌ مُبِينٌ (الصف 6). وبأنه فيما أتى ليس بدعا، فقد أوحى الله إلى كثير من الرسل قبله، إِنَّا أَوْحَيْنا إِلَيْكَ كَما أَوْحَيْنا إِلى نُوحٍ وَالنَّبِيِّينَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَأَوْحَيْنا إِلى إِبْراهِيمَ وَإِسْماعِيلَ وَإِسْحاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَالْأَسْباطِ وَعِيسى وَأَيُّوبَ وَيُونُسَ وَهارُونَ وَسُلَيْمانَ وَآتَيْنا داوُدَ زَبُوراً (النساء 163).
وبأنه أمى ما كان يتلو قبله كتابا، ولا يخطه بيمينه. كما سبق أن ذكرنا، أوليس من يشهد الله له بالرسالة، ويبشر به رسول ذو كتاب، ويجرى على سنن من سبقه من الأنبياء- جديرا بأن يصدق إذا ادعى، وأن يطاع إذا أمر؟ ويناقش من أنكر رسالته، ويدفع دعاويهم في هدوء وقوّة معا، فأخبرنا القرآن مرّة أنهم كانوا ينسبون ما يعرفه محمد من قصص وأخبار وأحكام إلى عالم فارسى يعلمه، وما كان أسهل دحض تلك الدعوى بأن لسان من يدعون أنه يعلّم محمدا- أعجمى، أما هذا الكتاب فعربى مبين، وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّما يُعَلِّمُهُ بَشَرٌ لِسانُ الَّذِي يُلْحِدُونَ إِلَيْهِ أَعْجَمِيٌّ وَهذا لِسانٌ عَرَبِيٌّ مُبِينٌ (النحل 103). وحينا نسبوه إلى أنه سحر أو شعر أو كهانة، بَلْ قالُوا أَضْغاثُ أَحْلامٍ بَلِ افْتَراهُ بَلْ هُوَ شاعِرٌ (الأنبياء 5)، وَيَقُولُونَ أَإِنَّا لَتارِكُوا آلِهَتِنا لِشاعِرٍ مَجْنُونٍ (الصافات 36). فوجه القرآن أنظارهم إلى أن النظرة الصائبة تنفى عن القرآن السحر والشعر والكهانة، فللحق آياته البينات التى لا تشتبه بالسحر، وَإِذا تُتْلى عَلَيْهِمْ آياتُنا بَيِّناتٍ قالُوا ما هذا إِلَّا رَجُلٌ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَصُدَّكُمْ عَمَّا كانَ يَعْبُدُ آباؤُكُمْ وَقالُوا ما هذا إِلَّا إِفْكٌ مُفْتَرىً وَقالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِلْحَقِّ لَمَّا جاءَهُمْ إِنْ هذا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُبِينٌ (سبأ 43). ونفى القرآن عن النبى قول الشعر والكهانة، وَما عَلَّمْناهُ الشِّعْرَ وَما يَنْبَغِي لَهُ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ وَقُرْآنٌ مُبِينٌ (يس 69). وَما هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شاعِرٍ قَلِيلًا ما تُؤْمِنُونَ وَلا بِقَوْلِ كاهِنٍ قَلِيلًا ما تَذَكَّرُونَ (الحاقة 41، 42).
ومن أكبر ما أنكروه على الرسول أنهم وجدوه لا يمتاز على البشر في شىء فهو يأكل الطعام كما يأكلون، ويمشى في الأسواق يبيع ويشترى كما يمشون، وظنوا أنه لا يكون نبيا إلا إذا امتاز بملك ينذر الناس معه، أو أصبح غنيا غنى مطلقا عن الناس، فألقى إليه كنز، أو كانت له جنة يأكل منها، وقد حكى القرآن عنهم ذلك الحديث، وردّ عليهم ردّا رفيقا في قوله: وَقالُوا مالِ هذَا الرَّسُولِ يَأْكُلُ الطَّعامَ وَيَمْشِي فِي الْأَسْواقِ لَوْلا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مَلَكٌ فَيَكُونَ مَعَهُ نَذِيراً أَوْ يُلْقى إِلَيْهِ كَنْزٌ أَوْ تَكُونُ لَهُ جَنَّةٌ يَأْكُلُ مِنْها وَقالَ الظَّالِمُونَ إِنْ تَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا رَجُلًا مَسْحُوراً انْظُرْ كَيْفَ ضَرَبُوا لَكَ الْأَمْثالَ فَضَلُّوا فَلا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ سَبِيلًا تَبارَكَ الَّذِي إِنْ شاءَ جَعَلَ لَكَ خَيْراً مِنْ ذلِكَ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهارُ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكَ قُصُوراً (الفرقان 7 - 10). فهو يشير في رفق إلى أن الحكمة إنما هى فى أن يساوى الرسول الشعب في الاحتياج، حتى لا يكون امتيازه على الناس في أمور لا تتصل بالرسالة، ولا دخل لها في النبوة، وحتى يبقى تقويم الرسول بعيدا عن زخارف الحياة وما ليس من صميم الرسالة، فقد يتهيأ الغنى الفاحش لفرد من الناس، من غير أن يجلب له ذلك رسالة ولا نبوّة ولو أراد الله لفعل للرسول ما اقترحوه وزاد عليه، ولكن الخير والحكمة فيما كان، أما ما اقترحوه من نزول الملك مع الرسول فقد رد عليه في قوله: وَقالُوا لَوْلا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكٌ وَلَوْ أَنْزَلْنا مَلَكاً لَقُضِيَ الْأَمْرُ ثُمَّ لا يُنْظَرُونَ وَلَوْ جَعَلْناهُ مَلَكاً لَجَعَلْناهُ رَجُلًا وَلَلَبَسْنا عَلَيْهِمْ ما يَلْبِسُونَ (الأنعام 8، 9). ألا ترى أن نزول الملك كما اقترحوا لا يدع لهم فرصة التفكير بعد نزوله، ومن الخير أن يترك لهم مجال التدبّر وتقليب الأمر على وجوهه، وإنزال الملك لن يحل المشكل، لأنه سيكون في هيئة رجل، ويلتبس الأمر كما لو كان الرسول رجلا والقرآن برغم ذلك، يوحى بأن الرسول كانت عنده رغبة ملحة في أن يحقق لهم بعض ما اقترحوه ليؤمنوا، ولتجتمع كلمتهم على الدين، حتى صحّ للقرآن أن يقول للرسول: وَإِنْ كانَ كَبُرَ عَلَيْكَ إِعْراضُهُمْ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَبْتَغِيَ نَفَقاً فِي الْأَرْضِ أَوْ سُلَّماً فِي السَّماءِ فَتَأْتِيَهُمْ بِآيَةٍ وَلَوْ شاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَمَعَهُمْ عَلَى الْهُدى فَلا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْجاهِلِينَ (الأنعام 35).
ويقول في أخرى: فَلَعَلَّكَ تارِكٌ بَعْضَ ما يُوحى إِلَيْكَ وَضائِقٌ بِهِ صَدْرُكَ أَنْ يَقُولُوا لَوْلا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ كَنْزٌ أَوْ جاءَ مَعَهُ مَلَكٌ إِنَّما أَنْتَ نَذِيرٌ وَاللَّهُ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَكِيلٌ (هود 12).
وكانت صفة البشرية حائلة دون الايمان به، ومدعاة للهزء بالرسول والسخرية به، فَقالُوا أَبَشَراً مِنَّا واحِداً نَتَّبِعُهُ إِنَّا إِذاً لَفِي ضَلالٍ وَسُعُرٍ (القمر 24). وَلَئِنْ أَطَعْتُمْ بَشَراً مِثْلَكُمْ إِنَّكُمْ إِذاً لَخاسِرُونَ (المؤمنون 34). وقد رد الله تلك الدعوى بأن الحكمة تقضى بأن الرسول يكون من جنس المرسل إليهم، ليكون أدنى إلى نفوسهم، يألفونه ويسهل اتصالهم به، ولو أن في الأرض ملائكة يسكنونها، ما أرسل الله إليهم رسولا، سوى ملك من جنسهم، قال سبحانه: وَما مَنَعَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يُؤْمِنُوا إِذْ جاءَهُمُ الْهُدى إِلَّا أَنْ قالُوا أَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ بَشَراً رَسُولًا قُلْ لَوْ كانَ فِي الْأَرْضِ مَلائِكَةٌ يَمْشُونَ مُطْمَئِنِّينَ لَنَزَّلْنا عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ السَّماءِ مَلَكاً رَسُولًا (الإسراء 94 - 95).
وعند ما تعرّض القرآن للاستهزاء بالرسول، كان لا يعنيه كثيرا الردّ على ما يتعلق بشخص الرسول، بل ينتقل مباشرة إلى صميم الدعوى يناقشهم فيها، ويحدثهم عن مغبّة كفرهم، قال تعالى: وَإِذا رَآكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلَّا هُزُواً أَهذَا الَّذِي يَذْكُرُ آلِهَتَكُمْ وَهُمْ بِذِكْرِ الرَّحْمنِ هُمْ كافِرُونَ خُلِقَ الْإِنْسانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍ سَأُرِيكُمْ آياتِي فَلا تَسْتَعْجِلُونِ وَيَقُولُونَ مَتى هذَا الْوَعْدُ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صادِقِينَ لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا حِينَ لا يَكُفُّونَ عَنْ وُجُوهِهِمُ النَّارَ وَلا عَنْ ظُهُورِهِمْ وَلا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ بَلْ تَأْتِيهِمْ بَغْتَةً فَتَبْهَتُهُمْ فَلا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ رَدَّها وَلا هُمْ يُنْظَرُونَ (الأنبياء 36 - 40). ألا تراه قد مرّ مرّ الكرام باستهزائهم بالرسول، وكأنه لغو لا يؤبه له، ولا يستحق الالتفات إليه، ولا التّنبّه لشأنه، وانتقل من ذلك إلى الحديث عما يعنى القرآن بشأنه، من الحديث عن الله واليوم الآخر، وما ينتظرهم من عذاب كان جديرا به أن يصرفهم عن التمادى في الباطل، لو أنهم فكروا في الأمر وتدبّروا العاقبة، ويقول في موضع آخر: وَإِذا رَأَوْكَ إِنْ يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلَّا هُزُواً أَهذَا الَّذِي بَعَثَ اللَّهُ رَسُولًا إِنْ كادَ لَيُضِلُّنا عَنْ آلِهَتِنا لَوْلا أَنْ صَبَرْنا عَلَيْها وَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ حِينَ يَرَوْنَ الْعَذابَ مَنْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا أَرَأَيْتَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ إِلهَهُ هَواهُ أَفَأَنْتَ تَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ وَكِيلًا أَمْ تَحْسَبُ أَنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ يَسْمَعُونَ أَوْ يَعْقِلُونَ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا كَالْأَنْعامِ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا (الفرقان 41 - 44). وهو هنا أيضا ينتقل إلى صميم الدعوى، فيتحدث عن اتخاذهم الهوى إلها، وأنهم لا يستخدمون آذانهم وعقولهم فيما خلقت لأجله، فصاروا بذلك أضل سبيلا من الأنعام.
ويهوّن القرآن على الرسول أمر الاستهزاء به وتكذيبه، فحينا يخبره بأن ذلك دأب الرّسل، يكذّبون برغم ما يجيئون به من البينات والهدى، ويؤكد له مرة بأن هؤلاء الساخرين سينالهم ما نبّئوا بنزوله بهم، وكانوا يسخرون ولا يطيعون، فيقول للرسول: فَإِنْ كَذَّبُوكَ فَقَدْ كُذِّبَ رُسُلٌ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ جاؤُ بِالْبَيِّناتِ وَالزُّبُرِ وَالْكِتابِ الْمُنِيرِ (آل عمران 184). وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِئَ بِرُسُلٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ فَحاقَ بِالَّذِينَ سَخِرُوا مِنْهُمْ ما كانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِؤُنَ (الأنعام 10).
وينذر القرآن المكذبين والمستهزئين بأن عاقبتهم كعاقبة من كذّب الرسل من قبل: أخذ شديد وعقاب أليم، وهنا يلجأ القرآن إلى غريزة المحافظة على النفس، فيصوّر رفض الدعوة والتكذيب لها معرّضا أنفسهم للتهلكة، وجالبا الوبال عليها، فماذا تكون النتيجة إذا هم أصرّوا على كفرهم؟ أضمنوا أعمارا طويلة، يصلحون فيها ما كانوا قد أفسدوه؟ أَوَلَمْ يَنْظُرُوا فِي مَلَكُوتِ السَّماواتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَما خَلَقَ اللَّهُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ وَأَنْ عَسى أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ أَجَلُهُمْ فَبِأَيِّ حَدِيثٍ بَعْدَهُ يُؤْمِنُونَ (الأعراف 185). أأمنوا مكر الله؟ أم اطمأنوا إلى أن القيامة لن تأتيهم فجأة؟ أَفَأَمِنُوا أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمْ غاشِيَةٌ مِنْ عَذابِ اللَّهِ أَوْ تَأْتِيَهُمُ السَّاعَةُ بَغْتَةً وَهُمْ لا يَشْعُرُونَ (يوسف 107). إنهم بنهيهم عنه، ونأيهم عنه لا يضرون إلا أنفسهم ولا يهلكون غيرها، وَهُمْ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْهُ وَيَنْأَوْنَ عَنْهُ وَإِنْ يُهْلِكُونَ إِلَّا أَنْفُسَهُمْ وَما يَشْعُرُونَ (الأنعام 26). ولن يضرّ الرسول بكفرهم، فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَإِنَّما عَلَيْكَ الْبَلاغُ الْمُبِينُ (النحل 82). فَإِنْ أَعْرَضُوا فَما أَرْسَلْناكَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَفِيظاً إِنْ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا الْبَلاغُ (الشورى 48).
أوليس في قصر أمر الرسول على البلاغ، ما يدفعهم إلى التفكير في أمر هذه الدعوة التى لن يحمل عبء أضرار رفضها غيرهم، والتى يتحمّل الرسول المشاق فى سبيل إذاعتها، لا يبغى من وراء ذلك أجرا، ولا يريد إلا أن تصل الهداية إلى قلوبهم، قُلْ ما سَأَلْتُكُمْ مِنْ أَجْرٍ فَهُوَ لَكُمْ إِنْ أَجْرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَى اللَّهِ وَهُوَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ (سبأ 47).
وإن في تنزّه الرسول عن الغرض المادىّ، وإخلاصه في دعوتهم وإرشادهم، لبعثا لهم على تدبر أمر هذه الدعوة المبرأة من الهوى والغرض، والنفس بطبيعتها تنقاد لمثل هذه الدعوة وتؤمن بها. وقد دعاهم القرآن إلى التفكير في شأن الرسول، فرادى وجماعات، ليقلبوا أمره على وجوهه، ويتفكروا أبه جنّة أو شذوذ؟ وسوف يصلون إذا فكروا إلى أنه نذير لهم بين يدى عذاب شديد.
ويمضى القرآن محببا لهم إجابة دعوة محمد، مبينا طبيعتها، وأنها توافق الإنسانية السليمة، فهو لا يأمر إلا بما تعترف به النفوس الصحيحة ولا ينهى إلا عما تنكره، ولا يحلّ سوى الطّيب، ولا يحرّم سوى الخبيث، وأنه يعمل على تخليصهم من عادات ثقيلة على النفوس، وقيود كانت تغل حياتهم، وقد خفف الإسلام كثيرا من القيود التى كانت على أهل الكتاب، يقول الله: الَّذِينَ يَتَّبِعُونَ الرَّسُولَ النَّبِيَّ الْأُمِّيَّ الَّذِي يَجِدُونَهُ مَكْتُوباً عِنْدَهُمْ فِي التَّوْراةِ وَالْإِنْجِيلِ يَأْمُرُهُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهاهُمْ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَيُحِلُّ لَهُمُ الطَّيِّباتِ وَيُحَرِّمُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْخَبائِثَ وَيَضَعُ عَنْهُمْ إِصْرَهُمْ وَالْأَغْلالَ الَّتِي كانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ فَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِهِ وَعَزَّرُوهُ وَنَصَرُوهُ وَاتَّبَعُوا النُّورَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ مَعَهُ أُولئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ (الأعراف 157). أما الأميون، وقد كانوا في ضلال مبين فإنه يعلمهم الكتاب والحكمة ويهديهم، هُوَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ فِي الْأُمِّيِّينَ رَسُولًا مِنْهُمْ يَتْلُوا عَلَيْهِمْ آياتِهِ وَيُزَكِّيهِمْ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ الْكِتابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَإِنْ كانُوا مِنْ قَبْلُ لَفِي ضَلالٍ مُبِينٍ (الجمعة 2). ويجعل طريق حب الله ونيل رضوانه اتباع منهجه والاقتداء به، قُلْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تُحِبُّونَ اللَّهَ فَاتَّبِعُونِي يُحْبِبْكُمُ اللَّهُ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبَكُمْ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ (آل عمران 31). ومن أطاعه فسيكون مع من أنعم الله عليهم من أكرم الرفقاء، وَمَنْ يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فَأُولئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَالصِّدِّيقِينَ وَالشُّهَداءِ وَالصَّالِحِينَ وَحَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً (النساء 69). ومن آمن وعمل صالحا فسوف يورّثه الله الأرض، ويمكن له دينه، ويبدله بالخوف أمنا وطمأنينة، وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنْكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ كَمَا اسْتَخْلَفَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ الَّذِي ارْتَضى لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْناً (النور 55).
ولا يكتفى القرآن بالوعد المحبوب حين طلب إليهم طاعة الرسول، بل أنذرهم وأوعدهم، وأكّد لهم أن النهاية ستكون نصرا مؤزرا للرسول أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُوا أَنَّهُ مَنْ يُحادِدِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَأَنَّ لَهُ نارَ جَهَنَّمَ خالِداً فِيها (التوبة 63). ويقول: فَلْيَحْذَرِ الَّذِينَ يُخالِفُونَ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ أَنْ تُصِيبَهُمْ فِتْنَةٌ أَوْ يُصِيبَهُمْ عَذابٌ أَلِيمٌ (النور 63). إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُؤْذُونَ اللَّهَ
وَرَسُولَهُ لَعَنَهُمُ اللَّهُ فِي الدُّنْيا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ عَذاباً مُهِيناً
(الأحزاب 57). ويخاطب الرسول قائلا:
وَلَقَدْ كُذِّبَتْ رُسُلٌ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ فَصَبَرُوا عَلى ما كُذِّبُوا وَأُوذُوا حَتَّى أَتاهُمْ نَصْرُنا وَلا مُبَدِّلَ لِكَلِماتِ اللَّهِ وَلَقَدْ جاءَكَ مِنْ نَبَإِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ (الأنعام 34). وينزل القرآن إلى أعماق نفوسهم، فيحدثنا عن شكوكهم التى تنتابهم، فهم يقولون في أغوار قلوبهم: إذا كان محمد على صواب، ونحن على خطأ، فلم يدعنا الله أحرارا في هذه الحياة ولا يعذبنا بسبب هذه التّصرّفات، والله ينبئهم بأن جهنم مصيرهم المنتظر، أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ نُهُوا عَنِ النَّجْوى ثُمَّ يَعُودُونَ لِما نُهُوا عَنْهُ وَيَتَناجَوْنَ بِالْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوانِ وَمَعْصِيَةِ الرَّسُولِ وَإِذا جاؤُكَ حَيَّوْكَ بِما لَمْ يُحَيِّكَ بِهِ اللَّهُ وَيَقُولُونَ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ لَوْلا يُعَذِّبُنَا اللَّهُ بِما نَقُولُ حَسْبُهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ يَصْلَوْنَها فَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيرُ (المجادلة 8).
ويعلم القرآن ما لحوادث التاريخ من الأثر في النفوس، ولذا أكثر، فى معرض الأمر بطاعة الرسول، من توجيه أنظارهم إلى من كذّب من الماضين كيف كانت عاقبتهم، فلعلهم يتّعظون بها، فيسأل: أَوَلَمْ يَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ فَيَنْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كانَ عاقِبَةُ الَّذِينَ كانُوا مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ كانُوا هُمْ أَشَدَّ مِنْهُمْ قُوَّةً وَآثاراً فِي الْأَرْضِ فَأَخَذَهُمُ اللَّهُ بِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَما كانَ لَهُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ واقٍ ذلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كانَتْ تَأْتِيهِمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّناتِ فَكَفَرُوا فَأَخَذَهُمُ اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ قَوِيٌّ شَدِيدُ الْعِقابِ (غافر 21، 22). ويقصّ عليهم قصص الماضين كقوله: فَإِنْ أَعْرَضُوا فَقُلْ أَنْذَرْتُكُمْ صاعِقَةً مِثْلَ صاعِقَةِ عادٍ وَثَمُودَ إِذْ جاءَتْهُمُ الرُّسُلُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا اللَّهَ قالُوا لَوْ شاءَ رَبُّنا لَأَنْزَلَ مَلائِكَةً فَإِنَّا بِما أُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهِ كافِرُونَ فَأَمَّا عادٌ فَاسْتَكْبَرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ وَقالُوا مَنْ أَشَدُّ مِنَّا قُوَّةً أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا أَنَّ اللَّهَ الَّذِي خَلَقَهُمْ هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُمْ قُوَّةً وَكانُوا بِآياتِنا يَجْحَدُونَ فَأَرْسَلْنا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحاً صَرْصَراً فِي أَيَّامٍ نَحِساتٍ لِنُذِيقَهُمْ عَذابَ الْخِزْيِ فِي الْحَياةِ الدُّنْيا وَلَعَذابُ الْآخِرَةِ أَخْزى وَهُمْ لا يُنْصَرُونَ وَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَهَدَيْناهُمْ فَاسْتَحَبُّوا الْعَمى عَلَى الْهُدى فَأَخَذَتْهُمْ صاعِقَةُ الْعَذابِ الْهُونِ بِما كانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ وَنَجَّيْنَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَكانُوا يَتَّقُونَ (فصلت 13 - 18).
ولم يأل القرآن جهدا في تصوير من لا يستجيب إلى دعوة محمد في صورة ينفر منها العاقل، ويأنف من أن تكون صورته، فحينا يرسمهم أمواتا لا يعون، صما لا يسمعون، عميا لا يبصرون، فيقول: وَما يَسْتَوِي الْأَحْياءُ وَلَا الْأَمْواتُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُسْمِعُ مَنْ يَشاءُ وَما أَنْتَ بِمُسْمِعٍ مَنْ فِي الْقُبُورِ إِنْ أَنْتَ إِلَّا نَذِيرٌ (فاطر 22، 23).
وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَسْتَمِعُونَ إِلَيْكَ أَفَأَنْتَ تُسْمِعُ الصُّمَّ وَلَوْ كانُوا لا يَعْقِلُونَ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْكَ أَفَأَنْتَ تَهْدِي الْعُمْيَ وَلَوْ كانُوا لا يُبْصِرُونَ (يونس 42، 43).
وأكثر القرآن من أمر الرسول بالصّبر، وهو خليقة أولى العزم من الرسل فقال:
فَاصْبِرْ كَما صَبَرَ أُولُوا الْعَزْمِ مِنَ الرُّسُلِ وَلا تَسْتَعْجِلْ لَهُمْ (الأحقاف 35). وقال: وَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنا (الطور 48). وقال: وَاصْبِرْ وَما صَبْرُكَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ وَلا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ (النحل 127). وقال: وَاصْبِرْ عَلى ما يَقُولُونَ وَاهْجُرْهُمْ هَجْراً جَمِيلًا (المزمل 10). إلى غير ذلك من كثير الآيات التى تدعو الرسول إلى الصبر، وتحثه عليه، ولا ريب أن دعوة دينية جديدة تتطلب زادا لا ينفد من الصبر على المكروه حتى تنجح وتؤتى ثمارها.
أما المنهج الذى رسمه ــالقرآن، لكى ينهجه محمد في دعوته، فقد بينه في قوله:

خصم

1 خَصِمَ, aor. ـَ [inf. n., app., خَصَمٌ,] He contended in an altercation, disputed, or litigated, in a valid, or sound, manner. (Msb.) b2: See also 3: b3: and 8.3 خاصمهُ, inf. n. مُخَاصَمَةٌ (S, Msb, K) and خِصَامٌ (S, Msb) and [quasi-inf. n.] خُصُومَةٌ, (K,) the last said in the S to be a simple subst., (TA,) He contended with him in an altercation, disputed with him, or litigated with him; (K, TA;) i. q. نَازَعَهُ: (Mgh and Msb and K in art. نزع:) accord. to El-Harállee, الخِصَامُ signifies the saying which the listener is made to hear, and which is made to enter his ear-hole, such as may cause him to refrain, or desist, from his assertion, and his plea, or claim. (TA.) You say, خَاصَمْتُهُ

↓ فَخَصَمْتُهُ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, *) aor. of the latter أَخْصِمُهُ, with kesr, (S, K, *) or أَخْصُمُهُ, with damm, (Mgh, Msb,) or not with damm, (S,) or both these forms of the aor. are used, accord. to AHei; the latter agreeable with analogy; (MF;) the former anomalous; for the regular aor. of an unaugmented sound verb in a case of this kind is with damm, (S, K,) as in the instance of عَالَمْتُهُ فَعَلَمْتُهُ, aor. ـْ (S;) if it has not a faucial letter (S, K) for its medial radical, (K,) in which case it is with fet-h, as in the instance of فَاخَرْتُهُ فَفَخَرْتُهُ, aor. ـْ (S, K,) accord. to the opinion of Ks, but this is contr. to the opinion generally held: (MF:) the inf. n. of خَصَمْتُهُ is خَصْمٌ: (S, * TA:) and the meaning is, [I contended with him in an altercation, or I disputed, or litigated, with him, and] I overcame him in the altercation, &c. (Mgh, Msb.) A2: خاصمهُ also signifies He put it in, or by, the خُصْم, i. e. edge, or side, of the bed. (TA.) 4 اخصمهُ He dictated to him his plea against his adversary in an altercation or a dispute or litigation, (JK, TA,) whereby he might overcome the latter. (JK.) 6 تَخَاْصَمَ see the next paragraph, in two places.8 اختصموا They contended in altercation, disputed, or litigated, one with another; (Msb, TA;) i. q. ↓ تخاصموا; (S, K, TA;) both signifying as above. (TA.) He who reads يَخَصِّمُونَ [in the Kur xxxvi. 49] means يَخْتَصِمُونَ; changing the ت into ص, and incorporating [it into the other ص], and transferring its vowel to the خ: some read يَخِصِّمُونَ, without transferring that vowel; (S, K;) because a quiescent letter, when it is made movent, is [regularly] made so with kesr: (S:) AA slurred the vowel of the خ: the pronunciation [يَخْصِّمُونَ] with two quiescent letters together is incorrect: (S, K:) Hamzeh read ↓ يَخْصِمُونَ, (S,) i. e., with the خ quiescent and with kesr to the ص. (TA.) b2: اِخْتَصَمَا إِلَيْهِ They two applied to him for the decision of a cause, each of them claiming the right. (TA in art. قمط.) And إِلَيْهِ ↓ تُخُوصِمَ [An application was made to him by litigants for the decision of a cause]. (Mgh in art. دلو.) A2: السَّيْفُ يَخْتَصِمُ جَفْنَهُ, said by J to signify The sword cuts (lit. eats) its scabbard, by reason of its sharpness, is a mistake; the verb being correctly with ض, (K, * TA,) dotted. (TA.) خَصْمٌ An adversary in contention or altercation, in dispute, or in litigation; an antagonist; a litigant: (JK, K, TA:) as also ↓ خَصِيمٌ: (JK, S, K, TA:) the former is used alike as masc. and fem. (S, Msb, K) and sing. (JK, S, Msb, K) and dual (Msb, K) and pl.; (JK, S, Msb, K;) because it is originally an inf. n.: (S, TA:) [see an ex. of its use in a pl. sense in a verse cited voce جَنَفٌ:] but it also has the dual form, خَصْمَانِ; (S, Msb;) and the pl. خُصُومٌ (JK, S, Msb, K) and خِصَامٌ (Msb) and perhaps أَخْصَامٌ, [which is a pl. of pauc.,] or this may be pl. of خَصِمٌ: (TA:) the pl. of ↓ خَصِيمٌ is خُصَمَآءُ (JK, S, K) and خُصْمَانٌ. (K.) خُصْمٌ The side (S, K) of anything; (S, TA;) as, for instance, of a load such as is called عِدْل; (S;) and of a bed; and the edge thereof: (TA:) written by Aboo-Moosà with ض; but IAth says that it is correctly with ص: (TA in art. خضم:) a lateral part or portion (S, K) of anything: (S:) a corner, (S, K,) as well as a side, (S,) of an عِدْل, and of a receptacle, such as a خُرْج or a جُوَالِق or an عَيْبَة: (S:) and the [anterior lower] extremity of a [water-bag of the kind termed] رَاوِيَة, that is opposite to the عَزْلَآء; (JK, K, TA; [in the CK, الزّاوِيَةِ and الغَزْلاءِ are erroneously put for الرَّاوِيَةِ and العَزْلَآءِ;]) the upper extremity [correctly extremities, at which are the loops whereby it is suspended upon the side of the camel,] being called the عصم [i. e. عُصْم, pl. of عِصَامٌ]: (TA:) pl. [of pauc.] أَخْصَامٌ and [of mult.] خُصُومٌ: (K:) but some say that the أَخْصَام of the [water-bag termed] مَزَادَة, and its خُصُوم, are its corners: the خُصُوم of a cloud are its sides: (TA:) and أَخْصَامُ العَيْنِ signifies the part, or parts, of the eye upon which the edges of the lids close together. (S, K.) b2: [Also A gap, or an intervening space: it is said in the TA that] الأَخْصَامُ [pl. of الخُصْمُ] signifies الفرج [i. e. الفُرَجُ, pl. of الفُرْجَةُ: and it is added,] one says, of an unsound, a corrupt, or a disordered, affair, لَا يُسَّدُ مِنْهُ خُصْمٌ إِلَّا انْفَتَحَ خُصْمٌ آخَرُ (tropical:) [A gap of it will not be stopped up but another gap will open]; occurring in a trad., meaning, the state of affairs is disordered and distressing, and not to be rectified and repaired. (TA.) b3: [The pl.] خُصُومٌ also signifies The mouths of valleys. (JK, K.) b4: And The lower parts, or stocks, syn. أُصُولٌ, (JK, K,) of [trees of the kind called]

And خَذَلَتْ She (a wild animal, S, O, or a gazelle, K) remained attending to her young one [when the rest of the herd had gone]; (S, O, K;) said by some to be inverted [as to the meaning], because she is [not the one that leaves, but] the one that is left; (S;) as also ↓ تخاذلت, (S, K,) and ↓ اخذلت. (K.) b3: A poet says, (namely, 'Adee Ibn-Zeyd, TA,) describing a horse, فَهْوَ كَالدَّلْوِ بِكَفِّ المُسْتَقِى

(T.) 6 تخاذلوا They abstained from, or neglected, aiding, or assisting, one another: (S:) i. q. تدابروا [which has the foregoing signification accord. to the TA, but properly means they turned their backs, one upon another]: (K:) they left, forsook, or deserted, one another in trouble. (MA.) [And, accord. to Freytag's Lex., They fled from fight, or battle.] b2: تخاذلت رِجْلَاهُ (said of an old man, TA) His legs became weak (S, K, TA) in consequence of some evil affection.

(S, Msb, K.) A2: Also A tall palm-tree: (O, K:) [see ↓ عُلْبٌ (voce سَاجِدٌ), a coll. gen. n. used as a pl.; or a pl., and, if so, app. a contraction of عُلَبٌ, by poetic license: Sgh, however, adds,] but some say that it is ↓ عَلَبَةٌ [i. e.] بِالتَّحْرِيك.

عِلْبَآءٌ [perfectly decl., because the ء is a letter of quasi-coordination, i. e., added to render the word quasi-coordinate to the class of قِرْطَاسٌ and the like,] The عَصَب of the neck; [app. meaning the upper, cervical, tendinous portion of the trapezius muscle;] (S, O, K; [in all of which, mention is made of the علبآء of the camel, to which it seems to be most commonly applied, and also to that of a man;]) it is one of a pair, and between one علبآء and the other is the place of growth of the mane; (S, O;) Az explains it as specially applied to the thick عَصَب; and IAth, as the عَصَب in the neck, extending to the كَاهِل [or part between the two shoulder-blades]: ISd says that it is syn. with عَقَبٌ [q. v.]: (TA:) [it is also said that] it signifies the عَصَبَة [i. e. tendon, or sinew,] that extends in the neck: (Msb:) or the yellow عَصَبَة in the side (صَفْحَة) of the neck; one of a pair: (A:) and the عِلْبَاوَانِ in a man are [said to be] the two yellow tendons or sinews (العَصَبَتَانِ الصَّفْرَاوَانِ) in the مَتْن [or part next the spine, on either side,] of the neck: (Zj in his “ Khalk el-Insán: ”) [but of all the meanings thus assigned to it, the first seems to be the most proper, or at least the most usual: see Q. Q. 1:] the Arabs used to bind therewith, in the fresh, or moist, state, the أَجْفَان [or sheaths] of their swords, and also their spears when cracked, and it dried upon them, and became strong: (IAth, TA:) the word is masc., (Lh, TA,) or [it is masc. and fem., but] the making it fem. is preferred [though this is contr. to analogy]: (Msb:) the dual is عِلْبَاوَانِ (S, A, O, Msb) and عِلْبَا آنِ; (S, O, Msb, K;) [the former app. the more common, but the latter the more proper;] for the ء [in the sing.] is a letter of quasi-coordination [and therefore properly with tenween]; but if you will, you may liken it to the fem. ء that is in حَمْرَآءُ [of which the dual is more properly حَمْرَاوَانِ], or to the radical ء [or rather the ء that is substituted for the last radical letter] in كِسَآءٌ [of which the dual is more pro-perly كِسَا آنِ]: (S, O:) and the pl. is عَلَابِىُّ. (S, O, K.) You say of a man when he has become advanced in age, تَشَنَّجَ عِلْبَآءُ الرَّجُلِ [The علبآء of the man has become contracted]. (S, O.) b2: The pl. عَلَابِىُّ is expl. in the K as signifying also Lead: and in the S as signifying lead, or a kind thereof: (TA:) El-Kutabee says, “I have been told that العَلَابِىُّ signifies lead; but I am not sure of it: ” and Az says, “I know not any one who has said it, and it is not true; ” (O, TA;) and this is the case: (O:) MF observes that its explanation as signifying lead requires it to be a sing. of a pl. form, or a pl. that has no sing., like أَبَابِيلُ and عَبَادِيدُ: (TA:) in a trad., mention is made of swords of which the ornaments were العلابىّ and الآنُك; (O, TA;) and the coupling of these two words together has led to the supposition that the former means lead; but there is no evading the fact that it is the pl. of علبَآء meaning the عَصَب of the camel. (TA.) عُلْبُوبَةُ القَوْمِ The best persons of the people, or party. (Sh, O, K.) عِلَابٌ A mark made with a hot iron along the length of the neck [of a camel], (S, O, K,) upon, or over, the عِلْبَآء.
