Root entry · 1 derived lemma

8 انتصح ذ He accepted نَصِيحَة, (S, K, *) or نُصْح, (TA,) [i. e., sincere, honest, or faithful, advice or counsel, &c. ]. As an ex. of this signification the following is cited يَقُولُ ا@نْتَصِحْنِى اـِنَّنِى لَكَ نَاصِحٌ [ He says, Accept my sincere advice, for I am to thee a sincere adviser ]: (TA:) and اـِنْتَصِحٌ كِتَابَ ا@للّٰهِ Accept the sincere or faithful advice or counsel of the Book of God. (A.) But IB says, that the verb in this sense is intrans.; and that, when trans., it signifies He took a person as a نَصِيح [a sincere or faithful adviser or counsellor, &c. ]; whence the saying لَا أُرِيدُ مِنْكَ نُصْحًا وَلَا ا@نْتِصَاحا, i. e. لَا أُرِيدُ مِنْكَ أَنْ تَنْصَحَنِى وَلَا أَنْ تَتَّخذَنِى نَصِيحًا [ I do not desire of thee sincere or faithful advice, nor thy taking me as a sincere or faithful adviser ]. (L.) ― -b2- See 10
