    http//haqeeqat.pk/roots/00.Tabweeb%20Part%202/04.%20Roots%20originating%20in%20Sura%20006/64.%20Midraran%20Daal%20Ra%20Ra/1.gif; and

    http//haqeeqat.pk/roots/00.Tabweeb%20Part%202/04.%20Roots%20originating%20in%20Sura%20006/64.%20Midraran%20Daal%20Ra%20Ra/2.gif

    Strange and amazing

    one means timely and abundant rain;

    while other means Pearl.

    What is common in them with reference to Concept in the Root?

        Root ذ و ق

        Words from this Root in the Grand Qur’ān

        a) Total occurrences 63

        b) No of constructions 33

        Nouns 3; Recurrence 5 Verbs 30; Recurrence 58

        Ibn Faris stated

        (مقاييس اللغة)

        الذال والواو والقاف أصلٌ واحد، وهو اختبار الشيء من جِهَةِ تَطَعُّمٍ، ثم يشتق منه مجازاً

        That it signifies examination, testing, trial of a thing from point of its inlay, taste, eating. Afterwards it is also used as figurative expression.

        Semantic Field Taste - sensory feeling

        In English taste is restricted to (WordNet)

        S (n) taste, gustation, sense of taste, gustatory modality (the faculty of distinguishing sweet, sour, bitter, and salty properties in the mouth) "his cold deprived him of his sense of taste"
        S (n) taste, tasting (a kind of sensing; distinguishing substances by means of the taste buds) "a wine tasting"

        ١اردو میں ہم اصل ذائقہ، خوش ذائقہ مستعمل ہے

        چیزوں کا مزہ بتانے والی قوت، لذت بتانے والی قوت، وہ حس جس کا تعلق چکھنے سے ہو۔

        Its usage in Grand Qur’ān is not restricted to gustatory modality but to all sensory feelings, like pain by corporal infliction and of pleasure and comfort. Skin is mentioned as the receptor, taster of Pain, corporeal infliction. It is also used as "The Taste of death".

        1. Corporeal infliction Painful - affect Skin Burn - Skins will be replaced -grafted to make them feel - sense - taste the punishment (456).

        2. The Taste of death;

        3. In the meaning of tasting eatables;

        4. In the meaning of tasting mercy

        Will someone like to research to find connection between four uses; scientific or otherwise figurative?

        Ayahs are mentioned under each sub head in this link

            The intention of each gambler is to become owner of other's wealth. Eventually he may become lethargic, dilapidated in undertaking efforts for economics.

            I have put all the Ayahs where it occurs. Please advise about the suitability of word choice in different contexts like gentle, smooth, convenient.

            Affect of gambling is given in Ayahs.

              Root س و د

              Words from this Root in the Grand Qur’ān

              a) Total occurrences 10

              b) No of constructions 9

              Noun 7; Recurrence 8; Verb 2

              Ibn Faris stated

              (مقاييس اللغة)

              السين والواو والدال أصلٌ واحد، وهو خلاف البياضِ في اللّونِ، ثم يحمل عليه ويشتقّ منه. فالسَّواد في اللّون معروف.

              That it is opposite of white, whiteness, oviparous in colour; and then other meanings are derived from it; black, blackness in colour is well known.

              Lane Lexicon He was, or became, possessed of glory, honour, dignity, eminence, exalted or elevated state, or nobility. It, and he, became أَسْوَد (S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ اسوادّ it, or he, became intensely so.

              Classical Lexicons

              Apparently the words stemming from this Root have widely divergent meanings of black colour and for referring a person for honour, dignity, eminence but later meanings do relate to the psyche of black colour. In color psychology, black's color meaning is symbolic of mystery, power, elegance, and sophistication. In contrast, the color meaning can also evoke emotions such as sadness and anger reflected by facial expression.

                Root ح ل م

                Words from this Root in the Grand Qur’ān

                a) Total occurrences 21

                b) No of constructions 11 All Nouns

                Ibn Faris stated

                (مقاييس اللغة)

                الحاء واللام والميم، أصولٌ ثلاثة الأول ترك العَجَلة، والثاني تثقُّب الشيء، والثالث رُؤية الشيء في المنام

                That it has three primary significations; firstly to leave hastiness, rashness, impetuosity; something becoming punctures, pierced, perforated or ignited; and lastly seeing something in the dreams.

                Another Classical Lexicon states

                حلم (لسان العرب)
                الحُلْمُ والحُلُم الرُّؤْيا، والجمع أَحْلام

                والحُلْمُ الاحتلام أيضاً، يجمع على الأحْلامِ

                والحِلْمُ، بالكسر الأَناةُ والعقل، وجمعه أَحْلام وحُلُومٌ.

                That it signifies dream; and puberty - experiencing wet dream; and with genitive middle radical it signifies forbearance, endurance and gentleness.

                Lane's Lexicon to have wet dream, have a vision, attain to puberty, forbearing, to gain wisdom, patient, prudent, imperturbable; The same term, al-hilm, is used for both puberty and wet dreams, marking wet dreams an indication of puberty. He was, or became, forbearing, or clement;] he forgave and concealed or he was, or became, moderate, gentle, deliberate, leisurely in his manner of proceeding or of deportment &c., patient as meaning contr. of hasty, grave, staid, sedate, or calm;

                Classical Lexicon

                In Grand Qur’ān it is used for

                1. In the meaning of attribute of forbearance, endurance, gentleness.

                2. In the meanings of dreams

                3. In the meaning of age of experiencing wet-dream - Semantic domain Stages of human life.

                Neuroscientists who study brainwaves may find the perception and semantic domain of this Root, which otherwise incorporates concepts apparently poles apart, quite interesting. All the three domains covered by the Root share the same state of low frequency and high amplitude brain waves.

                      A contributor can use any classical Arabic dictionary.

                      All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.
