ورث

وَارِثٌ ذ An heir: pl. وُرَّاث and وَرَثَةٌ. (Msb.) ― -b2- It is said in a prayer (of Mohammad, TA) أَللّٰهُمَّ أَمْتِعْنِى بِسَمْعِى وَبَصَرِى وَا@جْعَلْهُ الوَارِثَ منِّى [ O God, cause me to enjoy my hearing and my sight, and make it (i. e. the enjoyment that I pray for, TA) survive me: or,] make it to continue with me until I die. (K.) Or, accord. to another relation, which substitutes وَا@جْعَلْهُمَا for واجعله, make them both to continue with me, sound, until I die. Or, as some say, what is meant is the continuance and strength of those two faculties in old age, so that they may survive all the other powers: so says ISh. Some say, that by سَمْع is meant the remembering of what is heard, and the acting according thereto; and by بَصَر, the being admonished by what is seen, and the light of the heart, whereby one escapes from perplexity and darkness to the right course. (TA.) ― -b3- الوَارِثُ (as an epithet applied to God, TA.) He who remains after the creatures have perished. (K.) He remains after everything beside Him has perished; and thus, what was the property of mankind, his servants, returns to Him. (TA.)
