الزخرف: الزينة المزوقة، ومنه قيل للذهب:
قوله تعالى: ﴿وزخرفا﴾ [الزخرف: 35]، الزخرف: الزينة، وأصله الذهب ثم أطلق على كله ما يتزين به لأنه الأصل في الزينة. وقيل: الزخرف كمال حسن الشيء، يقال: زخرفته زخرفة.
Verses 1–4 of 4
Likewise did We make For every Messenger An enemy,—evil ones Among men and Jinns, Inspiring each other With flowery discourses By way of deception. If thy Lord had so planned, They would not have Done it: so leave them And their inventions alone.
Surah Al-An'am, verse 6:112The likeness of the life Of the Present is As the rain which We Send down from the skies: By its mingling arises The produce of the earth— Which provides food For men and animals: (It grows) till the earth Is clad with its golden Ornaments and is decked out (In beauty): the people to whom It belongs think they have All powers of disposal over it: There reaches it Our command By night or by day, And We make it Like a harvest clean-mown, As if it had not flourished Only the day before! Thus do We explain The Signs in detail For those who reflect.
Surah Yunus, verse 10:24"Or thou have a house Adorned with gold, Or thou mount a ladder Right into the skies. No, we shall not even believe In thy mounting until thou Send down to us a book That we could read." Say: "Glory to my Lord! Am I aught but a man,— An apostle?"
Surah Al-Isra, verse 17:93And also adornments Of gold. But all this Were nothing but conveniences Of the present life: The Hereafter, in the sight Of thy Lord, is For the Righteous.
Surah Az-Zukhruf, verse 43:35
