قوله تعالى: ﴿فانتبذت به مكانا قصيا﴾ [مريم: 22] أي بعيدا، وأصله قصيو فأدغم. والأقصى: الأبعد، ومنه قوله تعالى: ﴿إلى المسجد الأقصى﴾ [الإسراء: 1] وهو بيت المقدس عبر عنه بذلك اعتبارا بمكان المخاطبين به من النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وأصحابه.

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    Remember ye were On the hither side Of the valley, and they On the farther side, And the caravan On lower ground than ye. Even if ye had made A mutual appointment To meet, ye would certainly: Have failed in the appointment: But (thus ye met), That God might accomplish A matter already enacted; That those who died might Die after a clear Sign (Had been given), and those who lived Might live after a Clear Sign (Had been given). And verily God is He who heareth And knoweth (all things).

    Surah Al-Anfal, verse 8:42
