برء

بَرِىْءٌ برأ برىء بريء برئ Free, (Msb,) مِنْهُ from it; namely a fault, defect, imperfection, blemish, or vice; (Mgh, Msb;) and, also followed by مِنْهُ, clear, or quit, of it; irresponsible for it; or in a state of immunity with respect to it; i. e. exempt from the demand thereof; namely a debt, (Msb,) or a claim, or due, or right; (Mgh;) as also ↓ بَارِىٌ and ↓ بَرَاآءٌ. (Msb.) You say, أَنَا بَرِىْءٌ مِنْهُ [ I am free from it, &c.]; (T, * S, M, K; *) and ↓ بَرَاآءٌ, used alike as sing. and dual and pl. (Fr, T, S, M, K) and masc. and fem., (Fr, T, M, K,) because it is originally an inf. n.; (Fr, T, S;) and ↓ بُرَاآءٌ: (S, M:) the pl. of بَرِىْءٌ is بَرِيؤُونَ (T, S, K) and بُرَأءُ (T, S, M, K) and بُرَاآءٌ, (T, M, K,) of the measure فُعَالٌ, (T,) like رُخَالٌ, (M, K,) of an extr. measure, disapproved by Suh, who says, in the R, that it is a contraction of بُرَأءُ, and has tenween because it resembles [words originally of the measure] فُعَالٌ, and that the rel. n. formed from it is ↓ بُرَاوِىٌّ, (TA,) but it is mentioned by AAF as a pl. of بَرِىْءٌ, and as being like رُخَالٌ, and Fr mentions بُرَاآءُ as a pl. of the same, imperfectly decl., with one of the two hemzehs suppressed, (M,) and بِرَاآءٌ (S, M, K) and أَبْرَاآءٌ (S, K) and أَبْرِئَاآءُ, (T, S, K,) the last two anomalous: (TA:) the fem. of بَرِيْءٌ is بَرِيْئَةٌ; pl. بَرِيْاآتٌ (T, S, M, K) and بَرِيَّاتٌ (Lh, M, K) and بَرَايَا. (T, S, M, K.) You say, أَنَا بَرِىْءٌ مِنْهُ and خَلِىٌّ مِنْهُ [ I am free from it; or, more commonly, I am clear, or quit, of it, or him ]; and مِنْهُ ↓ أنَا بَرَاآءٌ and خَلَاآءٌ مِنْهُ; (S;) and مِنْهُ ↓ أَنَا البَرَاآءُ: (M:) and ↓ نَحْنُ مِنْكَ البَرَاآءُ and الخَلَاآءُ [ We are clear, or quit, of you ]; (Fr, T;) i. e., ذَوُو البَرَاآءِ: so says Aboo-Is-hák; and As says the like of what Fr says. (T.) It is said in the Kur [xliii. 25], مِمَّا تَعْبُدُونَ ↓ اـِنَّنِى بَرَاآءٌ [ Verily I am clear of that which ye worship ]; (T, M;) or بَرِىْءٌ, or ↓ بُرَاآءٌ; accord. to different readers. (Bd.) بَرِىْءٌ occurs in several places in the Kur. (M.) Accord. to IAar, it signifies Clear of evil qualities or dispositions; shunning what is vain and false; remote from actions that occasion suspicion; pure in heart from associating any with God: and it signifies sound in body and intellect. (T.) See also بَارِئٌ, in two places.
