Its root in the classical dictionaries
الدعاء كالنداء، إلا أن النداء قد يقال بيا، أو أيا، ونحو ذلك من غير أن يضم إليه الاسم، والدعاء لا يكاد يقال إلا إذا كان معه الاسم، نحو: يا فلان، وقد يستعمل كل واحد منهما موضع الآخر. قال تعالى: كمثل الذي ينعق بما لا يسمع إلا دعاء ونداء [البقرة/ 171] ، ويستعمل استعمال التسمية، نحو: دعوت ابني زيدا، أي: سميته، قال تعالى:…
قوله تعالى: ﴿دعوا الله﴾ [يونس: 22]، أي استغاثوا به. قيل: والدعاء كالنداء إلا أن النداء قد يقال إذا قيل: "يا" و "أيا"، وإن لم يضم معه اسم. والدعاء لا يكاد يقال إلا ومعه اسم المدعو نحو: يا فلان. وقد يقع كل منهما موقع الآخر، ويستعمل استعمال التسمية فيتعدى تعديتها لاثنين إلى ثانيها بجزء الجزء. قال الشاعر: [من الطويل]
