Its root in the classical dictionaries

قوله تعالى: ﴿ويهيئ لكم من أمركم مرفقا﴾ [الكهف: 16] أي ما يرفقون به، وفيه وفي العضو المعروف لغتان "مرفق"؛ بفتح الميم وكسر الفاء والعكس، وقد قرئ بهما فصيحا. قوله: ﴿وساءت مرتفقا﴾ [الكهف: 29] قال ابن عرفة: مجتمعا، وقال غيره: وساءت النار منزلا يرتفق به. وقيل: المرتفق: ما يتكأ عليه.

عمدة الحفاظ في تفسير أشرف الألفاظ — السمين الحلبي

الراء والفاء والقاف أصل واحد يدل على موافقة ومقاربة بلا عنف. فالرفق: خلاف العنف; يقال رفقت أرفق. وفي الحديث: " «إن الله جل ثناؤه يحب الرفق في الأمر كله» ".

Verses 1–1 of 1

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    O ye who believe! When ye prepare For prayer, wash Your faces, and your hands (And arms) to the elbows; Rub your heads (with water); And (wash) your feet To the ankles. If ye are in a state Of ceremonial impurity, Bathe your whole body. But if ye are ill, Or on a journey, Or one of you cometh From offices of nature, Or ye have been In contact with women, And ye find no water, Then take for yourselves Clean sand or earth, And rub therewith Your faces and hands. God doth not wish To place you in a difficulty, But to make you clean, And to complete His favour to you, That ye may be grateful.

    Surah Al-Ma'idah, verse 5:6
