قِنَّسْرين:
بكسر أوله، وفتح ثانيه وتشديده وقد كسره قوم ثم سين مهملة، قال بطليموس: مدينة قنسرين طولها تسع وثلاثون درجة وعشرون دقيقة، وعرضها خمس وثلاثون درجة وعشرون دقيقة، في الإقليم الرابع، ارتفاعه ثمان وسبعون درجة، وأفقها إحدى وتسعون درجة وخمس عشرة دقيقة، طالعها العذراء، بيت حياتها الذراع تحت اثنتي عشرة درجة من السرطان يقابلها مثلها من الجدي، بيت ملكها من الحمل، عاقبتها مثلها من الميزان، وقال صاحب الزيج: طول قنسرين ثلاث وثلاثون درجة، وعرضها أربع وثلاثون درجة وثلث، وفي جبلها مشهد يقال إنه قبر صالح النبي، عليه السّلام، وفيه آثار أقدام الناقة، والصحيح أن قبره باليمن بشبوة، وقيل بمكة، والله أعلم، وكان فتح قنسرين على يد أبي عبيدة بن الجراح، رضي الله عنه، في سنة 17، وكانت حمص وقنسرين شيئا واحدا، قال أحمد بن يحيى: سار أبو عبيدة بن الجراح بعد فراغه من اليرموك إلى حمص فاستقراها ثم أتى قنسرين وعلى مقدمته خالد بن الوليد فقاتله أهل مدينة قنسرين ثم لجؤوا إلى حصنهم وطلبوا الصلح فصالحهم وغلب المسلمون على أرضها وقراها، وقال أبو بكر بن الأنباري: أخذت من قول العرب قنسريّ أي مسنّ، وأنشد للعجاج:
أطربا وأنت قنسريّ، ... والدهر بالإنسان دوّاريّ؟
وأنشد غيره:
وقنسرته أمور فاقسأنّ لها، ... وقد حنى ظهره دهر وقد كبرا
وقال أبو المنذر: سميت قنسرين لأن ميسرة بن مسروق العبسي مرّ عليها فلما نظر إليها قال: ما هذه؟ فسميت له بالرومية، فقال: والله لكأنّها قنّ نسر، فسميت قنسرين، وقال الزمخشري: نقل من القنّسر بمعنى القنسري وهو الشيخ الــمسن وجمع هو، وأمثاله كثيرة، قال أبو بكر بن الأنباري: وفي إعرابها وجهان، يجوز أن تجريها مجرى قولك الزيدون فتجعلها في الرفع بالواو فتقول هذه قنّسرون، وفي النصب والخفض بالياء فتقول مررت بقنسرين ورأيت قنسرين، والوجه الآخر أن تجعلها بالياء على كل حال وتجعل الإعراب في النون ولا تصرفها، قال أبو القاسم:
هذا الذي ذكره من طريق اللغة ولم يسمّ البلد بذلك لما ذكره، ولكن روي أنها سميت برجل من عبس يقال له ميسرة وذلك أنه نزلها فمر به رجل فقال له:
ما أشبه هذا الموضع بقنّ سيرين! فبني منه اسم للمكان، وقال آخرون: دعا أبو عبيدة بن الجراح ميسرة بن مسروق العبسي فوجهه في ألف فارس في أثر العدوّ فمر على قنسرين فجعل ينظر إليها فقال: ما هذه؟
فسميت له بالرومية، فقال: والله لكأنها قنّسرون، فسميت قنسرين، ثم مضى حتى بلغ الدرب فكان أول من جاوز الدرب من المسلمين، فهذا الخبر يدل على أن قنسرين اسم مكان آخر عرفه ميسرة العبسي فشبهه به، وقد روي في خبر مشهور عن النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلم: أوحى الله تعالى إليّ أيّ هؤلاء الثلاث نزلت فهي دار هجرتك، المدينة أو البحرين أو قنسرين، وهي كورة بالشام منها حلب، وكانت قنسرين مدينة بينها وبين حلب مرحلة من جهة حمص بقرب العواصم، وبعض يدخل قنسرين في العواصم، وما زالت عامرة آهلة إلى أن كانت سنة 351، وغلبت الروم على مدينة حلب وقتلت جميع ما كان بربضها فخاف أهل قنسرين وتفرقوا في البلاد، فطائفة عبرت الفرات وطائفة نقلها سيف الدولة بن حمدان إلى حلب كثّر بهم من بقي من أهلها فليس بها اليوم إلا خان ينزله القوافل وعشار السلطان وفريضة صغيرة، وقال بعضهم: كان خراب قنسرين في سنة 355 قبل موت سيف الدولة بأشهر، كان قد خرج إليها ملك الروم وعجز سيف الدولة عن لقائه فأمال عنه فجاء إلى قنسرين وخرّبها وأحرق مساجدها ولم تعمر بعد ذلك، وحاضر قنسرين بلدة باقية إلى الآن، ذكرت في موضعها، وقال المدائني: خرج أعرابي من طيّء إلى الشام إلى بني عمّ له يطلب صلتهم فلم يعطوه طائلا وعرضوا عليه الفرض فأبى ثم قدم قنسرين فأعطوه شيئا قليلا وقالوا تفترض، فقال:
أقمنا بقنسرين ستة أشهر ... ونصفا من الشهر الذي هو سابع
فقال ابن هيفاء: دع البدو وافترض، ... فقلت له: إني إلى الله راجع
يؤمّون بي موقان أو يفرضون بي ... إلى الرّيّ لا يسمع بذلك سامع
ألا حبّذا مبدى هشام إذا بدا ... لارفاق زيد أو دعته البرادع
وحلّت جنوب الأبرقين إلى اللوى ... إلى حيث سارت بالهبير الدوافع
ثم خرج من الشام إلى العراق فركب الفرات فخاف أهوالها فقال:
وما زال صرف الدهر حتى رأيتني ... على سفن وسط الفرات بنا تجري
يصير بنا صار ويجذف جاذف، ... وما منهما إلّا مخوف على غدري
ثم أتى الكوفة وطلب من قومه فلم يصل إلى ما يريد فرجع إلى البادية فقالوا: أطلت الغيبة فما أفدت؟
فقال:
رجعنا سالمين كما بدأنا، ... وما خابت غنيمة سالمينا

(سَوَدَ)
(هـ س) فِيهِ «أَنَّهُ جَاءَهُ رجُلٌ فَقَالَ: أنتَ سَيِّدُ قُرَيش، فَقَالَ: السَّيِّدُ اللهُ» أَيْ هُوَ الَّذِي تَحِقُّ لَهُ السِّيَادَةُ. كأنَّه كَره أَنْ يُحْمَد فِي وَجْهِهِ، وأحَبَّ التَّواضُع.
(س) وَمِنْهُ الْحَدِيثُ «لمَّا قَالُوا لَهُ أَنْتَ سَيِّدُنَا، قَالَ: قُولُوا بقَولِكم» أَيِ ادْعُوني نَبِيًّا وَرَسُولًا كَمَا سمَّاني اللهُ، وَلَا تُسمُّوني سيِّدا كَمَا تُسمُّون رُؤساءَكم، فَإِنِّي لسْتُ كأحَدِهم مِمَّنْ يَسُودُكُمْ فِي أَسْبَابِ الدُّنْيَا.
(هـ) وَمِنْهُ الْحَدِيثُ «أَنَا سَيِّدُ وَلدِ آدَم وَلَا فَخْرَ» قَالَهُ إِخْبَارًا عَمَّا أَكْرَمَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى بِهِ مِنَ الْفَضْلِ والسُّودَد، وتحدُّثاً بِنِعْمَةِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى عِنْدَهُ، وَإِعْلَامًا لأمُّته لِيَكُونَ إيمانُهم بِهِ عَلَى حَسَبه ومُوجَبه.
وَلِهَذَا أتْبَعه بِقَوْلِهِ وَلَا فَخْر: أَيْ أنَّ هَذِهِ الفَضِيلة الَّتِي نِلْتها كَرامةٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ لَمْ أنَلْها مِنْ قِبَل نَفْسي، وَلَا بَلْغتُها بقُوَّتي، فَلَيْسَ لِي أَنْ أفْتَخِر بِهَا.
(س) وَفِيهِ «قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنِ السَّيِّدُ؟ قَالَ: يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ، قَالُوا: فَمَا فِي أُمَّتِك مِنْ سَيِّد؟ قَالَ: بَلَى، مَنْ آتاَه اللهُ مَالًا، ورُزِقَ سَمَاحَةً فأدَّى شُكْرَهُ، وقَلَّت شكاَيتُه فِي النَّاسِ» .
(س) وَمِنْهُ «كُلُّ بَنِي آدَمَ سَيِّدٌ، فالرجُل سَيِّدُ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ، وَالْمَرْأَةُ سَيِّدَةُ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهَا» .
(س) وَفِي حَدِيثِهِ لِلْأَنْصَارِ «قَالَ: مَن سَيِّدُكُمْ؟ قَالُوا: الجَدُّ بنُ قَيسٍ، عَلَى أَنَّا نُبَخِّلُه. قَالَ وَأَيُّ داءٍ أدْوَي مِنَ البُخْل» .
(هـ س) وَفِيهِ «أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا سَيِّد» قِيلَ أَرَادَ بِهِ الحليمَ، لِأَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي تَمَامِهِ «وإنَّ اللَّهَ يُصْلِحُ بِهِ بَيْنَ فِئَتَيْنِ عَظِيمَتَيْنِ مِنَ المسْلمين».
(س) وَفِيهِ «أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِلْأَنْصَارِ: قومُوا إِلَى سَيِّدِكُمْ» يَعْنِي سعْدَ بْنَ مُعاَذ. أَرَادَ أَفْضَلَكُمْ رَجُلاً.
(س) وَمِنْهُ «أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِسَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ: انْظُروا إِلَى سَيِّدِنَا هَذَا مَا يَقُولُ» هكذا رَواه الخطَّابي، وقال يُريدُ: انظروا إلى مَنْ سَوَّدْنَاهُ عَلَى قَومه ورَأَّسْناَه عَلَيْهِمْ، كَمَا يَقُولُ السلطانُ الأَعظم:
فُلان أميرُنا وقائدُنا: أَيْ مَنْ أمَّرناه عَلَى النَّاس ورتَّبناه لقَوْد الجُيُوش. وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ «انْظُرُوا إِلَى سَيِّدِكُمْ» أَيْ مُقَدَّمِكم. وَفِي حَدِيثِ عَائِشَةَ «إِنَّ امْرأةً سألتْها عَنِ الخِضاَب فَقَالَتْ: كَانَ سَيِّدِي رسولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يكرَهُ رِيحَه» أرادَت مَعْنى السِّيَادَةِ تَعْظِيمًا لَهُ، أَوْ مِلْك الزَّوجيَّة، مِنْ قوله تعالى وَأَلْفَيا سَيِّدَها لَدَى الْبابِ.
