الكبير والصغير من الأسماء المتضايفة التي تقال عند اعتبار بعضها ببعض، فالشيء قد يكون صغيرا في جنب شيء، وكبيرا في جنب غيره، ويستعملان في الكمية المتصلة كالأجسام، وذلك كالكثير والقليل، وفي الكمية المنفصلة كالعدد، وربما يتعاقب الكثير والكبير على شيء واحد بنظرين مختلفين نحو: قل فيهما إثم كبير [البقرة/ 219] و: كثير قرئ…
قوله تعالى: ﴿وإن كان كبر عليك إعراضهم﴾ [الأنعام: 35] أي صعب وشق. قوله: ﴿وإنها لكبيرة﴾ [البقرة: 45] أي شاقة. ثم إن الكبر والصغر اسمان متضايفان باعتبار بعضها ببعض، فرب شيء يكون كبيرا بالنسبة لما دونه، صغيرا بالنسبة لما فرقه، ويستعملان في الكمية المتصلة كما في الأجسام نحو: الجمل أكبر من الفرس، كالقلة والكثرة في…
Verses 1–20 of 40
They ask thee Concerning fighting In the Prohibited Month. Say: "Fighting therein Is a grave (offence); But graver is it In the sight of God To prevent access To the path of God, To deny Him, To prevent access To the Sacred Mosque, And drive out its members. Tumult and oppression Are worse than slaughter. Nor will they cease Fighting you until They turn you back From your faith If they can. And if any of you Turn back from their faith And die in unbelief, Their works will bear no fruit In this life And in the Hereafter; They will be Companions of the Fire And will abide therein.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:217They ask thee Concerning wine and gambling. Say: "In them is great sin, And some profit, for men; But the sin is greater Than the profit." They ask thee how much They are to spend; Say: "What is beyond Your needs." Thus doth God Make clear to you His Signs: in order that Ye may consider—
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:219O ye who believe! When ye deal with each other, In transactions involving Future obligations In a fixed period of time, Reduce them to writing Let a scribe write down Faithfully as between The parties: let not the scribe Refuse to write: as God Has taught him, So let him write. Let him who incurs The liability dictate, But let him fear His Lord God, And not diminish Aught of what he owes. If the party liable Is mentally deficient, Or weak, or unable Himself to dictate, Let his guardian Dictate faithfully. And get two witnesses, Out of your own men, And if there are not two men, Then a man and two women, Such as ye choose, For witnesses, So that if one of them errs, The other can remind her. The witnesses Should not refuse When they are called on (For evidence). Disdain not to reduce To writing (your contract) For a future period, Whether it be small Or big: it is juster In the sight of God, More suitable as evidence, And more convenient To prevent doubts Among yourselves But if it be a transaction Which ye carry out On the spot among yourselves, There is no blame on you If ye reduce it not To writing. But take witnesses Whenever ye make A commercial contract; And let neither scribe Nor witness suffer harm. If ye do (such harm), It would be wickedness In you. So fear God; For it is God That teaches you. And God is well acquainted With all things.

As to those women On whose part ye fear Disloyalty and ill-conduct, Admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); But if they return to obedience, Seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For God is Most High, Great (above you all).
