يقال: هاج البقل يهيج: اصفر وطاب، قال عز وجل: ثم يهيج فتراه مصفرا [الزمر/ 21] وأهيجت الأرض: صار فيها كذلك، وهاج الدم والفحل هيجا وهياجا، وهيجت الشر والحرب، والهيجاء: الحرب وقد يقصر، وهيجت البعير: أثرته.

قوله تعالى: ﴿ثم يهيج فتراه مصفرا﴾ [الزمر:21] أي ثم يطول. يقال: هاج البقل، أي طال واصفر. وأصل الهيجان شدة الحركة. وذلك كقولهم: هاج الفحل، وهاج البعير وهيجته: أثرته. وهاج الدم: إذا تموع. وهيجته وهجته بمعنى، وأنشد: [من الطويل]

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    Seest thou not that God Sends down rain from The sky, and leads it Through springs in the earth.? Then He causes to grow, Therewith, produce of various Colours: then it withers; Thou wilt see it grow yellow; Then He makes it Dry up and crumble away. Truly, in this, is A Message of remembrance to Men of understanding.

    Surah Az-Zumar, verse 39:21
  2. Each word opens its meaning.

    Know ye (all), that The life of this world Is but play and amusement, Pomp and mutual boasting And multiplying, (in rivalry) Among yourselves, riches And children. Here is a similitude: How rain and the growth Which it brings forth, delight (The hearts of) the tillers; Soon it withers; thou Wilt see it grow yellow; Then it becomes dry And crumbles away. But in the Hereafter Is a Penalty severe (For the devotees of wrong). And Forgiveness from God And (His) Good Pleasure (For the devotees of God). And what is the life Of this world, but Goods and chattels Of deception?

    Surah Al-Hadid, verse 57:20
