And in the hadith of Amr ibn Ma'd Yakrib: 'They are the greatest in number among us and the most intense in their harshness.' Meaning, sharāsah.

والشرس، محركة: ما صغر من شجر الشوك، حكاه أبو حنفة، رحمه الله كالشرس، بالكسر، وهو مثل الشبرم والحاج، وقيل: الشرس: عضاه الجبل، وله شوك أصفر، وقيل: هو ما رق شوكه، ونباته الهجول والصحارى، لا ينبت في قيعان الأودية،

And al-sharas (with harakah): what is small of thorny trees, narrated by Abu Hanifa, may God have mercy on him, like al-sharas (with kasr), and it is like al-shabram and al-hajj. And it was said: Al-sharas: the thorny trees of the mountain, and it has yellow thorns. And it was said: it is what has thin thorns, and its plants are in the open lands and deserts, not growing in the bottoms of valleys.

وقال ابن الأعرابي: وهو الشكاعى والقتاد والسحا وكل ذي شوك مما يصغر، وأنشد: واضعة تأكل كل شرس وشرس، كفرح: دام على رعيه، كذا في التكملة، وهو نص ابن الأعرابي، ونص أبي حنيفة: شرست الماشية تشرس شراسة: اشتد أكلها، ولم يخص بالشرس، ومثله قول أبي زيد، كما سيأتي.

And Ibn al-A'rabi said: It is al-shukaa', al-qataad, al-sihaa, and every thorny plant that is small. And he recited: 'A she-camel eating every thorny plant and grazing.' Sharis, like fariha: it persisted in its grazing. This is according to al-Takmilah, and it is the text of Ibn al-A'rabi. And the text of Abu Hanifa: The livestock became sharis, tushrisu sharāsatan: their eating intensified, and he did not specify it to al-sharas. And similar is the saying of Abu Zayd, as will come later.

وعن ابن الأعرابي: شرس الرجل، كفرح، إذا تحبب إلى الناس.

And from Ibn al-A'rabi: A man became sharis, like fariha, if he endeared himself to people.

والأشرس هو: الجرئ في القتال، نقله الصاغاني، والذي في التهذيب أن الجريء في القتال هو الأشوس، فصحفه الصاغاني. وتبعه المصنف، فتأمل.

And al-ahras is: the brave in battle, narrated by al-Saghani. And what is in al-Tahdhib is that the brave in battle is al-ashwas, so al-Saghani misspelled it. And the author followed him, so ponder.

ومن الأشرس: الأسد، لجراءته أو لسوء خلقه،) كالشريس، كأمير.

And among al-ahras: the lion, due to its bravery or its bad temper, like al-sharīs, like amīr.

And an 'ard sharssaa' and sharaas like 'uthman, shinah, rubaa', hazab, zaman, makan, and sarab. The inflection of the first is by estimation in non-accusative cases, and the second is inflected by vowels absolutely: intense, rough, coarse.

والشراس، بالكسر: أفضل دباق الأساكفة، والأطباء يقولون: إشراس، بزيادة الألف المكسورة، قال صاحب المنهاج: هو الخبثى، ويشبه أصل اللوف في أفعاله، وإذا أحرق كان حارا في الثانية يابسا في الثالثة، وهو نافع من داء الثعلب طلاء عليه، وإذا دق وشرب أدر البول والحيض. ويضمد به الفتق.

And al-sharaas (with kasr): the best tanning agent for cobblers. And physicians say: 'ishraas, with the addition of the kasrah alif. The author of al-Minhaj said: It is al-khubtha, and it resembles the root of the turnip in its effects. If burned, it is hot in the second degree and dry in the third. It is beneficial for alopecia when applied as a poultice. If ground and drunk, it induces urine and menstruation. And it is used to bind hernias.

And al-sharas: chafing of the skin and the camel's hump, from Ibn 'Abbad. And al-Layth said: Al-sharas: like a boil on something, as a donkey chafes the backs of she-donkeys with its beard. And others said: A donkey sharis its she-donkey, yushrisuha sharasan: it rubs its jaws and the like on its back.

والشرس أيضا: أن تمض صاحبك بالكلام الغليظ، عن ابن عباد، وليس في التكملة والعباب لفظة الغليظ ولا يحتاج إليها فإن الإمضاض لا يكون إلا به، فلو اقتصر على الكلام كان أوجز.

And al-sharas also: to vex your companion with harsh words, from Ibn 'Abbad. And al-Takmilah and al-'Ubab do not contain the word 'harsh', nor is it needed, for vexation can only occur with it. If it were limited to 'words', it would be more concise.

وقال أبو عمر و: الشرس، بالضم: الجرب في مشافر الإبل، ومنه يقال: إبل مشروسة، كذا في العباب.

And Abu 'Amr said: Al-sharas (with dammah): scab on the lips of camels. From this it is said: 'mushrusah camels', thus in al-'Ubab.

وقال أبو زيد: الشراسة: شدة أكل الماشية، وإنه لشرس الأكل، أي شديدهن هذه مأخوذة من عبارة أبي حنيفة، ونصها: وإنه لشريس الأكل. وقد شرس كنصر. وضبطه الأموي كضرب.

And Abu Zayd said: Al-sharāsah: intensity of livestock eating. And indeed, he is sharis al-akl, meaning intense in eating. This is taken from the expression of Abu Hanifa, and its text is: 'And indeed, he is sharīs al-akl.' And he became sharis, like nasara. And al-Umavi vocalized it like daraba.

والمشارسة والشراس، بالكسر: الشدة في المعاملة، وقد شارسه، إذا عاسره وشاكسه.

And among their proverbs: 'He stumbled upon the harshest of times', meaning severe hardship.

ويقال: هذا جمل لم يشرس، أي لم يرض ولم يذلل، وهو مجاز.

And it is said: 'This is a camel that has not been sharis', meaning it has not become agreeable or submissive, and this is metaphorical.
