(TA.) [Hence,] لَهُ صَوْتٌ كَخُوَارِ الثَّوْرِ He has a voice like the bellowing of the bull. (A.) b2: [and hence, (see 10,)] خار عَلَيْهِ (tropical:) He bent, turned, or inclined, towards him. (A.) A2: خار, aor. as above, (S, Msb,) inf. n. خُؤُورٌ, (S, K, [for which Golius, as on these authorities, substitutes خُؤُورَةٌ,]) said of a man, (S,) and of anything, (TA,) He, or it, was, or became, weak, or feeble, (S, Msb, K,) and languid; (S, TA;) as also خَوِرَ, (TA,) aor. ـْ (JK,) inf. n. خَوَرٌ; (S, * K, * TA;) and ↓ خِوِّر, (JK, TA,) inf. n. تَخْوِيرٌ. (K.) خار and خَوِرَ both signify It was soft, or fragile; said of anything, like a reed. (JK.) It is said in a trad. of 'Omar, لَنْ يَخُورَ قَوِىٌّ مَا دَامَ صَاحِبُهَا بَنْزِعُ وَيَنْزُو, meaning A possessor of strength (صَاحِبُ قُوَّةٍ) will not be weak as long as he can pull his bow and leap to his beast. (TA.) In a camel that is drinking, خَوَرٌ denotes, or implies, a quality that is praised; i. e. Patient enduring of thirst and fatigue: and a quality dispraised; i. e. the lacking patience to endure thirst and fatigue. (TA.) b2: Also, said of heat, (S, TA,) and of cold, inf. n. خُؤُورٌ and خُؤُورَةٌ, (JK,) (tropical:) It became faint; it remitted, or abated; (JK, S, TA;) and so خَوِرَ, inf. n. خَوَرٌ; and ↓ خوّر.

(See 10.) b2: And hence,] (assumed tropical:) He bent, turned, or inclined, him, or it. (S, K.)

(A.) 10 استخارها [He endeavoured to make her (namely, a gazelle, or a wild cow,) to utter her cry; or] he uttered a cry in order that she should do the same. (TA.) The sportsman, coming to a place in which he thinks the young one of a gazelle or [wild] cow to be, utters a cry like that of her young one; and the mother, hearing it, if she have a young one, thinks the cry to be that of her young one, and follows the cry. (S, * TA.) b2: Hence, (S, TA,) استخارهُ (tropical:) He endeavoured to make him bend, turn, or incline: (JK, S, A, K, TA:) and he called him to him: and he interrogated him; or desired him to speak; syn. اِسْتَنْطَقَهُ: namely, a man. (JK.) [استخار المَنْزِلَ is explained in the L and K as meaning اِسْتَنْظَفَهُ: to which is added in the TA, كأنّه طلب خيره, with the remark that it should therefore properly be mentioned in art. خير: but an explanation in the sentence immediately preceding, and a verse cited below, evidently show that استنظفه is a mistranscription for اِسْتَنْطَقَهُ, and that خيره should be خَبَرَهُ: so that the meaning is He interrogated the place of abode.] The author of the L cites, as an ex., the saying of El-Kumeyt, وَلَنْ يَسْتَخِيرُ رُسُومَ الدِّيَارِ لِعَوْلَتِهِ ذُو الصِّبَى المُعوِلُ [And he who is affected with youthful amorousness, wailing, will not ask the remains, or traces, of the dwellings to reply to his wailing: but for لِعَوْلَتِهِ I would rather read بِعَوْلَتِهِ; i. e., will not interrogate them with his wailing]. (TA.) b3: استخار الضَّبَّ, (K, TA, [in some copies of the K, erroneously, الضَّبُعَ,]) and اليَرْبُوعَ, (TA,) He placed a piece of wood in the hole of the burrow of the [lizard called] ضبّ, (K, TA,) and of the jerboa, i. e. in the قَاصِعَآء, (TA,) in order that it should come forth from another place, (K, TA,) i. e. the نَافِقَآء, so that he might catch it. (TA.) Lth falsely assigns the act of الاِسْتِخَارَة to the ضبّ and the jerboa.

The horse threw, or threw down, [i. e. threw off,] his rider: (T:) رَمَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ is said إِذَا رَمَيْتَهُ بِيَدِكَ; [i. e., as meaning رَمَيْتُهُ بِيَدِى; which may be rendered I threw him (the man) with my hand; and also I threw, or shot, at him (the man) with my hand;] but when you remove him from his place, you say, عَنِ الفَرَسِ وَغَيْرِهِ ↓ أَرْمَيْتُهُ [I threw him, or threw him down or off, from the horse &c.]: (Msb:) and عَنْ فَرَسِهِ ↓ طَعَنَهُ فَأَرْمَاهُ, meaning [He thrust him, or pierced him, with his spear,] and threw him, or threw him down [or off], from his horse: (El-Fárábee, S, Msb:) and الحِمْلَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ البَعِيرِ ↓ أَرْمَيْتُ I threw down the load from the back of the camel. (T.) وَمَا رَمَيْتَ

إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَمَى, in the Kur [viii. 17], is said by Aboo-Is-hák to be tropical, and to mean (tropical:) And thou didst not cast [in effect, or] so as to attain the point that was attained, [when thou didst cast,] but God [cast in effect, i. e.,] overruled the casting: or, accord. to Abu-l-' Abbás, the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) thou didst not cast fear, or terror, into their hearts, when thou didst cast the pebbles, [but God cast the fear, or terror:] or, accord. to Mbr, (assumed tropical:) thou didst not cast with thy strength, when thou didst cast, but with the strength of God thou didst cast [so that in effect God cast]. (T. [See also another explanation in what follows.]) b2: [رَمَى بِسَلْحِهِ He cast forth his excrement, or ordure, or properly, in a thin state, is a phrase of frequent occurrence.] b3: You say also, رَمَيْتُ بِالسَّهْمِ [I shot the arrow], inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ.

though some make it to mean [رَمَى عَنْهَا or] رَمَى

عَلَيْهَا, making the ب to be instead of عن or على. (Msb.) b4: And رَمَى القَنَصَ, (S, M,) or الصَّيْدَ, [He shot, or shot at, the animal, or animals, of the chase,] inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ, (Msb,) or رَمْىٌ, and none other. (M.)

(ISk, T, S, M.) b5: [Hence,] one says, in cursing a person, رَمَى اللّٰهُ فِى يَدِهِ, and أَنْفِهِ, (assumed tropical:) [May God aim at, and smite, with some bane, or malady, his hand, or arm, and his nose,] and in like manner in relation to other members. (M, K. *) [And رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِكَذَا, sometimes meaning (assumed tropical:) God smote him, or afflicted him, with such a thing: but generally, may God smite him, or afflict him, with such a thing; as in the saying,] رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِدَآءِ الذِّئْبِ (assumed tropical:) [May God smite him, or afflict him, with the disease of the wolf]; a prov., meaning may God destroy him, or cause him to perish; because [it is said that] the wolf has no disease but death: or, as some say, the meaning is, رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِالجُوعِ [may God afflict him with hunger]; because the wolf is always hungry. (Meyd.) and رَمَاهُ بِدَاهِيَةٍ (assumed tropical:) [He (God) sent upon him, or against him,. or smote him with, a calamity: and also] (assumed tropical:) he (a man) made a very sagacious and crafty and politic man to be his assailant. (L in art. حجر. [See also, in that art., رُمِىَ فُلَانٌ بِحَجِرِ الأَرْضِ, and بِحَجَرِهِ.]) [And رَمَاهُ بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He assailed him with such a thing; as, for instance, reproach, and an argument, &c.

And رَمَاهُ alone (assumed tropical:) He accused him, or suspected him.] And رَمَاهُ بِالحَقِّ (assumed tropical:) [He accused him with truth]. (L in art. قرح, in explanation of قَرَحَهُ بِالحَقِّ.)

[of which other explanations have been given above]; because, when God aids a person against his enemy, He aims at, and smites, (يَرْمِى,) that enemy. (M, TA.) [In like manner, also, فُلَانٌ يَرْمِى مِنْ وَرَآءِ فُلَانٍ means (assumed tropical:) Such a one defends such a one.] b7: رُمِيتُ بِكَذَا (tropical:) I had such a thing offered, or presented, to me, the meeting with it being appointed, or prepared; [I had it as it were thrown to me, or thrown in my way; as though I were thrown at therewith;] like نُبِذْتُ بِهِ.

And Az says, (TA,) I heard an Arab of the desert say to another, أَيْنَ تَرْمِى, meaning (assumed tropical:) Whither dost thou direct thy course. (T, TA.)

(TA in art. جنز.) b12: [رَمَى also app. means (assumed tropical:) He (a governor) imposed an impost upon his subjects: see رَمِيَّةٌ.]

b13: And رَمَى, aor. ـْ means also (assumed tropical:) He misconjectured; thought wrongly; or formed a wrong opinion: (IAar, T:) [and app. he threw out a conjecture: or he spoke conjecturally; for Az adds,] it is like the phrase رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ [or رَجَمَ بِالغَيْبِ or قَالَ رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ]. (T.) b14: رَمَى السَّحَابُ: see 6. b15: رَمَى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ: see 4.

A2: رَمُوَ is a verb of the same kind as قَضُوَ and هَيُؤَ, [invariable as to person, time, and mood,] and means Excel-lent [or how excellent] is he in his throwing, or shooting! (IJ, TA voce هَيُؤَ, q. v. [See also بَطُؤَ, voce بُطْآنَ.]) 3 رَامَيْتُهُ, (S, K,) and رَامَيْتُهُ بِالسِّهَامِ, (TA,) inf. n. مُرَامَاةٌ and رِمَآءٌ (T, S, K) and ↓ تَرْمَآءٌ, (K,) or this last is like the two preceding ns. [in meaning, but is a quasi-inf. n.], (T,) [I threw, or shot, (generally the latter,) and I shot arrows, with him, or at him; (see 6;) mostly meaning in competition, or contention; i. e. I competed, or contended, with him, in throwing, or shooting, and in shooting arrows: and رَامَيْتُهُ alone often means رَامَيْتُهُ بِالحِجَارَةِ, or بِالسِّهَامِ; whence it is said that] مُرَامَاةٌ signifies the shooting arrows, and throwing stones, with any one. (KL.) It is said in a prove., respecting an affair in which one is forward before doing it, قَبْلَ الرِّمَآءِ تُمْلَأُ الكَنَائِنُ [Before shooting arrows with another, or doing so in competition or contention, the quivers are to be filled]. (A 'Obeyd, T.) 4 أَرْمَىَ see 1, first sentence, in seven places: b2: and see also 6.

A2: ارمى, (M, Mgh,) inf. n. إِرْمَآءٌ, (Mgh,) also signifies It (a thing, Mgh) exceeded. (M, Mgh.) You say, ارمى عَلَيْهِ It (anything) exceeded it, namely, another thing. (M.) Hátim-Teiyi says, وَأَسْمَرَ خَطِّيًّا كَأَنَّ كُعُوبَهُ نَوَى القَسْبِ قَدْ أَرْمَى ذِرَاعًا عَلَى العَشْرِ [And a tawny spear of El-Khatt, as though its knots, or joints, were hard date-stones; one that exceeded a cubit over the ten]: (T, S:) i. e., قَدْ زَادَ عَلَيْهَا. (T.) And hence, (T,) you say, ارمى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ, i. e. He exceeded [the age of fifty]; (Az, A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K;) [like اربى;] as also ↓ رَمَى; (Az, T, S, M, K;) [for] رَمْىٌ signifies the exceeding in age: and one says also أَرْمَأَ and رَمَأَ in the same sense. (IAar, T.) and ارمى فُلَانٌ signifies the same as أَرْبَى [meaning Such a one took usury or the like]. (S.) See also رَمَآءٌ, below. You say also, سَابَّهُ فَأَرْمَى عَلَيْهِ, i. e. [He reciprocated reviling, or vilifying, with him, and] he exceeded him. (S.) 5 ترمّى He shot, or cast, at the butts, and at the trunks of trees. (ISk, T, S, M.) 6 تَرَامَيْنَا and ↓ اِرْتَمَيْنَا [We cast, or shot, (generally the latter,) one with another, or one at another; mostly meaning in competition, or contention; i. e. we competed, or contended, together in throwing, or shooting]: (S, K:) and ترامى القَوْمُ بِالسِّهَامِ and ↓ ارتموا The people, or party, shot arrows, [one with another, or] one at another. (T.) b2: [Hence,] ترامت بِهِ البِلَادُ (tropical:) The countries cast him forth, or expelled him; (M, K, TA;) [as though they bandied him, one to another;] as also ↓ ارتمت, (so in a copy of the M, [which I think correct,]) or ↓ ارمت. (K.) b3: And ترامى السَّحَابُ (assumed tropical:) The clouds became drawn, or joined, together, (M, K, TA,) [as though thrown, one at another,] and heaped, or piled, up; (TA;) as also ↓ رَمَى.

الظَّفَرِ; or إِلَى الخِذْلَانِ; i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His affair, or case,] came eventually [to the attainment of what was desired, or sought; or to abandonment by God]. (T, K, TA.) Hence, (TA,) it is said in a trad., of Zeyd Ibn-Háritheh, سُبِىَ فِى الجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَتَرَامَى الأَمْرُ أَنْ صَارَلِخَدِيجَةَ, (T, TA,) i. e.

رَمْيَةٌ A single throw, or cast, or fling: and a single shot: (Mgh, Msb, TA:) pl. رَمَيَاتٌ.

[applied to the case of an unexpected success obtained by an inexperienced person;] meaning many a [hitting] shot, or scarce any [hitting] shot, originates from a shooter that [usually] misses. (Meyd) رَمَآءٌ, (S, IAth, K, in a copy of the T and in a copy of the S without any vowel-sign,) with fet-h and medd, (IAth, and so in a copy of the S, in which it is added that it is said by Ks to be with medd,) like سَمَآءٌ; (K;) or ↓ رِمَآءٌ; (Mgh, and so in a copy of the T;) or ↓ رِمًا, said by Lh to be formed by substitution [of م for ب, as is shown by what follows]; (M;) An excess, or an addition; i. e., (A 'Obeyd, T, Mgh,) i. q. رِبًا, (A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K,) or رِبًوا, (Mgh, and thus written in some copies of the S and K, or in most of the copies of the K, [meaning usury, and the like,]) or an excess, or addition, over what is lawful. (T, IAth.) Hence the trad. of 'Omar, لَا تَبِيعُوا, (A 'Obeyd, T,) or he said لَا تَشْتَرُوا, (S,) الذَّهَبَ بِالفِضَّةِ إِلَّا يَدًا بِيَدٍ هَا وَهَا, [or هَأْ وَهَأْ, (see art. هوأ,)] or هَآء وَهَآء, [i. e. هَآءَ وَهَآءَ,] (accord. to different copies of the T and S,) adding, (T, S,) إِنِّى أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمُ الرمآءَ; (T, S, Mgh;) [i. e.

(T, Mgh.) رِمَآءٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

رَمِىٌّ, applied to the male of the goat-kind, or mountain-goat, or of the gazelle, [and any male animal of the chase,] and likewise, without ة, to the female, i. q. ↓ مَرْمِىٌّ [i. e. Thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot]: but when they do not distinguish a male from a female, the word applied to the male and to the female is [↓ رَمِيَّةٌ,] with ة [added لِلنَّقْلِ, i. e. to transfer it from the category of epithets to that of substantives]: or, accord. to Lh, رَمِىٌّ and ↓ رَمِيَّةٌ are both applied, as epithets, to the female; but the former is the more approved: the pl. of the former [and of the latter also] is رَمَايَا. (M, TA.) A2: Also, (M,) accord. to As, i. q. سَقِىٌّ, i. e., (T, S,) A cloud of which the rain-drops are large, and vehement in their fall, (T, S, M, K, *) of the clouds of the hot season and of the autumn: (S:) or, (M, K,) accord. to Lth, (T,) small portions of clouds, (T, M, K,) of the [apparent] size of the hand, or somewhat larger; but the approved explanation is that given by As: (T:) and ↓ رَمْىٌ is a dial. var. thereof: (TA:) the pl. is أَرْمِيَةٌ, (T, S, M, K,) like as that of سَقِىٌّ is أَسْقِيَةٌ, (S,) and أَرْمآءٌ, (Lth, T, M, K,) [each, properly, a pl. of pauc.,] and رَمَايَا.

There was between them a reciprocal throwing of stones, (T, TA,) [or shooting of arrows or the like, or a great, or vehement, throwing, &c.,] then there intervened between them [an intervention, or a vehement intervention, or] a person, or persons, who withheld them, one from another, (T,) or then they withheld themselves, [or withheld themselves much,] one from another. (TA.) رَامٍ act. part. n. of 1; (Lth, T, TA;) Throwing, &c.: (TA:) [pl. رُمَاةٌ.] b2: [Hence, الرَّامِى a name of The constellation Sagittarius; the ninth of the signs of the zodiac: thus called in the present day; but more commonly, القَوْسُ.] b3: [Hence likewise,] رَامٍ also signifies (assumed tropical:) [One who assails with reproach, &c.:] (assumed tropical:) one who reproaches, or upbraids; or who gives an ill name: (KL:) [(assumed tropical:) one who accuses, or suspects, another: see مَرْمِىٌّ.]

[And the arrows of the slave, most of them are those that are small and weak]: a prov., said to mean that the free man purchases arrows at a high price, buying the broad and long iron head, because he is a man of war and of the chase; but the slave is only a pastor, and therefore is content with what are termed مَرَامٍ, because they are cheaper if he buy them; and if he ask for them as a gift, no one gives him aught but a مِرْمَاة. (M.) [See also the last sentence of this paragraph.] b2: It is also used, tropically, as meaning (tropical:) A مَنْجَنِيق [or kind of engine for casting stones at the enemy; app. such as was called by the Romans “ onager,” or the like thereof]: because, like the مِرْمَاْة before mentioned, it is an instrument for casting, or shooting.

إِلَى مِرْمَاتَيْنِ لَأَجَابَ وَهُوَ لَا يُجِيبُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ; (T, S; related also, with some variations, in the M and Mgh;) in which it is said to be the dual of مِرْمَاةٌ in the former of these two senses; [i. e. If any one of you were invited to partake of two hoofs of a sheep or goat, he would obey the invitation, but he will not obey the invitation to prayer;] (S, Mgh;) or, accord. to A 'Obeyd, it is here the dual of this word in the latter of the same two senses: (T, S:) accord. to IAar, (T, TA,) or Aboo-Sa'eed, it here means the kind of arrow called مِرْمَاةٌ: (T, Mgh, TA:) but in another, and similar, trad., مرماتين is followed by أَوْعَرْقٍ [i. e. “ or a bone with some meat remaining upon it ”].

سَمَرْقَنْدُ:
بفتح أوّله وثانيه، ويقال لها بالعربيّة سمران: بلد معروف مشهور، قيل: إنّه من أبنية ذي القرنين بما وراء النهر، وهو قصبة الصّغد مبنيّة
على جنوبي وادي الصغد مرتفعة عليه، قال أبو عون:
سمرقند في الإقليم الرابع، طولها تسع وثمانون درجة ونصف، وعرضها ست وثلاثون درجة ونصف، وقال الأزهري: بناها شمر أبو كرب فسميت شمر كنت فأعربت فقيل سمرقند، هكذا تلفظ به العرب في كلامها وأشعارها، وقال يزيد بن مفرّغ يمدح سعيد بن عثمان وكان قد فتحها:
لهفي على الأمر الذي ... كانت عواقبه النّدامه
تركي سعيدا ذا النّدى، ... والبيت ترفعه الدّعامه
فتحت سمرقند له، ... وبنى بعرصتها خيامه
وتبعت عبد بني علا ... ج، تلك أشراط القيامه
وبالبطيحة من أرض كسكر قرية تسمى سمرقند أيضا، ذكره المفجّع في كتاب المنقذ من الإيمان في أخبار ملوك اليمن قال: لما مات ناشر ينعم الملك قام بالملك من بعده شمر بن افريقيس بن أبرهة فجمع جنوده وسار في خمسمائة ألف رجل حتى ورد العراق فأعطاه يشتاسف الطاعة وعلم أن لا طاقة له به لكثرة جنوده وشدّة صولته، فسار من العراق لا يصدّه صادّ إلى بلاد الصين فلمّا صار بالصّغد اجتمع أهل تلك البلاد وتحصّنوا منه بمدينة سمرقند فأحاط بمن فيها من كلّ وجه حتى استنزلهم بغير أمان فقتل منهم مقتلة عظيمة وأمر بالمدينة فهدمت فسميت شمركند، أي شمر هدمها، فعرّبتها العرب فقالت سمرقند، وقد ذكر ذلك دعبل الخزاعي في قصيدته التي يفتخر فيها ويردّ بها على الكميت ويذكر التبابعة:
وهم كتبوا الكتاب بباب مرو، ... وباب الصّين كانوا الكاتبينا
وهم سمّوا قديما سمرقندا، ... وهم غرسوا هناك التّبّتينا
فسار شمر وهو يريد الصين فمات هو وأصحابه عطشا ولم يرجع منهم مخبّر، فبقيت سمرقند خرابا إلى أن ملك تبّع الأقرن بن أبي مالك بن ناشر ينعم فلم تكن له همّة إلّا الطلب بثأر جدّه شمر الذي هلك بأرض الصين فتجهّز واستعدّ وسار في جنوده نحو العراق فخرج إليه بهمن بن إسفنديار وأعطاه الطاعة وحمل إليه الخراج حتى وصل إلى سمرقند فوجدها خرابا، فأمر بعمارتها وأقام عليها حتى ردّها إلى أفضل ما كانت عليه، وسار حتى أتى بلادا واسعة فبنى التّبّت كما ذكرنا، ثمّ قصد الصين فقتل وسبى وأحرق وعاد إلى اليمن في قصة طويلة، وقيل: إن سمرقند من بناء الإسكندر، واستدارة حائطها اثنا عشر فرسخا، وفيها بساتين ومزارع وأرحاء، ولها اثنا عشر بابا، من الباب إلى الباب فرسخ، وعلى أعلى السور آزاج وأبرجة للحرب، والأبواب الاثنا عشر من حديد، وبين كلّ بابين منزل للنوّاب، فإذا جزت المزارع صرت إلى الربض وفيه أبنية وأسواق، وفي ربضها من المزارع عشرة آلاف جريب، ولهذه المدينة، أعني الداخلة، أربعة أبواب، وساحتها ألفان وخمسمائة جريب، وفيها المسجد الجامع والقهندز وفيه مسكن السلطان، وفي هذه المدينة الداخلة نهر يجري في رصاص، وهو نهر قد بني عليه مسنّاة عالية من حجر يجري عليه الماء إلى أن يدخل المدينة من باب كسّ، ووجه هذا النهر رصاص كلّه، وقد عمل في خندق المدينة مسنّاة وأجري عليها، وهو نهر يجري في وسط السوق بموضع يعرف بباب الطاق،
وكان أعمر موضع بسمرقند، وعلى حافات هذا النهر غلّات موقوفة على من بات في هذا النهر وحفظة من المجوس عليهم حفظ هذا النهر شتاء وصيفا مستفرض ذلك عليهم، وفي المدينة مياه من هذا النهر عليها بساتين، وليس من سكة ولا دار إلّا وبها ماء جار إلّا القليل، وقلّما تخلو دار من بستان حتى إنّك إذا صعدت قهندزها لا ترى أبنية المدينة لاستتارها عنك بالبساتين والأشجار، فأمّا داخل سوق المدينة الكبيرة ففيه أودية وأنهار وعيون وجبال، وعلى القهندز باب حديد من داخله باب آخر حديد، ولما ولي سعيد بن عثمان خراسان في سنة 55 من جهة معاوية عبر النهر ونزل على سمرقند محاصرا لها وحلف لا يبرح حتى يدخل المدينة ويرمي القهندز بحجر أو يعطوه رهنا من أولاد عظمائهم، فدخل المدينة ورمى القهندز بحجر فثبت فيه فتطيّر أهلها بذلك وقالوا:
ثبت فيها ملك العرب، وأخذ رهانهم وانصرف، فلمّا كانت سنة 87 عبر قتيبة بن مسلم النهر وغزا بخارى والشاش ونزل على سمرقند، وهي غزوته الأولى، ثمّ غزا ما وراء النهر عدّة غزوات في سنين سبع وصالح أهلها على أن له ما في بيوت النيران وحلية الأصنام، فأخرجت إليه الأصنام فسلب حليها وأمر بتحريقها، فقال سدنتها: إن فيها أصناما من أحرقها هلك! فقال قتيبة: أنا أحرقها بيدي، وأخذ شعلة نار وأضرمها فاضطرمت فوجد بقايا ما كان فيها من مسامير الذهب خمسين ألف مثقال، وبسمرقند عدّة مدن مذكورة في مواضعها، منها: كرمانية ودبوسية وأشروسنة والشاش ونخشب وبناكث، وقالوا: ليس في الأرض مدينة أنزه ولا أطيب ولا أحسن مستشرفا من سمرقند، وقد شبهها حضين بن المنذر الرقاشي فقال:
كأنّها السماء للخضرة وقصورها الكواكب للإشراق ونهرها المجرّة للاعتراض وسورها الشمس للإطباق، ووجد بخط بعض ظرفاء العراق مكتوبا على حائط سمرقند:
وليس اختياري سمرقند محلّة ... ودار مقام لاختيار ولا رضا
ولكنّ قلبي حلّ فيها فعاقني ... وأقعدني بالصغر عن فسحة الفضا
وإنّي لممّن يرقب الدّهر راجيا ... ليوم سرور غير مغرى بما مضى
وقال أحمد بن واضح في صفة سمرقند:
علت سمرقند أن يقال لها ... زين خراسان جنّة الكور
أليس أبراجها معلّقة ... بحيث لا تستبين للنّظر
ودون أبراجها خنادقها ... عميقة ما ترام من ثغر
كأنّها وهي وسط حائطها ... محفوفة بالظّلال والشّجر
بدر وأنهارها المجرّة وال ... آطام مثل الكواكب الزّهر
وقال البستي:
للنّاس في أخراهم جنّة، ... وجنّة الدنيا سمرقند
يا من يسوّي أرض بلخ بها، ... هل يستوي الحنظل والقند؟
قال الأصمعي: مكتوب على باب سمرقند بالحميرية:
بين هذه المدينة وبين صنعاء ألف فرسخ، وبين بغداد وبين إفريقية ألف فرسخ، وبين سجستان وبين البحر مائتا فرسخ، ومن سمرقند إلى زامين سبعة عشر
فرسخا، وقال الشيخ أبو سعد عبد الكريم بن محمد بن منصور السمعاني: أخبرنا أبو الفضل محمد بن عبد الله ابن المظفّر الكسّي بسمرقند أنبأنا أبو الحسن عليّ بن عثمان بن إسماعيل الخرّاط إملاء أنبأنا عبد الجبار بن أحمد الخطيب أنبأنا أبو بكر محمد بن عبد الله الخطيب أنبأنا محمد بن عبد الله بن عليّ السائح الباهلي أنبأنا الزاهد أبو يحيى أحمد بن الفضل أنبأنا مسعود بن كامل أبو سعيد السكّاك حدثنا جابر بن معاذ الأزدي أنبأنا أبو مقاتل حفص بن مسلم الفزاري أنبأنا برد بن سنان عن أنس بن مالك، رضي الله عنه، أنّه ذكر مدينة خلف نهر جيحون تدعى سمرقند ثمّ قال: لا تقولوا سمرقند ولكن قولوا المدينة المحفوظة، فقال أناس:
يا أبا حمزة ما حفظها؟ فقال: أخبرني حبيبي رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، أن مدينة بخراسان خلف النهر تدعى المحفوظة، لها أبواب على كلّ باب منها خمسة آلاف ملك يحفظونها يسبّحون ويهلّلون، وفوق المدينة خمسة آلاف ملك يبسطون أجنحتهم على أن يحفظوا أهلها، ومن فوقهم ملك له ألف رأس وألف فم وألف لسان ينادي يا دائم يا دائم يا الله يا صمد احفظ هذه المدينة، وخلف المدينة روضة من رياض الجنة، وخارج المدينة ماء حلو عذب من شرب منه شرب من ماء الجنّة ومن اغتسل فيه خرج من ذنوبه كيوم ولدته أمّه، وخارج المدينة على ثلاثة فراسخ ملائكة يطوفون يحرسون رساتيقها ويدعون الله بالذكر لهم، وخلف هؤلاء الملائكة واد فيه حيّات وحيّة تخرج على صفة الآدميّين تنادي يا رحمن الدنيا ورحيم الآخرة ارحم هذه المدينة المحفوظة، ومن تعبّد فيها ليلة تقبّل الله منه عبادة سبعين سنة، ومن صام فيها يوما فكأنّما صام الدهر، ومن أطعم فيها مسكينا لا يدخل منزله فقر أبدا، ومن مات في هذه المدينة فكأنّما مات في السماء السابعة ويحشر يوم القيامة مع الملائكة في الجنة، وزاد حذيفة بن اليمان في رواية: ومن خلفها قرية يقال لها قطوان يبعث منها سبعون ألف شهيد يشفع كلّ شهيد منهم في سبعين من أهل بيته، وقال حذيفة: وددت أن يوافقني هذا الزمان وكان أحبّ إليّ من أن أوافق ليلة القدر، وهذا الحديث في كتاب الأفانين للسمعاني، وينسب إلى سمرقند جماعة كثيرة، منهم: محمد بن عدي بن الفضل أبو صالح السمرقندي نزيل مصر، سمع بدمشق أبا الحسين الميداني، وبمصر أبا مسلم الكاتب وأبا الحسن عليّ بن محمد بن إسحاق الحلبي وأبا الحسين أحمد بن محمد الأزهر التنيسي المعروف بابن السمناوي ومحمد ابن سراقة العامري وأحمد بن محمد الجمّازي وأبا القاسم الميمون بن حمزة الحسيني وأبا الحسن محمد بن أحمد بن العباس الإخميمي وأبا الحسن علي بن محمد ابن سنان، روى عنه أبو الربيع سليمان بن داود بن أبي حفص الجبلي وأبو عبد الله بن الخطّاب وسهل بن بشر وأبو الحسن عليّ بن أحمد بن ثابت العثماني الديباجي وأبو محمد هيّاج بن عبيد الحطّيني، ومات سنة 444 وأحمد بن عمر بن الأشعث أبو بكر السمرقندي، سكن دمشق مدة وكان يكتب بها المصاحف ويقرأ ويقرئ القرآن، وسمع بدمشق أبا علي بن أبي نصر وأبا عثمان إسماعيل بن عبد الرحمن الصابوني، روى عنه أبو الفضل كمّاد بن ناصر بن نصر المراغي الحدّادي، حدث عنه ابنه أبو القاسم، قال ابن عساكر:
سمعت الحسن بن قيس يذكر أن أبا بكر السمرقندي كان يكتب المصاحف من حفظه وكان لجماعة من أهل دمشق فيه رأي حسن فسمعت الحسن بن قيس يذكر أنّه خرج مع جماعة إلى ظاهر البلد في فرجة فقدّموه يصلي بهم وكان مزّاحا، فلمّا سجد بهم تركهم في الصلاة وصعد إلى شجرة، فلمّا طال عليهم انتظاره رفعوا رؤوسهم فلم يجدوه فإذا هو في الشجرة يصيح صياح السنانير فسقط من أعينهم، فخرج إلى بغداد وترك أولاده بدمشق واتصل ببغداد بعفيف الخادم القائمي فكان يكرمه وأنزله في موضع من داره، فكان إذا جاءه الفرّاش بالطعام يذكر أولاده بدمشق فيبكي، فحكى الفرّاش ذلك لعفيف الخادم فقال:
