his saying and in other than humans it reaches the ears and moves the ear muscles he means by that the nonhuman who has a prominent ear. and he only singled out the nonhuman who has an ear that he moves and not most people because humans do not have to move their head so that it is in line with every direction he wants with his ear and thus he is able to hear the sound from any direction and this is the case for the rest of what has an ear for example the horse is not able to move its head alone to where one of its ears is to the back and the other to the front. and if this is the case if this animal were not able to move its ears to the sides it would be difficult for it to hear many sounds. and for this reason the ear of most of this type of animal was created long so that when it is moved to a certain direction like the nightshade it restricts the incoming air with the sound. and this includes the other pairs that come after it that each one of them is divided upon its exit each individual of it into two parts the smaller of which disperses in the directions to the front.

قوله وفي غير الإنسان ينتهي إلى الأذنين فيحرك عضل الأذنين، يريد بذلك غير الإنسان مما له أذن بارزة. وإنما اختص غير الإنسان مما له أذن يحركها دون أكثر الناس، لأن الإنسان لا كلفة عليه في تحريك رأسه بحيث يحاذي كل جهة يريد بأذنه فيتمكن بذلك من سماع الصوت من أي جهة كانت ولو كذلك باقي ما له أذن فإن الفرس مثلا ليس يتمكن من تحريك رأسه بانفراده إلى حيث يصير أحد أذنيه إلى خلف والأخرى إلى قدام وإذا كان كذلك فلو لم يمكن هذا الحيوان أن يحرك أذنيه إلى الجهات تعذر عليه سماع كثير من الأصوات ولذلك خلقت أذن أكثر هذا النوع من الحيوان طويلة لتكون عند التحريك إلى جهة ما كالباذهنج يحصر الهواء الوارد بالصوت ويعم هذا والأزواج الأخر التي بعده، أن كل واحد منها ينقسم عند خروجه كل فرد منه إلى قسمين أصغرهما يتفرق في النواحي إلى قدام.

no reward do i ask of you for it my reward is only from the lord of the alamin .

وما أسألكم عليه من أجر إن أجري إلا على رب العالمين

so there is no contradiction in this. if it is said how did you know that what you have arrived at is knowledge related to the known as it is but rather it is ignorance that you thought was knowledge? we say if a denier denies the mathematical sciences what is said to him? is he not foolish in his mind? and it is said to him this indicates your lack of insight into mathematical matters. for if the one who studies geometry confines the premises and arranges them in the necessary form knowledge of the result is necessarily obtained in a way that is not disputed. thus is our answer in rational matters for if theoretical premises are arranged according to their conditions they provide knowledge of the result on the face of the earth that is not disputed. in it and the knowledge gained from the premises after their occurrence is necessary like the knowledge of the necessary premises that produce it. and if we wanted to reveal that to someone whose merchandise in the sciences is little then we would give him a geometric example then we would give him a rational example so that the cover would be removed for him and the hidden belief would be revealed. as for the geometric example it is that euclid drew in his book in the first figure of the first article a triangle and claimed that it was equilateral and he did not know that by the intuition of the mind but he claimed that he knew by proof by sight and his proof by the premises is that the straight lines coming out from the center of the circle to the circumference are equal from every this introduction is necessary because the circle is drawn with a compass on one opening but the straight line from the center to the circle is the opening of the compass and it is one in the sides.

فهذا لا تناقض فيه فان قيل وبم عرفتم ان ما وصلتم اليه علم متعلق بالمعلوم على ما هو به بل هو جهل ظننتموه علما قلنا ولو انكر العلوم الحسابية منكر فماذا يقال له او ليس يسفه في عقله ويقال له هذا يدل على قلة بصيرتك بالحسابيات فإن الناظر في الهندسة اذا حصر المقدمات ورتبها على الشكل الواجب يحصل العلم بالنتيجة ضرورة على وجه لا يتمارى فيه فهكذا جوابنا في المعقولات فان المقدمات النظرية اذا رتبت على شروطها افادت العلم بالنتيجة على وجه الارض لا يتمارى فيه ويكون العلم المستفاد من المقدمات بعد حصولها ضروريا كالعلم بالمقدمات الضرورية المنتجه له وإن اردنا أن نكشف ذلك لمن قلت بضاعته في العلوم فنضرب له مثالا هندسيا ثم نضرب له مثالا عقليا لينكشف له الغطاء وينجلي عن عقيدته الخفاء اما المثال الهندسي فهو ان إقليدس رسم في مصنفه في الشكل الأول من المقالة الأولى مثلثا وادعى انه متساوي الاضلاع ولا يعرف ذلك ببديهة العقل ولكنه ادعى انه يعرف بالبرهان نظرا وبرهانه بمقدمات ان الخطوط المستقيمة الخارجة من مركز الدائرة الى المحيط متساوية من كل جانب وهذه المقدمة ضرورية إذ الدائرة ترسم بالبركار على فتح واحد وانما الخط المستقيم من المركز الى الدائرة هوفتح البركار وهو واحد في الجوانب

for the petitioner and the deprived and those who believe in the day of recompense

للسائل والمحروم والذين يصدقون بيوم الدين

when god replaces one revelation with another he knows best what to reveal. but they say you have falsely invented it. most people are ignorant.

وإذا بدلنا آية مكان آية والله أعلم بما ينزل قالوا إنما أنت مفتر بل أكثرهم لا يعلمون

we verily have displayed in this quran that they may take heed but it increaseth them in naught save aversion.

ولقد صرفنا في هذا القرآن ليذكروا وما يزيدهم إلا نفورا

and why did ye not when ye heard it say? it is not right of us to speak of this glory to allah! this is a most serious slander!

ولولا إذ سمعتموه قلتم ما يكون لنا أن نتكلم بهذا سبحانك هذا بهتان عظيم

so had many an earlier people gone astray and we had sent admonishers to them.

ولقد ضل قبلهم أكثر الأولين ولقد أرسلنا فيهم منذرين

have seen women and learned of their secrets what hardly anyone else knows because i was raised in their laps and grew up in their hands and i did not know anyone other than them and i did not sit with men except when i was in the prime of youth and when my face was beginning to blossom and they taught me the quran and recited to me many poems and trained me in calligraphy and my toil and mental effort since my first understanding when i was very young was nothing but knowing their reasons searching for their news and obtaining that. i do not forget anything that i see from them and the origin of that is an intense jealousy that i was born with and a bad opinion of them that i was born with so i overlooked their reasons for more than a little and that will come explained in its chapters god willing.

ولقد شاهدت النساء وعلمت من أسرارهن ما لا يكاد يعلمه غيري، لأني ربيت في حجورهن، ونشأت بين أيديهن، ولم أعرف غيرهن، ولا جالست الرجال إلا وأنا في حد الشباب وحين تبقل وجهي؛ وهن علمتني القرآن وروينني كثيرا من الأشعار ودربنني في الخط، ولم يكن وكدي وإعمال ذهني مذ أول فهمي وأنا في سن الطفولة جدا إلا تعرف أسبابهن، والبحث عن أخبارهن، وتحصيل ذلك. وأنا لا أنسى شيئا مما أراه منهن، وأصل ذلك غيرة شديدة طبعت عليها، وسوء ظن في جهتهن فطرت به، فأشرفت من أسبابهن على غير قليل، وسيأتي ذلك مفسرا في أبوابه، إن شاء الله تعالى.

we know that the arabs were particularly interested in meteorology and that abu hanifas book is considered one of the most important books on this subject. it is not unlikely that it could be said that a book on this subject was attributed to ibn qutaybah. abu hanifa aldinawari was never famous as a historian as he is not among the titles by which one is called a historian. he is often called a botanist or a linguist and sometimes also an astronomer but he was never called a historian. we know the names of ibn qutaybahs books on astrology.

ونحن نعرف أن العرب اهتموا بالأنواء بصورة خاصة، وأن كتاب أبى حنيفة يعد من امهات الكتب فى هذا الفن. فلا يستبعد أن يقال إن كتابا من هذا الموضوع هو الذى عزى إلى ابن قتيبة. إن أبا حنيفة الدينورى لم يشتهر أبدا كمؤرخ، إذ ليس فى الألقاب التى يدعى بها لقب المؤرخ؛ فكثيرا ما يسمى نباتيا أو لغويا، وأحيانا أيضا فلكيا ولم بك يسمى مؤرخا قط. إنا نعرف أسماء كتب ابن قتيبة فى علم النجوم.

and give not unto the weakwitted the substance which allah made a stay for you but feed them there out sand clothe them and say unto them a reputable saying.

ولا تؤتوا السفهاء أموالكم التي جعل الله لكم قياما وارزقوهم فيها واكسوهم وقولوا لهم قولا معروفا

why then were there not among the generations before you upright men who would speak out against the corruption on earth except for the few whom we saved? but the wrongdoers pursued their worldly pleasures and thus became guilty.

فلولا كان من القرون من قبلكم أولو بقية ينهون عن الفساد في الأرض إلا قليلا ممن أنجينا منهم واتبع الذين ظلموا ما أترفوا فيه وكانوا مجرمين

then we revealed to you follow the faith of ibrahim the upright one and he was not of the polytheists.

ثم أوحينا إليك أن اتبع ملة إبراهيم حنيفا وما كان من المشركين

but when the great calamity comes

فإذا جاءت الصاخة

your lord knows best what is in your souls. if you are righteous then verily he is ever most forgiving to those who turn to him in repentance.

ربكم أعلم بما في نفوسكم إن تكونوا صالحين فإنه كان للأوابين غفورا

do you then take this discourse in light esteem and your portion in it is simply that you denounce it as false?

أفبهذا الحديث أنتم مدهنون وتجعلون رزقكم أنكم تكذبون

and if we give man a taste of mercy from us and then withdraw it from him verily he is despairing ungrateful.

ولئن أذقنا الإنسان منا رحمة ثم نزعناها منه إنه ليئوس كفور

he said i am but a meenger from thy lord that i may bestow on thee a boy pure.

قال إنما أنا رسول ربك لأهب لك غلاما زكيا

allah saith this is a day in which their truthfulness profiteth the truthful for theirs are gardens underneath which rivers flow wherein they are secure for ever allah taking pleasure in them and they in him. that is the great triumph.

قال الله هذا يوم ينفع الصادقين صدقهم لهم جنات تجري من تحتها الأنهار خالدين فيها أبدا رضي الله عنهم ورضوا عنه ذلك الفوز العظيم

till when he came to the setting of the sun it appeared to him that it was setting in a dark turbid sea and nearby he found a people . we said o thou twohorned one! thou mayest either cause to suffer or treat them with kindness!

حتى إذا بلغ مغرب الشمس وجدها تغرب في عين حمئة ووجد عندها قوما قلنا يا ذا القرنين إما أن تعذب وإما أن تتخذ فيهم حسنا

the seven skies the earth and all that lies within them sing hallelujas to him. there is nothing that does not chant his praises but you do not understand their hymns of praise. he is verily clement and forgiving.

تسبح له السماوات السبع والأرض ومن فيهن وإن من شيء إلا يسبح بحمده ولكن لا تفقهون تسبيحهم إنه كان حليما غفورا

we shall enable thee to recite and then thou shalt not forget save that which allah may will. verily he knoweth the public and that which is hidden.

سنقرئك فلا تنسى إلا ما شاء الله إنه يعلم الجهر وما يخفى

those who were we to bestow authority on them in the land will establish prayers render zakah enjoin good and forbid evil. the end of all matters rests with allah.

الذين إن مكناهم في الأرض أقاموا الصلاة وآتوا الزكاة وأمروا بالمعروف ونهوا عن المنكر ولله عاقبة الأمور

he it is who sent his apostle with guidance and the religion of truth that he might cause it to prevail over all religions though the polytheists may be averse.

هو الذي أرسل رسوله بالهدى ودين الحق ليظهره على الدين كله ولو كره المشركون

as an example to those who are bent on denying the truth god cited the wife of noah and the wife of lot who were married to two of our righteous servants but who betrayed them. so they could not help them against god and they were told enter the fire along with all the others.

ضرب الله مثلا للذين كفروا امرأت نوح وامرأت لوط كانتا تحت عبدين من عبادنا صالحين فخانتاهما فلم يغنيا عنهما من الله شيئا وقيل ادخلا النار مع الداخلين

enjoyment in this worldand thereafter unto us they must return and then we shall let them taste suffering severe as an outcome of their persistent denial of the truth.

متاع في الدنيا ثم إلينا مرجعهم ثم نذيقهم العذاب الشديد بما كانوا يكفرون

yet you dwelt in the dwellings of those who had exceeded themselves and it was evident to you how we had dealt with them and we held out examples before you.

وسكنتم في مساكن الذين ظلموا أنفسهم وتبين لكم كيف فعلنا بهم وضربنا لكم الأمثال

forbidden to you are almaytah blood the flesh of swine and that which has been slaughtered as a sacrifice for other than allah and that which has been killed by strangling or by a violent blow or by a headlong fall or by the goring of horns and that which has been eaten by a wild animal unless you are able to slaughter it and that which is sacrificed on annusub . also is to make decisions with alazlam that is fisq . this day those who disbelieved have given up all hope of your religion so fear them not but fear me. this day i have perfected your religion for you completed my favor upon you and have chosen for you islam as your religion. but as for him who is forced by severe hunger with no inclination to sin then surely allah is oftforgiving most merciful.

حرمت عليكم الميتة والدم ولحم الخنزير وما أهل لغير الله به والمنخنقة والموقوذة والمتردية والنطيحة وما أكل السبع إلا ما ذكيتم وما ذبح على النصب وأن تستقسموا بالأزلام ذلكم فسق اليوم يئس الذين كفروا من دينكم فلا تخشوهم واخشون اليوم أكملت لكم دينكم وأتممت عليكم نعمتي ورضيت لكم الإسلام دينا فمن اضطر في مخمصة غير متجانف لإثم فإن الله غفور رحيم

he said i certainly hate what you practice.

قال إني لعملكم من القالين

enter the gates of hell to stay therein forever. the abode of the arrogant is evil.

ادخلوا أبواب جهنم خالدين فيها فبئس مثوى المتكبرين

say who has forbidden the ornament of god which he brought forth for his servants and the good things of his providing? say these on the day of resurrection shall be exclusively for those who believed in this present life. so we distinguish the signs for a people who know.

قل من حرم زينة الله التي أخرج لعباده والطيبات من الرزق قل هي للذين آمنوا في الحياة الدنيا خالصة يوم القيامة كذلك نفصل الآيات لقوم يعلمون

he congratulated them until he helped them whether in the fish with the weapon the swagem 3

هنأ ناهم حتى أعان عليهم سوا فى السماك ذى السلاح السواجم ٣

almadaini said uwaif alqawafi came to the door of umar ibn abd alaziz may god be pleased with him and was kept away for a few days. then hubaysh umars permit holder asked permission to enter. when he stood before him he said

قال المدائني أتى عويف القوافي باب عمر بن عبد العزيز رضي الله عنه، فحجب أياما، ثم استأذن له حبيش صاحب إذن عمر، فلما قام بين يديه قال

and if they belie thee then surely those before them have also belied. their apostles came unto them with evidences and scriptures and a book luminous.

وإن يكذبوك فقد كذب الذين من قبلهم جاءتهم رسلهم بالبينات وبالزبر وبالكتاب المنير

and for each of them we put forward examples and each we brought to utter ruin .

وكلا ضربنا له الأمثال وكلا تبرنا تتبيرا

which of the favours of your lord will you twain – you men and jinn – then deny?

فبأي آلاء ربكما تكذبان

they bit off two of her fingers and she uncovered her mask and lifted her tail to be a deterrent to them and a breaker of their resolve with their trampling on his ribs after his death and their throwing his naked body on the garbage after dragging it and it is the carrot that the messenger of god may god bless him and grant him peace made a match for his daughters wives and wives after the cursing thirst severe confinement and prevention of food with his protesting to them and his silencing of them and with their agreement that the blood of the immoral is forbidden like the blood of the believer except for the one who apostatized after becoming a muslim or committed adultery after being married or killed a believer intentionally or a man who attacked people with his sword so their abstention from him was his ruin and with their agreement that no one from this nation who turned away should be killed nor should any of its wounded be finished off.

أطنوا إصبعين من أصابعها، وقد كشفت عن قناعها، ورفعت عن ذيلها؛ ليكون ذلك ردعا لهم، وكاسرا من عزمهم؛ مع وطئهم في أضلاعه بعد موته، وإلقائهم على المزبلة جسده مجردا بعد سحبه، وهي الجزرة التي جعلها رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كفوا لبناته وأياماه وعقائله؛ بعد السب والتعطيش، والحصر الشديد، والمنع من القوت؛ مع احتجاجه عليهم، وإفحامه لهم، ومع اجتماعهم على أن دم الفاسق حرام كدم المؤمن، إلا من ارتد بعد إسلام، أو زنى بعد إحصان، أو قتل مؤمنا على عمد، أو رجل عدا على الناس بسيفه فكان في امتناعهم منه عطبه؛ ومع إجماعهم على ألا يقتل من هذه الأمة مول، ولا يجهز منها على جريح.

but had it not been that he was of those who glorify he would certainly have tarried in its belly to the day when they are raised.

فلولا أنه كان من المسبحين للبث في بطنه إلى يوم يبعثون

what is revealed to you is certainly a glorious quran

بل هو قرآن مجيد

and chant the koran very distinctly behold we shall cast upon thee a weighty word surely the first part of the night is heavier in tread more upright in speech surely in the day thou hast long business.

نصفه أو انقص منه قليلا أو زد عليه ورتل القرآن ترتيلا إنا سنلقي عليك قولا ثقيلا إن ناشئة الليل هي أشد وطئا وأقوم قيلا إن لك في النهار سبحا طويلا

and when we took your covenant and raised over you the mount take what we have given you with determination and listen. they said we hear and disobey. and their hearts absorbed the calf because of their disbelief. say how wretched is that which your faith enjoins upon you if you should be believers.

وإذ أخذنا ميثاقكم ورفعنا فوقكم الطور خذوا ما آتيناكم بقوة واسمعوا قالوا سمعنا وعصينا وأشربوا في قلوبهم العجل بكفرهم قل بئسما يأمركم به إيمانكم إن كنتم مؤمنين

or do you want to ask your messenger as musa was asked before and he who changes faith for disbelief verily he has gone astray from the right way.

أم تريدون أن تسألوا رسولكم كما سئل موسى من قبل ومن يتبدل الكفر بالإيمان فقد ضل سواء السبيل

noah called out to his lord saying my lord my son was a part of my family. your promise was surely true. you are the most just of all judges.

ونادى نوح ربه فقال رب إن ابني من أهلي وإن وعدك الحق وأنت أحكم الحاكمين

on the day when we gather them all together we shall say to those who ascribe partners stay where you are—you and your partners! then we shall set them apart from one another and their partners will say it was not us that you worshipped.

ويوم نحشرهم جميعا ثم نقول للذين أشركوا مكانكم أنتم وشركاؤكم فزيلنا بينهم وقال شركاؤهم ما كنتم إيانا تعبدون

on the authority of anas bin malik that the messenger of god said do not use pomegranate or basil sticks as siwak for they cause the sweat of leprosy to flow.

وعن أنس بن مالك أن رسول الله قال لا تستاكوا بعود الرمان، ولا الريحان فإنه يسقي عرق الجذام .

and noahs folk when they denied the messengers we drowned them and made of them a portent for mankind. we have prepared a painful doom for evildoers.

وقوم نوح لما كذبوا الرسل أغرقناهم وجعلناهم للناس آية وأعتدنا للظالمين عذابا أليما

their apostles answered them true we are nothing but mortal men like yourselves but god bestows his favour upon whomever he wills of his servants. withal it is not within our power to bring you a proof unless it be by gods leaveand it is in god that all believers must place their trust.

قالت لهم رسلهم إن نحن إلا بشر مثلكم ولكن الله يمن على من يشاء من عباده وما كان لنا أن نأتيكم بسلطان إلا بإذن الله وعلى الله فليتوكل المؤمنون

and if they separate god will enrich each from his abundance. god is bounteous and wise.

وإن يتفرقا يغن الله كلا من سعته وكان الله واسعا حكيما

for umrah with the commander of the faithful uthman may god be pleased with him. when we returned we were in alarj. my husband looked at me and i looked at him. he liked me as much as i liked him so he jumped on me. uthmans caravan passed by us and i crouched down and i was overcome by what happens to the daughters of adam. the caravan was frightened and there were five hundred of them and no two caravans have met since then.

للعمرة مع أمير المؤمنين عثمان رضي الله عنه، فلما رجعنا فكنا بالعرج نظر إلي زوجي ونظرت إليه، فأعجبه مني ما أعجبني منه فواثبني، ومرت بنا عير عثمان فقبعت قبعة وأدركني ما يصيب بنات آدم، فنفرت العير وكانت خمس مائة فما التقى منها بعيران إلى الساعة.

they replied hood you have not brought us a clear sign. we will not forsake our gods because of what you say. we do not believe you.

قالوا يا هود ما جئتنا ببينة وما نحن بتاركي آلهتنا عن قولك وما نحن لك بمؤمنين

and the heaven will split asunder – so on that day it will be unstable.

وانشقت السماء فهي يومئذ واهية

and question thou our messengers whom we sent before thee did we appoint any deities other than most gracious to be worshipped?

واسأل من أرسلنا من قبلك من رسلنا أجعلنا من دون الرحمن آلهة يعبدون

he said ye shall sow seven years as usual but that which ye reap leave it in the ear all save a little which ye eat.

قال تزرعون سبع سنين دأبا فما حصدتم فذروه في سنبله إلا قليلا مما تأكلون

the wife of pharaoh said here is a delight of the eye to me and to you. do not kill him. maybe he will prove useful for us or we may adopt him as a son. they were unaware of the end of it all.

وقالت امرأت فرعون قرت عين لي ولك لا تقتلوه عسى أن ينفعنا أو نتخذه ولدا وهم لا يشعرون

they will ask you about the mountains. tell them my lord will grind them to powder

ويسألونك عن الجبال فقل ينسفها ربي نسفا

and do not consume one anothers wealth by unjust means nor offer it as bribes to the officials in order to consume part of other peoples wealth illicitly while you know.

ولا تأكلوا أموالكم بينكم بالباطل وتدلوا بها إلى الحكام لتأكلوا فريقا من أموال الناس بالإثم وأنتم تعلمون

how many habitations that were sinful have we demolished utterly and raised other people after them.

وكم قصمنا من قرية كانت ظالمة وأنشأنا بعدها قوما آخرين

and khader ghassan the sons of jafna the kings alghassani said

وخضر غسان بنو جفنة الملوك؛ قال الغساني

they said indeed these are two magicians who want to drive you out of your land with their magic and do away with your most exemplary way.

قالوا إن هذان لساحران يريدان أن يخرجاكم من أرضكم بسحرهما ويذهبا بطريقتكم المثلى

why does he refuse to let me in when he saw me leaving his doors with empty hands?

وما باله يأبى دخولي وقد رأى خروجي من أبوابه ويدي صفر

is it then he who laid the foundation of his building on piety to allah and his good pleasure better or he who laid the foundation of his building on an undetermined brink of a precipice ready to crumble down so that it crumbled to pieces with him into the fire of hell. and allah guides not the people who are the zalimun .

أفمن أسس بنيانه على تقوى من الله ورضوان خير أم من أسس بنيانه على شفا جرف هار فانهار به في نار جهنم والله لا يهدي القوم الظالمين

we know indeed what the earth diminishes of them and with us is a writing that preserves.

قد علمنا ما تنقص الأرض منهم وعندنا كتاب حفيظ

so o muslims if they are unable to reply to this challenge of yours then know well that it is sent down only with the knowledge of allah and that except him there is no real god so will you now accept?

فإلم يستجيبوا لكم فاعلموا أنما أنزل بعلم الله وأن لا إله إلا هو فهل أنتم مسلمون

he said and who despairs of the mercy of his lord but the erring ones?

قال ومن يقنط من رحمة ربه إلا الضالون
