Its root in the classical dictionaries

أصل البطن الجارحة، وجمعه بطون، قال تعالى: وإذ أنتم أجنة في بطون أمهاتكم [النجم/ 32] ، وقد بطنته: أصبت بطنه، والبطن: خلاف الظهر في كل شيء، ويقال للجهة السفلى: بطن، وللجهة العليا: ظهر، وبه شبه بطن الأمر وبطن الوادي، والبطن من العرب اعتبارا بأنهم كشخص واحد، وأن كل قبيلة منهم كعضو بطن وفخذ وكاهل، وعلى هذا الاعتبار قال…

المفردات في غريب القرآن — الراغب الأصفهاني

البطن: يقابل الظهر، ويعبر به عن داخل الشيء كما يعبر بالظاهر عن خارجه، ويعبر به عن الجهة السفلى، كما يعبر به عن العليا. واستعير في الأمور المعنوية نحو: هذا بطن الأمر، وبطن الوادي أيضا، تشبيها ببطن الإنسان. ومنه: ﴿وذروا ظاهر الإثم وباطنه﴾ [الأنعام: 120] فظاهره ما يطلع عليه الخلق، وباطنه ما يختص بعلمه تعالى.
