Its root in the classical dictionaries
الفرق يقارب الفلق لكن الفلق يقال اعتبارا بالانشقاق، والفرق يقال اعتبارا بالانفصال. قال تعالى: وإذ فرقنا بكم البحر
قوله تعالى: ﴿وما أنزلنا على عبدنا يوم الفرقان﴾] الأنفال:41 [قيل: هو يوم بدر، وذلك أنه فرق فيه بين الحق والباطل، وتبين أن دين الله هو الغالب. فالفرقان مصدر فرق يفرق، وأصله في الأعيان نحو: فرقت بين الإناءين. وسمي يوم بدر بيوم الفرقان لأنه أول يوم حصل فيه الفرق بين الحق والباطل. وتقديره تقدير رجل قنعان أي يقنع به في…
And hold fast,
All together, by the Rope
Which God (stretches out
For you), and be not divided
Among yourselves;
And remember with gratitude
God's favour on you;
For ye were enemies
And He joined your hearts
In love, so that by His Grace,
Ye became brethren;
And ye were on the brink
Of the Pit of Fire,
And He saved you from it.
Thus doth God make
His Signs clear to you:
That ye may be guided.
Verily, this is My Way,
Leading straight: follow it:
Follow not (other) paths:
They will scatter you about
From His (great) Path:
Thus doth He command you,
That ye may be righteous.
The same religion has He
Established for you as that
Which He enjoined on Noah—
The which We have sent
By inspiration to thee—
And that which We enjoined
On Abraham, Moses, and Jesus:
Namely, that ye should remain
Steadfast in Religion, and make
No divisions therein:
To those who worship
Other things than God,
Hard is the (way)
To which thou callest them,
God chooses to Himself
Those whom He pleases,
And guides to Himself
Those who turn (to Him).
And they became divided
Only after knowledge
Reached them,—through selfish
Envy as between themselves.
Had it not been
For a Word that
Went forth before
From thy Lord,
(Tending) to a Term appointed,
The matter would have
Been settled between them:
But truly those who have
Inherited the Book after them
Are in suspicious (disquieting)
Doubt concerning it.
