(Msb.) [And hence, (assumed tropical:) It wasted away; became consumed, destroyed, exhausted, spent, or expended.] b2: ذَهَبَ إِلَيْهِ He went, repaired, betook himself, or had recourse, to him, or it. (TA.) And they say also, ذَهَبَ الشَّأْمَ [He went to Syria]; making the verb trans. without a particle; for although الشأم is here a special adv. n., they liken it to a vague locality. (TA.) b3: ذَهَبَ عَنْهُ He, or it, went from, quitted, relinquished, or left, him, or it. (TA.) b4: ذَهَبَ فِىالأَرْضِ, (A, Msb,) inf. n. ذَهَابٌ and ذُهُوبٌ and مَذْهَبٌ, He went away [into the country, or in the land]: (Msb:) [but it often means (assumed tropical:) he went into the open country, or out of doors, to satisfy a want of nature: or simply] (tropical:) he voided his excrement, or ordure.

(MF, TA.) [Hence,] one says, أَيْنَ يُذْهَبُ بِكَ, which may mean (assumed tropical:) Where, or whither, wilt thou be taken away, and what will be done with thee and made to come to pass with thee, if this be thine intellect? or, accord. to Mtr, it is a saying of the people of Baghdád, addressed to him whom they charge with foolish judgment or opinion, as meaning أَيْنَ يُذْهَبُ بِعَقْلِكَ (assumed tropical:) [Where, or whither, is thine intellect taken away?].

And ذَهَبَ بِلَفْظٍ إِلَىلَفْظٍ آخَرَ (assumed tropical:) He regarded a word, or an expression, in his manner of using it, as equivalent to another word, or expression; as, for instance, when one makes a fem. noun masc. because it is syn. with a noun that is masc., or makes a verb trans. by means of a certain perticle because it is syn. with a verb that is trans. by means of that same particle: and also (assumed tropical:) he regarded a word, or an expression, as etymologically relating, or traceable, to another word, or expression. And ذَهَبَ بِهِ إِلَى مَعْنَى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) He regarded it, or used it, (i. e. a word, or an expression,) as relating to such a meaning, or as meaning such a thing.] b8: ذَهَبَ فِى طَلَبِ الشَّىْءِ كُلَّ مَذْهَبٍ (assumed tropical:) [He tried every way, or did his utmost, in seeking the thing].

(Msb.) It is said of a man: and you say also, لَقَطَ الطَّائِرُ الحَبَّ [The bird picked up from the ground the grains]. (Msb.) The Arabs say to a calumniator, ↓ إِنَّ عِنْدَكَ دِيكًا يَلْتَقِطُ الحَصَى [Verily thou hast a cock that picks up pebbles]. (TA.) And it is said in a proverb, أَصَيْدَ القُنْفُذِ أَمْ لَقْطَهُ [Is it by the hunting of the hedgehog or the picking up thereof from the ground?] applied to a poor man who becomes rich suddenly. (TA.) [In Freytag's Arab. Prov. (i. 726,) أَصَيْدُ القُنْفُذِ أَمْ لُقَطَةٌ: and there asserted to be said of him who finds a thing which he had not sought: or, accord. to Sharafed-Deen, of a thing of the nature of which we may be uncertain.] You say also, لَقَطْتُ العِلْمِ مِنَ الكُتُبِ (assumed tropical:) [I picked up science, or knowledge, from books;] I acquired science, or knowledge, from this and that book. (Msb.) And لَقَطْتُ

أَصَابِعَهُ (assumed tropical:) I took off his fingers, by cutting, without [the main part of] the hand. (Msb.) 3 مُلَاقَطَةٌ A horse's lifting the legs all together in the pace called تَقْرِيب: (AO, K: *) or, in the pace called خَبَب, of a horse, it is similar to مُنَاقَلَةٌ. (JK.) A2: Also, (K,) and ↓ لِقَاطٌ, (TA,) The being over against, or facing. (K, TA.) You say, دَارُهُ بِلِقَاطِ دَارِى His house is over against, or faces, my house. (Lh, K.) and لَقِيتُهُ لِقَاطاً I met him face to face. (IAar.) 5 تلقّط فُلَانٌ التَّمْرَ, or الثَّمَرَ, (S, accord. to different copies, and K, *) Such a one, [picked up, or] took up from the ground, from this and that place, the dates, or the fruits. (S, K. *) 8 التقطهُ: see 1, in two places. b2: Also, He collected it. (Msb.) b3: And (tropical:) He stumbled upon it, or lighted on it, (K, TA,) unexpectedly, (TA,) without seeking; (K, TA;) such a thing, for instance, as a well, and herbage. (TA.) Yousay also, وَرَدْتُ الشَّىْءَ الْتِقَاطًا (tropical:) I came upon the thing unexpectedly, or unawares; (S, TA:) and لَقِيتُهُ الْتِقَاطًا (tropical:) I met him unexpectedly: (TA:) التقاطا in this sense being one of those inf. ns. which are used as denotatives of state. (Sb, TA.) لَقَطٌ What is picked up, or taken from the ground, (S, Msb, K,) of a thing; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ لُقْطَةٌ and ↓ لُقَطَةٌ and ↓ لُقَاطَةٌ: (K:) or ↓ this last signifies what one picks up, of lost property; as also ↓ لُقَاطٌ, with the ة elided; and ↓ لُقَطَةٌ like رُطَبَةٌ: (Msb:) or ↓ لُقَاطَةٌ signifies also what falls, or drops, of a thing that is worthless, (K, TA,) or paltry, and is taken by any one who chooses to take it: (TA:) and the same, what is picked up from the stumps of the branches of palm-trees, [app. meaning dates picked up thence,] after the cutting off of the dates: (TA:) IAth says, that ↓ لُقَطَةٌ, with damm to the ل and fet-h to the ق, is often mentioned in trads., and signifies property which is found: (TA:) Az says, that لُقَطَةٌ, with fet-h to the ق, signifies a thing which one finds dropped, or thrown down, and takes; (Mgh, Msb;) and that all the lexicologists and skilful grammarians say so; (Msb;) and in like manner, A 'Obeyd, on the authority of As and of El-Ahmar; (TA;) only Lth, of all whom he has heard, saying that it is ↓ لُقْطَةٌ, with sukoon; (Mgh, Msb;) and Fr: (TA:) IF and ElFárábee and others mention only ↓ لُقَطَةٌ; and some reckon the pronunciation with sukoon as an error of the vulgar; and the reason is this; that the original word is ↓ لُقَاطَةٌ, which, in consequence of its being in frequent use, as applied to what is picked up in plundering, is contracted, sometimes, by the elision of the ة, into ↓ لُقَاطٌ, and sometimes, by the elision of the ا into ↓ لُقَطَةٌ; and if they made the ق quiescent, there would be two alterations in the word, and such double alteration does not exist in chaste language: (Msb:) IB, however, says that ↓ لُقْطَةٌ is correct; and he approves it; because فُعْلَةٌ has the sense of a pass. part. n., as in the instance of ضُحْكَةٌ; and فُعَلَةٌ has the sense of an act. part. n., as in the instance of ضُحَكَةٌ; and that it occurs in poetry: and IAth observes, that some say thus; but that ↓ لُقَطَةٌ is more common and more correct. (TA.) Anything that is scattered, of ears of corn, or of fruit; n. un. with ة: (TA:) what is picked up, or taken from the ground, (S, Msb, K,) by men, (S,) of ears of corn; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ لُقَاطٌ, with damm: (S:) and ↓ لَقَاطٌ, like سَحَابٌ, the ears of corn which the reaping-hooks miss, (AHn, K,) and which men pick up. (AHn.) What is picked up from a mine: (Msb:) pieces of gold found in a mine; (K;) or such are termed لَقَطُ مَعْدِنٍ: (S:) or لَقَطٌ signifies pieces of gold, or of silver, like what are termed شَذْر, and larger, in mines; which are the best thereof: and one says ذَهَبٌ لَقَطٌ: (Lth:) and ↓ مُلْتَقَطٌ, also, signifies gold found in a mine. (TA.) You say also, فِى هٰذَا المَكَانِ لَقَطٌ مِنَ المَرْتَعِ In this place is some small quantity of pasturage. (S.) And فِى الأَرْضِ لَقَطٌ لِلْمَالِ In the land is pasturage not much in quantity for the beasts. (TA.) The pl. is أَلْقَاطٌ. (TA.) لُقْطَةٌ: see لَقَطٌ, throughout the first sentence. b2: Accord. to Lth, it [also] signifies A man who repeatedly and perseveringly seeks after things to be picked up, and picks them up: (TA:) and some say, that ↓ لُقَطَةٌ signifies one who picks up: but the more common and correct signification of this latter is “ property which is found,” as before stated. (IAth.) لُقَطَةٌ: see لَقَطٌ, throughout the first sentence: — and see لُقْطَةٌ.

لَقَاطٌ: see لَقَطٌ, in the latter part of the paragraph.

لُقَاطٌ: see لَقَطٌ, in three places.

لِقَاطٌ: see 3. b2: [The act of picking up the ears of corn which the reaping-hooks miss;] the act denoted in the explanation of لَقَاطٌ. (JK, K, TA.) You say, هُوَ يَتَعَيَّشُ بِالِلّقَاطِ عَنِ اللَّقَاطِ [He constrains himself to obtain the means of life, or he obtains what is barely sufficient for his sustenance, by picking up, or gleaning, from the ears of corn which the reaping-hooks have missed]. (TK: but there given without any syll. signs.) [If the reading intended be بِاللَّقَاطِ عَنِ اللِّقَاطِ, the meaning of لِقَاطٌ is The act of missing ears of corn with the reapinghook; as is implied in the K, where لَقَاطٌ is imperfectly explained: but this I think improbable.] لَقَاطٌ and لِقَاطٌ are [respectively] like حَصَادٌ [as signifying what is “ reaped ”] and حِصَادٌ [as signifying the act of “ reaping ”]. (TA.) لَقِيطٌ i. q. ↓ مَلْقُوطٌ; (Msb, K;) i. e. A thing that is picked up, taken up, raised, (Mgh,) or taken, (Msb, K,) from the ground, (Mgh, K,) or from a place where it was not thought to be. (Msb.) b2: And, generally, (Mgh,) A foundling; or child that is cast out, (Az, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) and found by a man, (Az, TA,) or picked up; (S;) or because it is cast out with the object of its being picked up: (Mgh:) not what Lth asserts it to be; i. e. a child that is cast out in the roads, and there found, whose father and mother are unknown: of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ: (Az, TA:) and ↓ مَلْقُوطٌ signifies the same: (K:) [pl. of the former, لُقَطَآءُ.] b3: Also, A well upon which one lights unexpectedly, or unawares, (Lth, K,) without seeking it. (Lth.) لُقَاطَةٌ: see لَقَطٌ, first sentence, in four places.

لَقِيطَةٌ applied to a man, and to a woman, (tropical:) Low, ignoble, base, vile, or mean; (K, TA;) as also ↓ لَاقِطَةٌ applied to a man; (TA;) and so ↓ سَاقِطٌ مَاقِطٌ لَاقِطٌ, used together. (L in art. سقط.) It occurs in this sense preceded by سَقِيطَةٌ; but you say سَقِيطٌ when alone. (TA.) لَقَّاطٌ: see لَاقِطٌ.

لَقَّاطَةٌ: see لَاقِطٌ.

لَاقِطٌ and in an intensive sense ↓ لَقَّاطٌ and [in a doubly intensive sense] ↓ لَقَّاطَةٌ A man [who picks up things from the ground; and the second, who does so much, or often; and the third, who does so very much, or very often: or] who takes things from places where they were not thought to be: (Msb:) and all signify a man who picks up the ears of corn [that fall] when the crop is reaped, and [the fruit that falls] when the ripe dates are cut from the raceme: (TA:) and the first and second, a bird that picks up grains. (Msb.) b2: ↓ لِكُلِّ سَاقِطَةٍ لَاقِطَةٌ For every saying that falls from one, there is a person who will take it up: (Msb in art. سقط:) or for every word that falls from the mouth of the speaker, there is a person who will hear it and pick it up and publish it: (S, * K:) a proverb, (TA,) relating to the guarding of the tongue: (K:) the ة in لاقطة is to give intensiveness to the meaning, (Msb, in art. سقط,) or for the purpose of assimilation: (Msb in that art., and in the present one:) if you say لِكُلِّ ضَائِعٍ, or the like, you say لَاقِطٌ. (Msb in the present art.) b3: الحَصَى ↓ لَاقِطَةٌ The قَانِصَة [meaning stomach, &c.,] of a bird, (S, K,) in which pebbles become collected: (S:) or the omasum (قِبّة) of a sheep or goat [and the corresponding ventricle of a camel, as is shown in the TA in art. حصل; also called لَقَّاطَةُ الحَصَى (see قُرَيْحَآءُ);] because it conveys thereinto whatever it eats of earth and pebbles; (A, TA;) as also اللَّاقِطَةٌ [alone]. (TA.) A2: لَاقِطٌ also signifies (tropical:) Any freedman, or emancipated slave: (K:) or the slave of a freedman. (S in art. مقط, and TA in art. سقط:) the slave of the لاقط is called مَاقِطٌ; and the slave of the ماقط is called سَاقِطٌ: and hence the saying, هُوَ سَاقِطُ بْنُ مَاقِطِ بْنِ لَاقِطٍ. (K, TA [but in the CK, for هُوَ we find بَنُو, with the necessary difference in what follows it.]) See art. سقط. b2: See also لَقِيطَةٌ: and see أَلْقَاطٌ, which may be a pl. of لَاقِطٌ; as in لُقَّاطٌ, which is explained with أَلْقَاطٌ.

لَاقِطَةٌ: see لَاقِطٌ, in two places: A2: and see also لَقِيطَةٌ.

أَلْقَاطٌ pl. of لَقَطٌ, q. v. b2: (assumed tropical:) A small number of men, separated, or scattered, or dispersed. (S.) b3: [Also, perhaps as pl. of لَاقِطٌ, like as أَصْحَابٌ is pl. of صَاحِبٌ,] (tropical:) The refuse, or lowest, or basest, or meanest sort, of mankind, or of people; (K, * TA;) as also ↓ لُقَّاطٌ [which is doubtless a pl. of لَاقِطٌ, like as سُقَّاطٍ is of سَاقِطٌ, and مُقَّاطٌ of مَاقِطٌ]. (IAar, in TA, art. خشر.) مَلْقَطٌ [A place where a thing is picked up:] a place where a thing is sought, or to be sought: a mine: (TA:) [pl. مَلاقِطُ.] b2: أَصْبَحَتْ مَرَاعِينَا مَلَاقِطَ مِنَ الجَدْبِ Our places of pasturage became dried up, and destitute of herbage, by reason of the drought. (As.) مِلْقَطٌ A thing with which, (K,) or in which, (JM,) one picks up, or takes up, from the ground: (JM, K;) as also ↓ مِلْقَاطٌ. (TA.) مِلْقَاطٌ: see مِلْقَطٌ. b2: The [instrument called]

مِنْقَاش, (K, TA,) with which hair is plucked up. (TA.) مَلْقُوطٌ: see لَقِيطٌ, in two places. IAth explains مَالٌ مَلْقُوطٌ as signifying property found. (TA.) مُلْتَقَطٌ: see لَقَطٌ, last sentence but two. b2: Also, applied to a thing, i. q. سَاقِطٌ (assumed tropical:) [Vile, mean, or paltry]. (TA.)

لمس

1 لَمَسَهُ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (S, M, Msb, K) and لَمِسَ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (S, M, Msb,) He felt it; or touched it; syn. مَسَّهُ: (IAar, Az, IDrd, El-Fárábee, A, Msb, TA:) or he felt it, or touched it, (مَسَّهُ,) with his hand: (S, Msb, K:) or he put his hand to it: (Msb:) or he felt it with his hand for the purpose of testing it, that he might form a judgment of it; syn. جَسَّهُ: (M, TA:) and ↓ لَامَسَهُ is syn. with لَمَسَهُ, (M, TA,) or مَاسَّهُ: (A:) لَمْسٌ and مَسٌّ both signify the perceiving by means of the exterior of the external skin: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or they are nearly alike: (TA:) [generally, like the English words feeling and touching, respectively:] or the former is, originally, [the feeling] with the hand for the purpose of knowing the feel (مَسّ) of a thing: (IDrd, Msb:) or, with the hand, it is the seeking for [or feeling for] a thing here and there: (Lth, TA:) مُلَامَسَةٌ is the same as مُمَاسَّةٌ (K, TA) with the hand; as also لَمْسٌ: (TA:) or a distinction is to be made between them; for it is said that لَمْسٌ is sometimes the feeling, or touching a thing with a thing; and is sometimes [for] the knowledge of a thing, though there be no touching (مَسّ) of substance upon substance; whereas ملامسة is mostly mutual feeling or touching, &c., being] the act of two. (IAar in TA.) b2: [Hence,] لَمَسَهَا, (M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (M) [and لَمِسَ, as implied in the K], inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (S, M,) (tropical:) Inivit eam; (I'Ab, S, M, A, Msb, K;) scil. mulierem; (A, Msb;) puellam; (K;) as also ↓ لَامَسَهَا, (M, A, Msb,) inf. n. مُلَامَسَةٌ (I'Ab, S, Msb, K) and لِمَاسٌ: (I'Ab, Msb:) and (assumed tropical:) he kissed her; by doing which, as well as by the former, one renders necessary the performance of the ablution termed وضوء. ('Abd-Allah Ibn-'Amr, Ibn-Mes'ood.) b3: [Hence also,] لَمَسَهُ, aor. ـُ [and لَمِسَ], (A, TA,) inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (IDrd, Msb, TA,) (tropical:) He sought, [as though by feeling,] or sought for or after, it, namely, a thing, (IDrd, Msb, TA,) in any manner; (IDrd, Msb;) [as, for instance, by asking, or demanding;] as also ↓ التمسهُ, (S, M, A, * K, TA,) [which is more common,] and ↓ تلمّسهُ: (M, TA:) or this last signifies he sought it, or sought for or after it, repeatedly, or time after time. (S, K, TA.) You say, أُلْمُسْ لِى فُلَانًا (A, TA) (tropical:) Seek thou for me such a one. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [lxxii. 8,] relating the words of the jinn, or genii, إِنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَآءَ, (K, * TA, *) (tropical:) Verily we sought to reach heaven: or to learn the news thereof: (Bd:) or to hear by stealth what was said therein: (Jel:) or we laboured, or strove, after (عَالَجْنَا) the secrets of heaven, and sought to hear them by stealth. (K.) And in a trad., بِهِ عِلْمًا ↓ مَنْ سَلَكَ طَرِيقًا يَلْتَمِسُ (tropical:) Whoso pursueth a way whereby he seeketh after knowledge, or science. (TA.) And in another, of 'Áïsheh, عِقْدِى ↓ فَالْتَمَسْتُ (tropical:) And I sought for my necklace. (TA.) b4: لَمَسَ البَصَرَ, aor. ـُ (tropical:) It took away the sight. (A, TA.) And the same, or, accord. to one relation of a trad., ↓ التمسهُ, (assumed tropical:) It took away quickly, and destroyed, the sight; said there of certain serpents: or the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) it aimed at the eye with its bite: and لَمَسَ عَيْنَهُ is said to signify [(assumed tropical:) he, or it, put out his eye,] the same as سَمَلَ. (TA.) 3 لامسهُ, inf. n. مُلَامَسَةٌ and لِمَاسٌ: for its proper signification, see 1, in three places. [Hence,] بَيْعُ المُلَامَسَةِ, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb,) and بَيْعُ اللِّمَاسِ, (Mgh,) or المُلَامَسَةُ فِى البَيْعِ, (K,) A mode of bargaining, which consists in saying, When thou feelest, or touchest, my garment, or I feel, or touch, thy garment, (A, K,) or when, (Mgh,) or if, (Msb,) I feel, or touch, thy garment, and thou feelest, or touchest, my garment, (Mgh, Msb,) or when I feel, or touch, the thing to be sold, (S,) the sale is binding, or settled, or concluded, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) between us, (S, Msb,) for such a sum: (S, Msb, K:) or, accord. to Aboo-Haneefeh, in thy saying, I will sell to thee this commodity for such a sum, and when I feel, or touch, thee, the sale is binding, or settled, or concluded; or in the purchaser's saying the like: (Mgh:) or, (M, Mgh, K,) as in the Sunan of Aboo-Dáwood, (Mgh,) in purchasing a commodity on the condition of feeling it (M, Mgh, * K, *) behind a garment or piece of cloth, (K,) without seeing it, (M, K,) or spreading it out and turning it over and examining it: (Mgh:) or on the condition that the feeling it with the hand shall cut one off from the choice of returning it: (TA:) the mode of bargaining thus termed is forbidden. (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb.) b2: For a tropical signification of the verb, see 1.4 أَلْمِسْنِى الجَارِيَةَ Permit thou me to feel, or touch, the girl. (A, TA.) b2: أَلْمِسْنِى امْرَأَْةً (tropical:) Marry thou to me a woman. (A, TA.) 5 تَلَمَّسَ see 1, in two places.8 إِلْتَمَسَ see 1, in four places.

لَمُوسٌ A she-camel of whose fatness one doubts; (O, TS, K;) on the authority of Ibn-'Abbád; (TA;) i. q. شَكُوكٌ and ضَبُوثٌ: (A, TA:) or of whose hump one doubts, whether there be in her fat or not; wherefore it is felt: (M, L:) pl. لُمُسٌ. (M, K.) b2: [Hence,] (tropical:) One whose origin, or lineage, is suspected; syn. دَعِىٌّ: (K:) or in whose grounds of pretention to respect is a fault, or taint. (A, K.) لَمِيسٌ A woman soft to the feel, or touch; لَيِّنَةُ المَلْمَسِ. (K.) لَمَاسَةٌ, (M,) لُمَاسَةٌ, (S,) or both, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) A want: (IAar, Sgh:) or a moderate, or middling, want. (S, M, O, L.) لَمُوسَةٌ A road, or way: so called because he who has lost his way seeks it in order to find the track of the travellers. (K, * TA.) لَامِسٌ act. part. n. of 1. (Msb, &c.) One says, of a woman who commits adultery, or fornication, or acts viciously, فَلَانَةُ لَا تَرُدُّ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (A, TA,) or لَا تَمْنَعُ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (K,) but the latter is at variance with the written authorities, the former being the phrase commonly known, (TA,) [properly signifying, Such a woman does not repel the hand of a feeler;] meaning, (tropical:) such a woman commits adultery, or fornication, and acts viciously, (K, TA,) not repelling from herself any one who desires of her that he may lie with her; (TA;) and she is suspected of easiness, or compliance, (K, TA,) towards him who desires of her that he may lie with her: (TA:) or the meaning is, such a woman gives, of her husband's property, what is sought, or demanded, from her; and this is more probably meant in a trad. in which a man is related to have said thus of his wife; because Mohammad directed him to retain her, and did not require him to divorce her. (TA.) The like said of a man, (K,) فُلَانٌ لَا يَرُدُّ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (A, Msb,) means, (tropical:) Such a man has in him no force of resistance, (A, Msb, K,) nor care of what is sacred, or inviolable. (TA.) مَلْمَسٌ [A place that is felt, or touched: and it may also be an inf. n.: see لَمِيسٌ]. (K.) إِكَافٌ مَلْمُوسُ الأَحْنَآءِ (tropical:) An ass's saddle, or pad, of which the curved pieces of wood have been felt with the hands until they have become even: (M:) or of which any unevenness and prominence that was therein has been pared off (Lth, T, A, K) by the passing of the hand over it, (Lth, T,) or of the hands. (A.)

فلق

1 فَلَقَهُ, aor. ـِ (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) inf. n. فَلْقٌ, (S, Mgh, O, Msb,) He split it, clave it, or divided it lengthwise; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ فلّقهُ, (S, * K,) inf. n. تَفْلِيقٌ; (S;) or the latter has an intensive signification [or relates to a number of objects]. (O, * Msb.) 'Alee used often to swear by saying, وَالَّذِى فَلَقَ الحَبَّةَ وَبَرَأَ النَّسَمَةَ [By Him who clave the grain, making it to germinate, and created, or produced, man, or the soul]. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] فَلَقَ الصُّبْحَ, (S,) or الفَجْرَ, (TA,) said of God, (S, * TA,) He made the dawn [to break, or] to appear. (TA.) b3: فلقت النَّخْلَةُ [app. فَلَقَت, the part. n. being فَالِقٌ, q. v.,] means The palm-tree split, or clave, from [around, i. e. so as to disclose,] the spathe. (TA.) b4: And فَلَقَ فِى الأَرْضِ, aor. ـِ inf. n. فَلْقٌ, He ment far into the land; like غَلَقُ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O and TA in art. غلق.) A2: And فَلْقٌ, (K,) as inf. n. of فَلَقَ in the phrase فَلَقَ صُوفَ الجِلْدِ, (TK,) signifies The plucking of the wool of the bide when it has become stinking; like مَرْقٌ. (K, TA. [كالمَرَقِّ, in the CK, is a mistake, for كالمَرْقِ.]) 2 فَلَّقَ see above, first sentence.4 افلق He did, or performed, or he uttered, what was admirable, or wonderful; (S, O, Msb, K, TA;) said of a man, (S, O, TA,) and (TA) of a poet, (S, * O, * Msb, K, TA,) in his poetry; (TA;) as also ↓ افتلق. (S, K.) [From فِلْقٌ, q, v.]

b2: And He brought to pass that which was a calamity; (K;) as also ↓ افتلق. (Lh, TA.) One says to a man, أَعْلَقْتَ وَأَفْلَقْتَ i. e. جِئْتَ بِعُلَقَ فُلَقَ, meaning [Thou hast brought to pass] that which is a calamity. (S, O, K. *) b3: And افلق فِى الأمْرِ He was, or became, skilled in the affair. (TA.) 5 تَفَلَّقَ see 7, first sentence. [Hence] one says, تَصَدَّعَتِ البَيْضَةُ وَلَمْ تَتَفَلَّقْ [The egg cracked, or rather cracked in several places, but did not split apart, or did not split much]. (Az, S in art. قيض.) And of milk such as is termed رَائِب [q. v.] one says تفلّق meaning It became dissundered, or curdled, by reason of intense sourness: or, as heard by Az from some of the Arabs, it, being collected in a skin, and smitten by the heat of the sun, became dissundered, or curdled, so that the milk [or curds] became separate [from the whey]: and of such milk they loathe the drinking. (TA.) b2: And تفلّق الصَّبْحُ: see 7. b3: تفلّق said of a boy: see Q. Q. 2. b4: See also 8, in two places.7 انفلق It became split, cleft, or cloven, or divided lengthwise; it split, clave, or clave asunder; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ تفلّق; (S, Mgh, * K;) [or] the latter signifies تَشَقَّقَ [i. e. it became split, &c., much, or in pieces, or in several or many places]. (O, Msb.) The former occurs in the Kur xxvi. 63, said of the sea [as meaning It clave asunder]. (O.) b2: [Hence,] انفلق الصُّبْحُ (S and K in art. عطس) and ↓ تفلّق (TA in the present art.) The dawn broke. (TA in explanation of the latter.) 8 افتلق He (a man, TA) strove, or exerted himself, so that he excited wonder by reason of his vehemence in running; as also ↓ تفلّق and ↓ تَفَيْلَقَ. (K.)

[Her husband had become altered for the worse, or stinking, having died, in a well which he had descended]: from the saying in the Kur مِنْ حَمَأ

مَسْنُونٍ: [see مَسْنُونٌ:] but some say that he [who used this phrase] meant [to say, or meant thereby,] أَسِنَ, i. e. his head became affected with vertigo by reason of a foul odour that he smelt, and he swooned. (L.) 2 سنّنهُ: see 1, near the beginning. b2: [Hence,] سنّن المَنْطِقَ (assumed tropical:) He made the speech good, or beautiful; (M, L, K;) as though he polished it. (M, L.) b3: And سنّن إِلَيْهِ الرُّمْحَ, (M, L, K,) inf. n. تَسْنِينٌ, (M, L,) He directed, or pointed, the spear towards him, or it. (M, L, K.) 3 سانّ النَّاقَةَ, inf. n. مُسَانَّةٌ and سِنَانٌ, (S, M, L, K,) He (the stallion-camel) bit the she-camel with the fore part of the mouth: (L:) or he opposed himself to her, (M, L,) or drove her, (S, L,) or bit her with the fore part of the mouth, and drove her, (K,) to make her lie down, (S, M, L, K,) in order that he might cover her: (S, M, * L, K:) or he covered her without her desiring it, or before she desired it, by force. (IB, L.) 4 اسنّ, (S, M, L, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِسْنَانٌ, (Mgh, L, Msb,) said of a man, (S, M, L, Msb, K,) and of other than man, (Msb,) i. q. كَبِرَ [meaning He became advanced in age, or fullgrown], (S, L, Msb,) or كَبِرَتْ سِنُّهُ [which means the same]; (M, L, K;) as also ↓ استسنّ: (K:) but Az says that الإِسْنَانُ in the case of an animal of the ox-kind and of the sheep or goat, is not the same as in that of a man: for in such animals it means [the attaining to the age of] the coming forth of the [permanent] ثَنِيَّة [or central incisor]: (Msb:) or in such animals it means at least [the attaining to the age of] the shedding of the [tooth called] ثنيّة [which is generally said to be in the third year]; and at the utmost in such animals, [the attaining to the age of] what is termed الصُّلُوغ or السُّلُوغ [which is in the sixth year]; and at the utmost in camels, [the attaining to the age of] what is termed البُزُول [which is generally in the ninth year]. (Mgh, L.) [It is also expl. in the K as meaning His tooth grew forth: but the right explanation is one given in the Mgh and L; i. e. his tooth whereby he became مَسِنّ grew forth.] لَمْ يُسْنَنْ, occurring in a trad. of Ibn-'Omar, as some relate it, is a mistake for لَمْ يُسْنِنْ. (Mgh, L.) And البَدَنَةُ ↓ سُنَّتِ, a phrase mentioned by KT, as meaning The teeth of the بدنة grew forth, is also a mistake [for أَسَنَّت]. (L.) b2: You say also, اسنّ سَدِيسُ النَّاقَةِ The [tooth called] سديس of the she-camel grew forth, i. e. in the eighth year. (S, L.) A2: Also, said of God, He made a tooth to grow forth. (S, L, K.) اللّٰهُ ↓ سَنَّهَا, [referring to the teeth of a بَدَنَة,] a phrase mentioned by KT, is a mistake [for أَسَنَّهَا]. (L.) b2: See also 1, in the former half of the paragraph, in two places.5 تسنّن بِهِ [He took him, or it, as an exemplar, example, or object to be imitated]. (K voce قُدْوَةٌ.) b2: تسنّن فِى عَدْوِهِ He (a man) went at random, heedlessly, or in a headlong manner, in his running; as also ↓ استنّ. (M, L.) A2: See also 5 in art. سنه, last signification.6 تَسَانَّتِ الفُحُولُ i. q. تَكَادَمَت [meaning The stallion-camels bit one another with the fore part of the mouth]. (L, K.) 8 استنّ He rubbed and cleaned his teeth with the سِوَاك [or piece of stick used for that purpose]; (S, M, L, K;) he made use of the سِوَاك, passing it over his teeth. (L.) b2: And He took, or seized, with the teeth. (KL.) A2: استنّت العَيْنُ The eye poured forth its tears. (M, L.) b2: استنّ said of the blood of a wound made with a spear or the like, It issued in a gush. (Az, L.) b3: Said of the سَرَاب [or mirage], It was, or became, in a state of commotion, went to and fro, or quivered. (M, L, K.) b4: Said of a horse, i. q. قَمَصَ [app. as meaning He pranced, leaped, sprang, or bounded]: (S, K:) he frisked; or was brisk, lively, or sprightly: he ran, in his friskiness, briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, in one direction: he ran, by reason of his friskiness, briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, a heat, or two heats, without a rider upon him: (L:) he ran to and fro, by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness: from سَنَّ as signifying “ he poured forth ” water, and as signifying “ he sharpened ”

iron upon a whetstone. (Har p. 47.) It is said in a prov., اِسْتَنَّتِ الفِصَالُ حَتَّى القَرْعَى, (S, Meyd, L,) or الفُصْلَانُ, (Meyd,) i. e. The young weaned camels leaped, sprang, or bounded; (S * L;) even those affected with the small pustules called قَرَع; (Meyd, L;) which are small white pustules, the remedy for which is salt, and the butter (جُبَاب) of camels' milk: (Meyd:) when the healthy young weaned camels do thus, those affected with such pustules do the like in imitation, but become disabled from doing it by weakness: the prov. is applied to the man who introduces himself among a people, or party, to whom he does not belong: (L:) or to him who speaks with one before whom he should not speak by reason of the greatness of his rank: and some related it differently, saying, القُرَيْعَى [which is the dim. of القَرْعَى]; (Meyd;) and القُرْعُ [which is pl. of الأَقْرَعُ, q. v.]: and some say that استنّت الفِصَالُ signifies the young weaned camels became fat, or plump, and their skins became [sleek] like مَسَانّ [or whetstones]. (L.) And it is said in a trad. of 'Omar, رَأَيْتُ

أَبَاهُ يَسْتَنُّ بِسَيْفِهِ كَمَا يَسْتَنُّ الجَمَلُ, meaning [I saw his father] exulting with briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, and brandishing his sword, [like as the camel exults with briskness, and lashes with his tail.] (L.) See also 5. b5: [Also He took, held, or followed, the سَنَن, i. e., road, or way, or main and middle part thereof: and he, or it, was, or lay, in the way. Hence,] one says, خُذْ مَا اسْتَنَّ, meaning [Take thou what lies in the way;] what is easily attainable; what offers itself without difficulty. (AA, TA voce اِنْتَدَبَ.) b6: See also 1, near the end of the paragragh, in two places.10 إِسْتَسْنَ3َ see 4: A2: and see also 1, near the end of the paragraph, in two places. b2: اِسْتَسَنَّتِ الطَّرِيقُ The road was travelled. (K.) R. Q. 1 سَنْسَنَتِ الرِّيحُ The wind blew coldly, or coolly; as also نَسْنَسَت: so in the Nawádir. (L.) سِنٌّ i. q. ضِرْسٌ [as meaning A tooth; in which sense this latter word is often used; though it is frequently restricted to a molar tooth, or to any of the teeth except the central incisors]: (M, L, K:) [or, accord. to some, a single tooth; i. e. one that is not of the double, or molar, kind; as shown by a description in what follows:] of the fem. gender: (S, M, L, Msb:) pl. أَسْنَانٌ (S, M, L, Msb, K) and أَسِنَّةٌ and أَسُنٌّ, (M, L, K,) the last of these mentioned by Lh, and this and the second anomalous; (M, L;) or the second is allowable as pl. of the first of these pls.; (S;) or it is pl. of the سِنَان of the spear; but may also be pl. of أَسْنَانٌ as pl. of سِنٌّ applied to herbage upon which camels pasture, in an instance to be cited in what follows: (A'Obeyd, T, L:) the vulgar say إِسْنَان and أُسْنَان, which are wrong: (Msb:) the أَسْنَان of a human being consist of four ثَنَايَا, and four رَبَاعِيَات, and four أَنْيَاب, and four نَوَاجِذ, and sixteen أَضْرَاس: or, as some say, four ثنايا, and four رباعيات, and four انياب, and four نواجذ, and four ضَوَاحِك, and twelve أَرْحَآء: (Msb:) or the أَسْنَان and أَضْرَاس together make up the number of thirty-two; the ثنابا are four, two above and two below [in the middle]; next are the رباعيات, which are four, two above and two below; next are the انياب, which are four [likewise, two above and two below]; and next are the اضراس, which are twenty, on each side five above and five below; and of these [last] the four that are next to the انياب are the ضواحك; next to each ناب, above and below, is a ضَاحِك; next to the ضواحك are the طَوَاحِن, also called the أَرْحَآء, which are twelve, on each side [above and below] three; and next to these are the نواجذ, which are the last of the teeth in growth, and the last of the اضراس, on each side of the mouth one above and one below: (Zj in his “ Khalk el-Insán: ”) the dim. of سِنٌّ is ↓ سُنَيْنَةٌ, because it is fem. (S.) One says, لَا آتِيكَ سِنَّ الحِسْلِ, (S, M, L,) i. e. I will not come to thee as long as remains the tooth of the young one of the [kind of lizard called]

ضَبّ; (M, L;) meaning, ever; (S, M, * L;) because the حسل never sheds a tooth: (S, L:) or, as Lh relates it, on the authority of ElMufaddal, سِنَّىْ حِسْلٍ; [using the dual form of سِنٌّ;] and [it may be rendered, accord. to the former reading, (assumed tropical:) during the life of the young one of the ضّب, for] he says, they assert that the ضبّ lives three hundred years, and that it is the longest-lived creeping thing upon the earth. (M, L.) A poet (Aboo-Jarwal El-Jushamee, whose name was Hind, L) says, describing camels taken as a bloodwit, فَجَآءَتْ كَسِنِّ الظَّبْىِ لَمْ أَرَ مِثْلَهَا بَوَآءَ قَتِيلٍ أَوْ حَلُوبَةَ جَائِعِ [And they came; (assumed tropical:) like the age of the gazelle was the age of every one of them: I have not seen the like of them for an equivalent of a slain person, or a milch camel of one hungry: (I have given a reading of this verse that I have found in the M and TA in art. ظبى, instead of that in the present art. in the S and L, in which سنآءَ and سَنَآءَ are put in the place of بَوَآءَ app. for سِنَآءَ, an inf. n. of سَانَاهُ, and as such here meaning a soothing, or the like:)] he means that they were ثُنْيَان, [pl. of ثَنِىٌّ], because the ثَنِىّ is one shedding [or that has shed] his ثَنِيَّة, and the gazelle has no ثَنِيَّة [in the upper jaw], so that he is always [one that may be termed] a ثَنِىّ. (S, L.) It is said in a trad., إِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِى الخِصْبِ فَأَعْطُوا الرُّكُبَ

أَسِنَّتَهَا, [expl. as] meaning When ye journey in the land abounding with herbage, enable ye the ridden beasts to take of the pasturage: (S, L:) but Az states that A'Obeyd says, I know not أَسِنَّة except as pl. of the سِنَان of the spear; and if the trad. be [correctly] preserved in memory, it seems to be pl. of أَسْنَان; for سِنٌّ [sometimes] signifies the [portion of] herbage upon which camels pasture; and its pl. is أَسْنَانٌ; one says, أَسْنَانٌ مِنَ المَرْعَى; and the pl. of أَسْنَانٌ is أَسِنَّةٌ: Aboo-Sa'eed says that this last is pl. of سِنَانٌ, not of أَسْنَانٌ, and ↓ سِنَانٌ is applied to the [plants, or trees, called] حَمْض, as meaning (assumed tropical:) a strengthener [i. e. a sharpener of the appetite] of the camels for the [plants, or trees, called] خُلَّة: [see a phrase in the earlier part of the first paragraph:] in like manner, also, [he says,] when they light upon what is termed سِنٌّ مِنَ المَرْعَى [a portion of pasturage], this is termed عَلَى السَّيْرِ ↓ سِنَانٌ [a strengthener, or sharpener, for journeying]: this explanation is approved by Az, and likewise that of A'Obeyd: it is also related, on the authority of Fr, that السِّنُّ signifies the eating vehemently: [a signification mentioned in the K as well as in the L:] and Az says, I have heard more than one of the Arabs say, أَصَابَتِ الإِبِلُ اليَوْمَ سِنًّا مِنَ المَرْعَى

[The camels have obtained to-day a good portion of pasturage] when they have eaten well of the best of the pasturage: Z says that ↓ أَعْطُوا الرُّكُبَ أَسِنَّتَهَا means (assumed tropical:) Give ye to the ridden beasts what will prevent their being slaughtered; for when their owner pastures them well, they become fat, and goodly in his eye, and therefore he withholds himself, with niggardliness, from slaughtering them, and this [condition of them] is likened to أَسِنَّة [as meaning “ spear-heads ”] pl. of سِنَانٌ: [see also أَخَذَتْ رِمَاحَهَا, said of camels, voce رُمْحٌ:] or if the pl. of سِنٌّ be intended by it, the meaning is, enable ye them [i. e. the ridden beasts] to take of the pasturage; and hence the trad., أَعْطُوا السِّنَّ حَظَّهَا مِنَ السِّنِّ, i. e. Give ye the possessors of the سِنّ [meaning tooth] their share of the سِنّ which is the pasture. (L.) السِّنُّ is also used for ذَوَاتُ السِّنِّ [The possessors of the tooth] as meaning the slave and horses and the like and other animals, [collectively, in like manner as خُفٌّ and حَافِرٌ are used,] in a trad. of 'Omar. (L.) And it is said in a trad. of Ibn-Dhee-Yezen, لَأُوطِئَنَّ أَسْنَانَ العَرَبِ كَعْبَهُ, for ذَوِى أَسْنَانِ العَرَبِ, meaning [I will assuredly make] the great men and the nobles [of the Arabs to tread upon his ankle]. (L.) [But اسنان in this instance may be pl. of سِنٌّ in the sense here next following; so that ذوى اسنان may be rendered the advanced in age.]) b2: Hence, (L,) (tropical:) Life; (S, M, L, Msb;) metaphorically used in this sense as indicative of its length and its shortness; (L;) [for the teeth vary with the length of life;] the measure, (K,) or extent, of life; (Msb, K;) [the age attained;] used in relation to human beings and others: (M, L, K:) of the fem. gender in this sense also, (M, L, Msb,) because meaning مُدَّةٌ: (Msb:) pl. أَسْنَانٌ, (M, L, K,) only. (M, L.) You say رَجُلٌ حَدِيثُ السِّنِّ, meaning (assumed tropical:) A young man. (S, Msb, K, all in art. حدث.) And جَاوَزْتُ أَسْنَانَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِى (assumed tropical:) [I have exceeded] the lives of the people of my house. (L.) And صَدَقَنِى سِنَّ بَكْرِهِ [and سِنُّ بَكْرِهِ, expl. in art. بكر]. (L.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) A like, an equal, or a match, in age, of another; (M, L, K;) like تِنٌّ; (M, L;) as also ↓ سَنِينٌ, (M, L, K,) and ↓ سِنِينٌ, (L,) or ↓ سَنينَةٌ: (M, K:) in this sense also fem.; and [therefore] the dim. is ↓ سُنَيْنَةٌ; (L;) one says, اِبْنِى سُنَيْنَةُ ابْنِكَ [My son is the equal in age of thy son]: (El-Kanánee, L:) and the pl. is أَسُنٌّ and أَسْنَانٌ. (L.) b4: Also (assumed tropical:) A tooth of a مِنْجَل [or reaping-hook]: (M, L, K: *) pl. أَسْنَانٌ, signifying its أُشُر. (L and K in art. اشر.) b5: [And (assumed tropical:) A tooth of a comb.] The Arabs say كَأَسْنَانِ المُشْطِ meaning (assumed tropical:) [Like the teeth of the comb] in equality, in respect of any state, or condition: but if they mean equality in respect of evil, they say سَوَاسِيَةٌ كَأَسْنَانِ الحِمَارِ [Equals like the teeth of the ass]; سواسية being an anomalous pl. of سَوَآءٌ. (Har p. 39.) b6: and (assumed tropical:) The nib, i. e. the place of paring, of a writingreed: (S, L, K:) [and each lateral half of that part; for] the writing-reed has a right سِنّ and a left سِنّ: (TA in art. حرف:) [and ↓ سِنَّةٌ occurs in the K voce جِلْفَةٌ as meaning the point of a writing-reed.] One says, أَطِلْ سِنَّ قَلَمِكَ وَسَمِّنْهَا وَحَرِّفْ قِطَّتَكَ وَأَيْمِنْهَا [Make long the nib, or pared portion, of thy writing-reed, and make it thick (lit. fat), and make thy mode of cutting the extremity of the nib oblique, and make it to incline towards the right]. (S, L. *) b7: A tooth [or pin] of a key [app. of the kind of wooden lock called ضَبَّة, q. v.]. (MA.) b8: See also سِنْسِنٌ. b9: Also, (M, K, and A and K in art. فص,) or ↓ سِنَّةٌ, (S, JM,) A clove, (فَصٌّ, S and A as syn. with سِنٌّ in art. فص, and JM in explanation of سِنَّةٌ in the present art., or فَصَّةٌ, S and L in explanation of سِنَّةٌ,) or a حَبَّة [app. here meaning small distinct portion] of the head [app. here meaning bulb], (M and L and K in explanation of سِنٌّ,) of garlic. (S, M, A, L, K, JM.) A2: [Accord. to some,] one says, وَقَعَ فُلَانٌ فِى سِنِّ رَأْسِهِ, meaning Such a one fell into [what equalled] the number of his hairs, of good, (M, * L, K, *) and of evil: (L:) or, as some say, into what he willed, or wished, and had authority to decide: (L, K:) but this is a mistranscription: (Meyd:) the correct saying is فِى سِىِّ رَأْسِهِ, (Az, Meyd, L,) and سَوَآءِ رَأْسِهِ, meaning he fell into a state of enjoyment, or welfare; (Meyd;) the former sometimes expl. as meaning, [he lighted upon, or came upon, what equalled] the number of the hairs of his head, of wealth, or good: (A'Obeyd, Meyd:) or what equalled [the hairs of] his head, of abundance of herbage, or of the goods, conveniences, or comforts, of life: (Az, L, and Meyd * on the authority of IAar:) the saying is a prov. (Meyd.) A3: السِّنُّ also signifies The wild bull. (L, K.) سَنَّةٌ, (K,) or ↓ سِنَّةٌ, (so in the L,) A she-bear; syn. دُبَّةٌ. (K: in the L دِبَّة.) And A she-lynx: syn. فَهْدَةٌ.

المَقْدِسُ:
في اللغة المنزه، قال المفسرون في قوله تعالى:
وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ 2: 30، قال الزّجاج: معنى نقدس لك أي نطهّر أنفسنا لك وكذلك نفعل بمن أطاعك نقدسه أي نطهّره، قال: ومن هذا قيل للسطل القدس لأنه يتقدّس منه أي يتطهّر، قال:
ومن هذا بيت المقدس، كذا ضبطه بفتح أوله، وسكون ثانيه، وتخفيف الدال وكسرها، أي البيت المقدّس المطهّر الذي يتطهر به من الذنوب، قال مروان:
قل للفرزدق، والسفاهة كاسمها: ... إن كنت تارك ما أمرتك فاجلس
ودع المدينة إنها محذورة، ... والحق بمكة أو بيت المقدس
وقال قتادة: المراد بأرض المقدس أي المبارك، وإليه ذهب ابن الأعرابي، ومنه قيل للراهب مقدّس، ومنه قول امرئ القيس:
فأدركنه يأخذن بالساق والنّسا ... كما شبرق الولدان ثوب المقدّس
وصبيان النصارى يتبرّكون به وبمسح مسحه الذي هو لابسه وأخذ خيوطه منه حتى يتمزق عنه ثوبه، وفضائل بيت المقدس كثيرة ولا بدّ من ذكر شيء منها حتى يستحسنه المطّلع عليه، قال مقاتل بن سليمان قوله تعالى: وَنَجَّيْناهُ وَلُوطاً إِلَى الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي بارَكْنا فِيها لِلْعالَمِينَ، 21: 71 قال: هي بيت المقدس، وقوله تعالى لبني إسرائيل: وواعدناكم جانب الطور الأيمن، يعني بيت المقدس، وقوله تعالى: وجعلنا ابن مريم وأمه آيتين وآويناهما إلى ربوة ذات قرار ومعين، قال:
البيت المقدس، وقال تعالى: سُبْحانَ الَّذِي أَسْرى بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلًا من الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى 17: 1، هو بيت المقدس، وقوله تعالى: في بيوت أذن الله أن ترفع ويذكر فيها اسمه، البيت المقدس، وفي الخبر: من صلى في بيت المقدس فكأنما صلى في السماء، ورفع الله عيسى بن مريم إلى السماء من بيت المقدس وفيه مهبطه إذا هبط وتزفّ الكعبة بجميع حجّاجها إلى البيت المقدس يقال لها مرحبا بالزائر والمزور، وتزف جميع مساجد الأرض إلى البيت المقدس، أول شيء حسر عنه بعد الطوفان صخرة بيت المقدس وفيه ينفخ في الصور يوم القيامة وعلى صخرته ينادي المنادي يوم القيامة، وقد قال الله تعالى لسليمان بن داود، عليهما السلام، حين فرغ من بناء البيت المقدس:
سلني أعطك، قال: يا رب أسألك أن تغفر لي ذنبي، قال: لك ذلك، قال: يا رب وأسألك أن تغفر لمن جاء هذا البيت يريد الصلاة فيه وأن تخرجه من ذنوبه كيوم ولد، قال: لك ذلك، قال: وأسألك من جاء فقيرا أن تغنيه، قال: لك ذلك، قال:
وأسألك من جاء سقيما أن تشفيه، قال: ولك ذلك، وعن النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، أنه قال: لا تشدّ الرحال إلا إلى ثلاثة مساجد: مسجدي هذا والمسجد الحرام ومسجد البيت المقدس، وإن الصلاة في بيت المقدس خير من ألف صلاة في غيره، وأقرب بقعة في الأرض من السماء البيت المقدس ويمنع الدّجال من دخولها ويهلك يأجوج ومأجوج دونها، وأوصى آدم، عليه السّلام، أن يدفن بها وكذلك إسحاق وإبراهيم، وحمل يعقوب من أرض مصر حتى دفن بها، وأوصى يوسف، عليه السّلام، حين مات بأرض مصر أن يحمل إليها، وهاجر إبراهيم من كوثى إليها، وإليها المحشر ومنها المنشر، وتاب الله على داود بها، وصدّق إبراهيم الرؤيا بها، وكلّم عيسى الناس في المهد بها، وتقاد الجنة يوم القيامة إليها ومنها يتفرّق الناس إلى الجنة أو إلى النار، وروي عن كعب أن جميع الأنبياء، عليهم السلام، زاروا بيت المقدس تعظيما له، وروي عن كعب أنه قال: لا تسمّوا بيت المقدس إيلياء ولكن سموه باسمه فإن إيلياء امرأة بنت المدينة، وعن عبد الله بن عمر قال: قال رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم: فلما فرغ سليمان من بناء بيت المقدس سأل الله حكما يوافق حكمه وملكا لا ينبغي لأحد من بعده فأعطاه الله ذلك، وعن ابن عباس قال: البيت المقدس بنته الأنبياء وسكنته الأنبياء ما فيه موضع شبر إلا وقد صلى فيه نبيّ أو أقام فيه ملك، وعن أبي ذر قال: قلت لرسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم: أيّ مسجد وضع على وجه الأرض أوّلا؟ قال: المسجد الحرام، قلت: ثم أيّ؟ قال: البيت المقدس وبينهما أربعون سنة، وروي عن أبيّ بن كعب قال: أوحى الله تعالى إلى داود ابن لي بيتا، قال: يا رب وأين من الأرض؟ قال: حيث ترى الملك شاهرا سيفه، فرأى داود ملكا على الصخرة واقفا وبيده سيف، وعن الفضيل بن عياض قال: لمّا صرفت القبلة نحو الكعبة قالت الصخرة: إلهي لم أزل قبلة لعبادك حتى إذا بعثت خير خلقك صرفت قبلتهم عني! قال: ابشري فإني واضع عليك عرشي وحاشر إليك خلقي وقاض عليك أمري وناشر منك عبادي، وقال كعب: من زار البيت المقدس شوقا إليه دخل الجنة، ومن صلى فيه ركعتين خرج من ذنوبه كيوم ولدته أمه وأعطي قلبا شاكرا ولسانا ذاكرا، ومن تصدّق فيه بدرهم كان فداءه من النار، ومن صام فيه يوما واحدا كتبت له براءته من النار، وقال كعب: معقل المؤمنين أيام الدجال البيت المقدس يحاصرهم فيه حتى يأكلوا أوتار قسيّهم من الجوع، فبينما هم كذلك إذ سمعوا صوتا من الصخرة فيقولون هذا صوت رجل شعبان، ينظرون فإذا عيسى بن مريم، عليه السّلام، فإذا رآه الدجال هرب منه فيتلقاه بباب لدّ فيقتله، وقال أبو مالك القرظي في كتاب اليهود الذي لم يغيّر: إن الله تعالى خلق الأرض فنظر إليها وقال: أنا واطئ على بقعتك، فشمخت الجبال وتواضعت الصخرة فشكر الله لها وقال: هذا مقامي وموضع ميزاني وجنتي وناري ومحشر خلقي وأنا ديّان يوم الدين، وعن وهب بن منبّه قال: أمر إسحاق ابنه يعقوب أن لا ينكح امرأة من الكنعانيين وأن ينكح من بنات خاله لابان ابن تاهر بن أزر وكان مسكنه فلسطين فتوجه إليها يعقوب، وأدركه في بعض الطريق الليل فبات متوسدا حجرا فرأى فيما يرى النائم كأن سلّما منصوبا إلى باب السماء عند رأسه والملائكة تنزل منه وتعرج فيه وأوحى الله إليه: إني أنا الله لا إله إلا أنا إلهك وإله آبائك إبراهيم وإسماعيل وإسحاق وقد ورّثتك هذه الأرض المقدسة وذريتك من بعدك وباركت فيك وفيهم وجعلت فيكم الكتاب والحكمة والنبوّة ثم أنا معك حتى تدرك إلى هذا المكان فاجعله بيتا تعبدني فيه أنت وذريتك، فيقال إنه بيت المقدس، فبناه داود وابنه سليمان ثم أخربته الجبابرة بعد ذلك فاجتاز به شعيا، وقيل عزير، عليهما السلام، فرآه خرابا، فقال: أنّي يحيى هذه الله بعد موتها؟ فأماته الله مائة عام ثم بعثه، كما قص، عزّ وجل، في كتابه الكريم، ثم بناه ملك من ملوك فارس يقال له كوشك، وكان قد اتخذ سليمان في بيت المقدس أشياء عجيبة، منها القبّة التي فيها السلسلة المعلقة ينالها صاحب الحق ولا ينالها المبطل حتى اضمحلت بحيلة غير معروفة، وكان من عجائب بنائه أنه بنى بيتا وأحكمه وصقله فإذا دخله الفاجر والورع تبيّن الفاجر من الورع لأن
الورع كان يظهر خياله في الحائط أبيض والفاجر يظهر خياله أسود، وكان أيضا مما اتخذ من الأعاجيب أن ينصب في زاوية من زواياه عصا آبنوس فكان من مسها من أولاد الأنبياء لم تضرّه ومن مسها من غيرهم أحرقت يده، وقد وصفها القدماء بصفات إن استقصيتها أمللت القارئ، والذي شاهدته أنا منها أن أرضها وضياعها وقراها كلّها جبال شامخة وليس حولها ولا بالقرب منها أرض وطيئة البتة وزروعها على الجبال وأطرافها بالفؤوس لأن الدواب لا صنع لها هناك، وأما نفس المدينة فهي على فضاء في وسط تلك الجبال وأرضها كلها حجر من الجبال التي هي عليها وفيها أسواق كثيرة وعمارات حسنة، وأما الأقصى فهو في طرفها الشرقي نحو القبلة أساسه من عمل داود، عليه السّلام، وهو طويل عريض وطوله أكثر من عرضه، وفي نحو القبلة المصلى الذي يخطب فيه للجمعة وهو على غاية الحسن والإحكام مبنيّ على الأعمدة الرخام الملونة والفسيفساء التي ليس في الدنيا أحسن منها لا جامع دمشق ولا غيره، وفي وسط صحن هذا الموضع مصطبة عظيمة في ارتفاع نحو خمسة أذرع كبيرة يصعد إليها الناس من عدة مواضع بدرج، وفي وسط هذه المصطبة قبة عظيمة على أعمدة رخام مسقفة برصاص منمّقة من برّا وداخل بالفسيفساء مطبقة بالرخام الملون قائم ومسطح، وفي وسط هذا الرخام قبة أخرى وهي قبة الصخرة التي تزار وعلى طرفها أثر قدم النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، وتحتها مغارة ينزل إليها بعدّة درج مبلّطة بالرخام قائم ونائم يصلّى فيها وتزار، ولهذه القبة أربعة أبواب، وفي شرقيها برأسها قبة أخرى على أعمدة مكشوفة حسنة مليحة يقولون إنها قبة السلسلة، وقبة المعراج أيضا على حائط المصطبة وقبة النبي داود، عليه السّلام، كل ذلك على أعمدة مطبق أعلاها بالرصاص، وفيها مغاور كثيرة ومواضع يطول عددها مما يزار ويتبرك به، ويشرب أهل المدينة من ماء المطر، ليس فيها دار إلا وفيها صهريج لكنها مياه رديّة أكثرها يجتمع من الدروب وإن كانت دروبهم حجارة ليس فيها ذلك الدّنس الكثير، وبها ثلاث برك عظام: بركة بني إسرائيل وبركة سليمان، عليه السّلام، وبركة عياض عليها حمّاماتهم، وعين سلوان في ظاهر المدينة في وادي جهنم مليحة الماء وكان بنو أيوب قد أحكموا سورها ثم خرّبوه على ما نحكيه بعد، وفي المثل:
قتل أرضا عالمها وقتلت أرض جاهلها، هذا قول أبي عبد الله محمد بن أحمد بن البنّاء البشّاري المقدسي له كتاب في أخبار بلدان الإسلام وقد وصف بيت المقدس فأحسن فالأولى أن نذكر قوله لأنه أعرف ببلده وإن كان قد تغير بعده بعض معالمها، قال: هي متوسطة الحرّ والبرد قلّ ما يقع فيها ثلج، قال:
وسألني القاضي أبو القاسم عن الهواء بها فقلت: سجسج لا حرّ ولا برد، فقال: هذه صفة الجنّة، قلت:
بنيانهم حجر لا ترى أحسن منه ولا أنفس منه ولا أعفّ من أهلها ولا أطيب من العيش بها ولا أنظف من أسواقها ولا أكبر من مسجدها ولا أكثر من مشاهدها، وكنت يوما في مجلس القاضي المختار أبي يحيى بهرام بالبصرة فجرى ذكر مصر إلى أن سئلت: أيّ بلد أجلّ؟ قلت: بلدنا، قيل: فأيهما أطيب؟ قلت: بلدنا، قيل: فأيهما أفضل؟ قلت: بلدنا، قيل: فأيهما أحسن؟ قلت:
بلدنا، قيل: فأيهما أكثر خيرات؟ قلت: بلدنا، قيل: فأيهما أكبر؟ قلت: بلدنا، فتعجب أهل المجلس من ذلك وقيل: أنت رجل محصّل وقد ادّعيت ما لا يقبل منك وما مثك إلا كصاحب
الناقة مع الحجاج، قلت: أما قولي أجلّ فلأنها بلدة جمعت الدنيا والآخرة فمن كان من أبناء الدنيا وأراد الآخرة وجد سوقها، ومن كان من أبناء الآخرة فدعته نفسه إلى نعمة الدنيا وجدها، وأما طيب هوائها فإنه لا سمّ لبردها ولا أذى لحرها، وأما الحسن فلا يرى أحسن من بنيانها ولا أنظف منها ولا أنزه من مسجدها، وأما كثرة الخيرات فقد جمع الله فيها فواكه الأغوار والسهل والجبل والأشياء المتضادّة كالأترجّ واللوز والرطب والجوز والتين والموز، وأما الفضل فهي عرصة القيامة ومنها النشر وإليها الحشر وإنما فضلت مكة بالكعبة والمدينة بالنبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، ويوم القيامة تزفّان إليها فتحوي الفضل كله، وأما الكبر فالخلائق كلهم يحشرون إليها فأي أرض أوسع منها؟ فاستحسنوا ذلك وأقرّوا به، قال: إلا أن لها عيوبا، يقال إن في التوراة مكتوبا بيت المقدس طست من ذهب مملوء عقارب، ثم لا ترى أقذر من حماماتها ولا أثقل مؤنة وهي مع ذلك قليلة العلماء كثيرة النصارى وفيهم جفاء وعلى الرحبة والفنادق ضرائب ثقال وعلى ما يباع فيها رجّالة وعلى الأبواب أعوان فلا يمكن أحدا أن يبيع شيئا مما يرتفق به الناس إلا بها مع قلة يسار، وليس للمظلوم أنصار، فالمستور مهموم والغني محسود والفقيه مهجور والأديب غير مشهور، ولا مجلس نظر ولا تدريس، قد غلب عليها النصارى واليهود وخلا المجلس من الناس والمسجد من الجماعات، وهي أصغر من مكة وأكبر من المدينة عليها حصن بعضه على جبل وعلى بقيته خندق، ولها ثمانية أبواب حديد:
باب صهيون وباب النية وباب البلاط وباب جب ارميا وباب سلوان وباب أريحا وباب العمود وباب محراب داود، عليه السّلام، والماء بها واسع، وقيل: ليس ببيت المقدس أكثر من الماء والأذان قلّ أن يكون بها دار ليس بها صهريج أو صهريجان أو ثلاثة على قدر كبرها وصغرها، وبها ثلاث برك عظام: بركة بني إسرائيل وبركة سليمان وبركة عياض عليها حمّاماتهم لها دواع من الأزقة، وفي المسجد عشرون جبّا مشجّرة قلّ أن تكون حارة ليس بها جبّ مسيل غير أن مياها من الأزقة وقد عمد إلى واد فجعل بركتين تجتمع إليهما السيول في الشتاء وقد شقّ منهما قناه إلى البلد تدخل وقت الربيع فتدخل صهاريج الجامع وغيرها، وأما المسجد الأقصى فهو على قرنة البلد الشرقي نحو القبلة أساسه من عمل داود، طول الحجر عشرة أذرع وأقلّ منقوشة موجّهة مؤلفة صلبة وقد بنى عليه عبد الملك بحجارة صغار حسان وشرّفوه وكان أحسن من جامع دمشق لكن جاءت زلزلة في أيام بني العباس فطرحته إلّا ما حول المحراب، فلما بلغ الخليفة خبره أراد رده مثلما كان فقيل له:
تعيا ولا تقدر على ذلك، فكتب إلى أمراء الأطراف والقوّاد يأمرهم أن يبني كل واحد منهم رواقا، فبنوه أوثق وأغلظ صناعة مما كان، وبقيت تلك القطعة شامة فيه وهي إلى حذاء الأعمدة الرخام، وما كان من الأساطين المشيدة فهو محدث، وللمغطى ستة وعشرون بابا: باب يقابل المحراب يسمّى باب النحاس الأعظم مصفح بالصفر المذهّب لا يفتح مصراعه إلا رجل شديد القوّة عن يمينه سبعة أبواب كبار في وسطها باب مصفح مذهب وعلى اليسار مثلها وفي نحو المشرق أحد عشر بابا سواذج وخمسة عشر رواقا على أعمدة رخام أحدثها عبد الله بن طاهر، وعلى الصحن من الميمنة أروقة على أعمدة رخام وأساطين، وعلى المؤخر أروقة ازاج من الحجارة، وعلى وسط المغطى جمل عظيم خلف قبة حسنة، والسقوف كلها إلّا المؤخر ملبسة بشقاق الرصاص والمؤخر مرصوف بالفسيفساء الكبار والصحن كله مبلط، وفي وسط الرواق دكة مربعة مثل مسجد يثرب يصعد إليها من أربع جهاتها بمراق واسعة، وفي الدكة أربع قباب:
قبة السلسلة وقبة المعراج وقبة النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، وهذه الثلاث الصغار ملبسة بالرصاص على أعمدة رخام مكشوفة، وفي وسط الدكة قبة الصخرة على بيت مثمن بأربعة أبواب كل باب يقابل مرقاة من مراقي الدكة، وهي: الباب القبليّ وباب إسرافيل وباب الصور وباب النساء، وهو الذي يفتح إلى المغرب، جميعها مذهبة في وجه كل واحد باب مليح من خشب التّنّوب، وكانت قد أمرت بعملها أمّ المقتدر بالله، وعلى كل باب صفّة مرخمة والتنّوبيّة مطبّقة على الصفرية من خارج، وعلى أبواب الصفّات أبواب أيضا سواذج داخل البيت ثلاثة أروقة دائرة على أعمدة معجونة أجلّ من الرخام وأحسن لا نظير لها قد عقدت عليه أروقة لاطئة داخلة في رواق آخر مستدير على الصخرة على أعمدة معجونة بقناطر مدورة فوق هذه منطقة متعالية في الهواء فيها طاقات كبار والقبة فوق المنطقة طولها غير القاعدة الكبرى مع السّفّود في الهواء مائة ذراع ترى من البعد فوقها سفود حسن طوله قامة وبسطة، والقبة على عظمها ملبسة بالصفر المذهب وأرض البيت مع حيطانه، والمنطقة من داخل وخارج على صفة جامع دمشق، والقبة ثلاث سافات: الأولى مروّقة على الألواح، والثانية من أعمدة الحديد قد شبكت لئلا تميلها الرياح، ثم الثالثة من خشب عليها الصفائح وفي وسطها طريق إلى عند السفود يصعد منها الصّنّاع لتفقدها ورمّها فإذا بزغت عليها الشمس أشرقت القبة وتلألأت المنطقة ورؤيت شيئا عجيبا، وعلى الجملة لم أر في الإسلام ولا سمعت أن في الشرك مثل هذه القبة، ويدخل المسجد من ثلاثة عشر موضعا بعشرين بابا، منها:
باب الحطّة وباب النبي، عليه الصلاة والسلام، وباب محراب مريم وباب الرحمة وباب بركة بني إسرائيل وباب الأسباط وباب الهاشميين وباب الوليد وباب إبراهيم، عليه السلام، وباب أمّ خالد وباب داود، عليه السّلام، وفيه من المشاهد محراب مريم وزكرياء ويعقوب والخضر ومقام النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلم، وجبرائيل وموضع المنهل والنور والكعبة والصراط متفرقة فيه وليس على الميسرة أروقة، والمغطى لا يتصل بالحائط الشرقي وإنما ترك هذا البعض لسبين أحدهما قول عمر: واتخذوا في غربي هذا المسجد مصلّى للمسلمين، فتركت هذه القطعة لئلا يخالف، والآخر لو مدّ المغطى إلى الزاوية لم تقع الصخرة حذاء المحراب فكرهوا ذلك، والله أعلم، وطول المسجد ألف ذراع بالذراع الهاشمي، وعرضه سبعمائة ذراع، وفي سقوفه من الخشب أربعة آلاف خشبة وسبعمائة عمود رخام، وعلى السقوف خمسة وأربعون ألف شقة رصاص، وحجم الصخرة ثلاثة وثلاثون ذراعا في سبعة وعشرين، وتحت الصخرة مغارة تزار ويصلّى فيها تسع مائة وستين نفسا، وكانت وظيفته كل شهر مائة دينار، وفي كل سنة ثمانمائة ألف ذراع حصرا، وخدّامه مماليك له أقامهم عبد الملك من خمس الأسارى ولذلك يسمّون الأخماس لا يخدمه غيرهم ولهم نوب يحفظونها، وقال المنجمون:
المقدس طوله ست وخمسون درجة، وعرضه ثلاث وثلاثون درجة، في الإقليم الثالث، وأما فتحها في أول الإسلام إلى يومنا هذا فإن عمر بن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، أنفذ عمرو بن العاص إلى فلسطين ثم نزل البيت المقدس فامتنع عليه فقدم أبو عبيدة بن الجرّاح
بعد أن افتتح قنّسرين وذلك في سنة 16 للهجرة فطلب أهل بيت المقدس من أبي عبيدة الأمان والصلح على مثل ما صولح عليه أهل مدن الشام من أداء الجزية والخراج والدخول فيما دخل فيه نظراؤهم على أن يكون المتولّي للعقد لهم عمر بن الخطاب، فكتب أبو عبيدة بذلك إلى عمر فقدم عمر ونزل الجابية من دمشق ثم صار إلى بيت المقدس فأنفذ صلحهم وكتب لهم به كتابا وكان ذلك في سنة 17، ولم تزل على ذلك بيد المسلمين، والنصارى من الروم والأفرنج والأرمن وغيرهم من سائر أصنافهم يقصدونها للزيارة إلى بيعتهم المعروفة بالقمامة وليس لهم في الأرض أجلّ منها، حتى انتهت إلى أن ملكها سكمان بن أرتق وأخوه ايلغازي جدّ هؤلاء الذين بدياربكر صاحب ماردين وآمد، والخطبة فيها تقام لبني العباس، فاستضعفهم المصريون وأرسلوا إليهم جيشا لا طاقة لهم به، وبلغ سكمان وأخاه خبر ذلك فتركوها من غير قتال وانصرفوا نحو العراق، وقيل: بل حاصروها ونصبوا عليها المجانيق ثم سلموها بالأمان ورجع هؤلاء إلى نحو المشرق، وذلك في سنة 491، واتّفق أن الأفرنج في هذه الأيام خرجوا من وراء البحر إلى الساحل فملكوا جميع الساحل أو أكثره وامتدوا حتى نزلوا على البيت المقدّس فأقاموا عليها نيفا وأربعين يوما ثم ملكوها من شماليها من ناحية باب الأسباط عنوة في اليوم الثالث والعشرين من شعبان سنة 492 ووضعوا السيف في المسلمين أسبوعا والتجأ الناس إلى الجامع الأقصى فقتلوا فيه ما يزيد على سبعين ألفا من المسلمين وأخذوا من عند الصخرة نيفا وأربعين قنديلا فضّة كل واحد وزنه ثلاثة آلاف وستمائة درهم فضّة وتنّور فضة وزنه أربعون رطلا بالشامي وأموالا لا تحصى، وجعلوا الصخرة والمسجد الأقصى مأوى لخنازيرهم، ولم يزل في أيديهم حتى استنقذه منهم الملك الناصر صلاح الدين يوسف بن أيوب في سنة 583 بعد إحدى وتسعين سنة أقامها في يد الأفرنج وهي الآن في يد بني أيوب، والمستولي عليهم الآن منهم الملك المعظم عيسى ابن العادل أبي بكر بن أيوب، وكانوا قد أحكموا سوره وعمّروه وجوّدوه، فلما خرج الأفرنج في سنة 616 وتملّكوا دمياط استظهر الملك المعظم بخراب سوره وقال: نحن لا نمنع البلدان بالأسوار إنما نمنعها بالسيوف والأساورة، وهذا كاف في خبرها وليس كلّ ما أجده أكتبه ولو فعلت ذلك لم يتسع لي زماني، وفي المسجد أماكن كثيرة وأوصاف عجيبة لا تتصوّر إلا بالمشاهدة عيانا، ومن أعظم محاسنه أنه إذا جلس إنسان فيه في أي موضع منه يرى أن ذلك الموضع هو أحسن المواضع وأشرحها، ولذا قيل إن الله نظر إليه بعين الجمال ونظر إلى المسجد الحرام بعين الجلال:
أهيم بقاع القدس ما هبّت الصّبا، ... فتلك رباع الأنس في زمن الصّبا
وما زلت في شوقي إليها مواصلا ... سلامي على تلك المعاهد والرّبى
والحمد لله الذي وفّقني لزيارته، وينسب إلى بيت المقدس جماعة من العبّاد الصالحين والفقهاء، منهم:
نصر بن إبراهيم بن نصر بن إبراهيم بن داود أبو الفتح المقدسي الفقيه الشافعي الزاهد أصله من طرابلس وسكن بيت المقدس ودرّس بها وكان قد سمع بدمشق من أبي الحسن السمسار وأبي الحسن محمد بن عوف وابن سعدان وابن شكران وأبي القاسم وابن الطبري، وسمع بآمد هبة الله بن سليمان وسليم بن أيوب بصور وعليه تفقّه وعلى محمد بن البيان الكازروني، وروى عنه أبو بكر الخطيب وعمر بن عبد الكريم
الدهستاني وأبو القاسم النسيب وأبو الفتح نصر الله اللاذقي وأبو محمد بن طاووس وجماعة، وكان قدم دمشق في سنة 71 في نصف صفر ثم خرج إلى صور وأقام بها نحو عشر سنين ثم قدم دمشق سنة 80 فأقام بها يحدث ويدرّس إلى أن مات، وكان فقيها فاضلا زاهدا عابدا ورعا أقام بدمشق ولم يقبل لأحد من أهلها صلة، وكان يقتات من غلة تحمل إليه من أرض كانت له بنابلس وكان يخبز له منها كل يوم قرص في جانب الكانون، وكان متقلّلا متزهدا عجيب الأمر في ذلك، وكان يقول: درست على الفقيه سليم من سنة 37 إلى سنة 40 ما فاتني فيها درس ولا إعادة ولا وجعت إلا يوما واحدا وعوفيت، وسئل كم في ضمن التعليقة التي صنّفها من جزء، فقال:
نحو ثلاثمائة جزء وما كتبت منها حرفا وأنا على غير وضوء، أو كما قال، وزاره تاج الدولة تتش بن ألب أرسلان يوما فلم يقم إليه وسأله عن أحلّ الأموال السلطانية فقال: أموال الجزية، فخرج من عنده وأرسل إليه بمبلغ من المال وقال له: هذا من مال الجزية، ففرّقه على الأصحاب ولم يقبله وقال: لا حاجة لنا إليه، فلما ذهب الرسول لامه الفقيه أبو الفتح نصر الله بن محمد وقال له: قد علمت حاجتنا إليه فلو كنت قبلته وفرّقته فينا، فقال: لا تجزع من فوته فلسوف يأتيك من الدنيا ما يكفيك فيما بعد، فكان كما تفرّس فيه، وذكر بعض أهل العلم قال: صحبت أبا المعالي الجويني بخراسان ثم قدمت العراق فصحبت الشيخ أبا إسحاق الشيرازي فكانت طريقته عندي أفضل من طريقة الجويني، ثم قدمت الشام فرأيت الفقيه أبا الفتح فكانت طريقته أحسن من طريقتهما جميعا، وتوفي الشيخ أبو الفتح يوم الثلاثاء التاسع من المحرم سنة 490 بدمشق ودفن بباب الصغير، ولم تر جنازة أوفر خلقا من جنازته، رحمة الله عليه، ومحمد بن طاهر بن علي بن أحمد أبو الفضل المقدسي الحافظ ويعرف بابن القيسراني، طاف في طلب الحديث وسمع بالشام وبمصر والعراق وخراسان والجبل وفارس، وسمع بمصر من الجبّاني وأبي الحسن الخلعي، قال: وسمعت أبا القاسم إسماعيل بن محمد بن الفضل الحافظ يقول: أحفظ من رائيّة محمد ابن طاهر ما هو هذا:
إلى كم أمنّي النفس بالقرب واللّقا ... بيوم إلى يوم وشهر إلى شهر؟
وحتّام لا أحظى بوصل أحبّتي ... وأشكو إليهم ما لقيت من الهجر؟
فلو كان قلبي من حديد أذابه ... فراقكم أو كان من صالب الصخر
ولمّا رأيت البين يزداد والنّوى ... تمثّلت بيتا قيل في سالف الدهر:
متى يستريح القلب، والقلب متعب، ... ببين على بين وهجر على هجر؟
قال الحافظ: سمعت أبا العلاء الحسن بن أحمد الهمذاني الحافظ ببغداد يذكر أن أبا الفضل ابتلي بهوى امرأة من أهل الرستاق كانت تسكن قرية على ستة فراسخ فكان يذهب كل ليلة فيرقبها فيراها تغزل في ضوء السراج ثم يرجع إلى همذان فكان يمشي كل يوم وليلة اثني عشر فرسخا، ومات ابن طاهر ودفن عند القبر الذي على جبلها يقال له قبر رابعة العدوية وليس هو بقبرها إنما قبرها بالبصرة وأما القبر الذي هناك فهو قبر رابعة زوجة أحمد بن أبي الحواري الكاتب وقد اشتبه على الناس.
