حشر

Root entry · 1 derived lemma

1 حَشَرَ ذ , aor. حَشُرَ and حَشِرَ , (S, Msb, K,) the former of which aors. is found in the seven readings of the Kur, (Msb,) inf. n. حَشْرٌ, (S, Msb, K,) He congregated, or collected together, (S, Msb, K,) men: (S, Msb:) or he congregated them, or collected them together, and drove them: (Msb, TA:) he made them to go forth, collected together, from one place to another: (Bd in lix. 2:) he, or it, compelled them to emigrate: (K, * TA: [in the CK الخَلَاآءُ is put by mistake for الجَلَاءُ, the explanation of the inf. n.:]) and [simply] he drove towards a place or quarter. (TA.) Hence يَوْمُ الحَشْرِ (tropical:) [ The day of congregation, &c.; meaning] the day of resurrection: (S, * TA:) [see also مَحْشِرٌ:] and سُورَةُ الحَشْرِ (tropical:) [ The Chapter of the Compulsion to emigration; which is the fifty-ninth chapter of the Kur-an]. (TA.) It is said by most of the expositors of the Kur that the wild animals and other beasts, and even the flies, will be collected together (تُحْشَرُ) for retaliation; and they cite a trad. on this subject. (TA.) So in the Kur [lxxxi. 5], وَ اـِذَا الوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ And when the wild animals shall be collected together, (Bd, Jel,) from every quarter, (Bd,) after resurrection; (Jel;) or raised to life, (Bd,) for the purpose of their retaliating, one upon another; after which they shall return to dust: (Bd, Jel:) or the meaning is, shall die, (Az, S,) in the present world; accord. to some: (Az:) and thus says 'Ikrimeh, (S, TA,) on the authority of I'Ab, (TA,) as is related by Sa'eed Ibn-Masrook: (S, TA:) but accord. to some, the two meanings are nearly the same; for each denotes collection. (TA.) حَشْرٌ also signifies The going forth with a people fleeing or hastening or dispersing themselves in war; when used absolutely. (TA.) ― -b2- حَشَرَتْهُمُ السَّنَةُ, aor. حَشُرَ and حَشِرَ (Lth,) inf. n. حَشْرٌ, (K,) (tropical:) The year of dearth destroyed their camels and other quadrupeds; because it causes the owners to collect themselves from the various quarters to the cities or towns: (Lth:) or it caused them to go down to the cities or towns: (A:) or it distressed them; app., because of their collecting themselves together from the desert to the places of settled abodes: (Abu-t- Teiyib:) and حَشَرَتِ السَّنَةُ مَالَ فُلَانٍ The year of dearth destroyed the camels &c. of such a one. (S, K. *) -A2- حَشَرَهُ, (S, A,) inf. n. حَشْرٌ, (S, K,) (tropical:) He made it (a spear-head, S, A) thin, or slender: (S, A, K:) he made it (a spear-head, and a knife,) sharp, or pointed, and thin, or slender: (TA:) he made it small, and thin, or slender: (Th:) he pared it; namely, a stick: (TA:) he pared it, and made it sharp, or pointed. (S.)
