قال تعالى: هل من محيص
قوله تعالى: ﴿ما لنا من محيص﴾ [إبراهيم:21] المحيص: المهرب والمعدل. يقال: حاص عن الحق أي مال عنه إلى شدة ومكروه، وأصله من قولهم: وقع في حيص بيص. وحيص بيص أي شدة شديدة. وتركت البلاد حيص بيص: أي منقلبة ظهرا لبطن، كناية عن اختلاف أهلها. وفي حديث أبي جبير: "وجعلتم الأرض عليه حيص بيص" أي ضيقة.
