الميل: العدول عن الوسط إلى أحد الجانبين، ويستعمل في الجور، وإذا استعمل في الأجسام فإنه يقال فيما كان خلقة ميل، وفيما كان عرضا ميل، يقال: ملت إلى فلان: إذا عاونته.

قوله تعالى: ﴿فلا تميلوا﴾ [النساء:129] أي ولا تجوروا، وأصل الميل العدول من جهة الوسط إلى أحد الجانبين، فاستعمل في الجور مجازا، قيل: وإذا استعمل في الأجسام فإنه يقال فيما كان في خلقه ميل- بالفتح- وفيما كان عرضا ميل- بالسكون ويقال- ملت إلى فلان، أي أحببته وعاونته. وملت عليه، أي تحاملت.

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    God doth wish To turn to you, But the wish of those Who follow their lusts Is that ye should turn Away (from Him), Far, far away.

  2. Each word opens its meaning.

    When thou (O Apostle) Art with them, and standest To lead them in prayer, Let one party of them Stand up (in prayer) with thee, Taking their arms with them: When they finish Their prostrations, let them Take their position in the rear. And let the other party come up Which hath not yet prayed— And let them pray with thee, Taking all precautions, And bearing arms: The Unbelievers wish, If ye were negligent Of your arms and your baggage, To assault you in a single rush. But there is no blame on you If ye put away your arms Because of the inconvenience Of rain or because ye are ill; But take (every) precaution For yourselves. For the Unbelievers God hath prepared A humiliating punishment.

    Surah An-Nisa, verse 4:102
  3. Each word opens its meaning.

    Ye are never able To be fair and just As between women, Even if it is Your ardent desire: But turn not away (From a woman) altogether, So as to leave her (as it were) Hanging (in the air). If ye come to a friendly Understanding, and practise Self-restraint, God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

    Surah An-Nisa, verse 4:129
