Its root in the classical dictionaries
القرد جمعه قردة. قال تعالى: كونوا قردة خاسئين [البقرة/ 65] ، وقال: وجعل منهم القردة والخنازير [المائدة/ 60] ، قيل: جعل صورهم المشاهدة كصور القردة. وقيل: بل جعل أخلاقهم كأخلاقها وإن لم تكن صورتهم كصورتها. والقراد جمعه: قردان، والصوف القرد: المتداخل بعضه في بعض، ومنه قيل:
قوله تعالي: ﴿كونوا قردة﴾ [البقرة: 65] القردة جمع قرد، وهو هذا الحيوان المعروف، قيل: جعلوا مثل صور القردة حقيقة، وقيل: بل في أخلاقها وفسادها، وذلك أن القرد أخبث حيوان وأفسده.
