المفردات في غريب القرآن — الراغب الأصفهاني

قوله تعالى: ﴿نعم﴾ [الأعراف: 44] نعم: حرف جواب وتصديق، ويكون جوابا للنفي والإثبات؛ يقال: ما قام زيد، فيقال: نعم، أي ما قام. وقام زيد، فيقال: نعم، أي قام بخلاف بلى فإنها لا يجاب بها إلا للنفي كما تقدم. ويجوز كسر العين، وهي لغة قرأ بها الكسائي ويجوز إبدال عينها حاء.
