Its root in the classical dictionaries
المعرفة والعرفان: إدراك الشيء بتفكر وتدبر لأثره، وهو أخص من العلم، ويضاده الإنكار، ويقال: فلان يعرف الله ولا يقال: يعلم الله متعديا
قوله تعالى: ﴿الجنة عرفها لهم﴾ [محمد: 6] أي طيبها، من العرف وهو الطيب. وتقول العرب: طيب الله عرفك، أي رائحتك. وقيل عرفها لهم في الدنيا بوصف وصفها لهم، فإذا دخلوها عرفوها بتلك الأوصاف الحسنة بمعنى: ألهم كل أحد أن يعرف منزله في الجنة كما يعرف منزله في الدنيا مع اتساع تلك المنازل وكثرتها. وإذا الهم الطيور أن تهتدي…
And when there comes to them
A Book from God, confirming
What is with them,—although
From of old they had prayed
For victory against those
Without Faith,—when there comes.
To them that which they
(Should) have recognized,
They refuse to believe in it
But the curse of God
Is on those without Faith.
(Charity is) for those
In need, who, in God's cause
Are restricted (from travel),
And cannot move about
In the land, seeking
(For trade or work):
The ignorant man thinks,
Because of their modesty,
That they are free from want.
Thou shalt know them
By their (unfailing) mark:
They beg not importunately
From all and sundry.
And whatever of good
Ye give, be assured
God knoweth it well.
And when they listen
To the revelation received
By the Apostle, thou wilt
See their eyes overflowing
With tears, for they
Recognise the truth:
They pray: "Our Lord!
We believe; write us
Down among the witnesses.
Between them shall be
A veil, and on the Heights
Will be men
Who would know every one
By his marks: they will call
Out to the Companions
Of the Garden, "Peace on you":
They will not have entered,
But they will have
An assurance (thereof.)
The men on the Heights
Will call to certain men
Whom they will know
From their marks, saying:
"Of what profit to you
Were your hoards and your
Arrogant ways?
And (Joseph) told his servants
To put their stock-in-trade
(With which they had bartered)
Into their saddle-bags,
So they should know it only
When they returned to their people,
In order that they
Might come back.
When Our Clear Signs
Are rehearsed to them,
Thou wilt notice a denial
On the faces of the Unbelievers!
They nearly attack with violence
Those who rehearse Our Signs
To them. Say, "Shall I
Tell you of something
(Far) worse than these Signs?
It is the Fire (of Hell)!
God has promised it
To the Unbelievers!
And evil is that destination!"
O Prophet! Tell
Thy wives and daughters,
And the believing women,
That they should cast
Their outer garments over
Their persons (when abroad):
That is most convenient,
That they should be known
(As such) and not molested.
And God is Oft-Forgiving,
Most Merciful.
Had We so willed,
We could have shown them
Up to thee, and thou
Shouldst have known them
By their marks: but surely
Thou wilt know them
By the tone of their speech!
And God knows
All that ye do.
When the Prophet disclosed
A matter in confidence
To one of his consorts,
And she then divulged it
(To another), and God made it
Known to him, he confirmed
Part thereof and repudiated
A part. Then when he
Told her thereof, she said,
"Who told thee this?"
He said, "He told me
Who knows and is well-acquainted
(With all things)"
