أربعة، وأربعون، وربع، ورباع كلها من أصل واحد، قال الله تعالى: ثلاثة رابعهم كلبهم
قوله تعالى: ﴿أربعين ليلة﴾ [البقرة: 51] الأربعون ونحوها جار مجرى جمع السلامة، وليس جمعا صناعيا لعدم سر... مذكورة في غير هذا، ولفساد المعنى في عشرين وثلاثين. وقد يعرب إعراب جمع التكسير كقوله: [من الوافر] 562 - وقد جاوزت حد الأربعينا.
Verses 1–2 of 2
(Some) say they were three, The dog being the fourth Among them; (others) say They were five, the dog Being the sixth,—doubtfully Guessing at the unknown; (Yet others) say they were Seven, the dog being the eighth. Say thou: "My Lord Knoweth best their number; It is but few that know Their (real case)." Enter not, Therefore, into controversies Concerning them, except On a matter that is clear, Nor consult any of them About (the affair of) the Sleepers.
Surah Al-Kahf, verse 18:22Seest thou not that God doth know (all) that is In the heavens and On earth? There is not A secret consultation Between three, but He Makes the fourth among them,— Nor between five but He makes the sixth,— Nor between fewer nor more, But He is in their midst, Wheresoever they be: In the end will He Tell them the truth Of their conduct, on the Day Of Judgment. For God Has full knowledge Of all things.
Surah Al-Mujadila, verse 58:7
