النخل معروف، وقد يستعمل في الواحد والجمع. قال تعالى: كأنهم أعجاز نخل منقعر
قوله تعالى: ﴿والنخل﴾ [ق: 10] النخل معروف. وهو اسم جنس يفرق بين واحده وجمعه بالتاء. ويذكر ويؤنث. فمن التذكير قوله ﴿أعجاز نخل منقعر﴾ [القمر: 20] ومن التأنيث ﴿أعجاز نخل خاوية﴾ [الحاقة: 7] ويجمع على نخيل أيضا. ولكرمها عندهم اشتقوا من لفظها ما يدل على اصطفاء الشيء. يقال: نخلت الشيء وانتخلته. ومنه: نخل الدقيق.

It is He Who sendeth down Rain from the skies: With it We produce Vegetation of all kinds: From some We produce Green (crops), out of which We produce grain, Heaped up (at harvest); Out of the date-palm And its sheaths (or spathes) (Come) clusters of dates Hanging low and near: And (then there are) gardens Of grapes, and olives, And pomegranates, Each similar (in kind) Yet different (in variety): When they begin to bear fruit, Feast your eyes with the fruit And the ripeness thereof.
