الضيق: ضد السعة، ويقال: الضيق أيضا، والضيقة يستعمل في الفقر والبخل والغم ونحو ذلك. قال تعالى: وضاق بهم ذرعا
قوله تعالي: ﴿ولا تك في ضيق مما يمكرون﴾ [النحل: 127]. الضيق والضيق- بالفتح والكسر- ضد السعة. وغلب استعمال الضيقة في الفقر والبخل والغم ونحو ذلك. وقال ابن عرفة: ضاق الرجل: بخل، وأضاق: افتقر، كأنه صار ذا ضيقة.
