Parallel reading

The 'uḍw, with damma and kasra: the singular of 'a'ḍā', like qifl and 'aqfāl, and qadaḥ and 'aqdāḥ.

وهو كل لحم وافر بعظمه.

And it is every abundant flesh with its bone.

وفي المحكم: كل عظم وافر اللحم.

And in Al-Muḥkam: every bone with abundant flesh.

والتعضية التجزئة: يقال عضيت الشاة إذا جزيتها أجزاء.

And ta'ḍiyah is division: it is said, 'I divided the sheep' if you cut it into parts.

وأيضا: التفريق والتوزيع؛ ومنه الحديث: لا تعضية في ميراث إلا فيما حمل القسم.

And also: separation and distribution; and from it is the Hadith: 'There is no division in inheritance except in what the division can bear.'

يعني أن ما لا يحتمل القسم كالحبة من الجوهر ونحوها لا يفرق، وإن طلب بعض الورثة القسم لأن فيه ضررا عليهم، أو على بعضهم، ولكنه يباع ثم يقسم ثمنه بينهم بالفريضة؛

Meaning that what cannot bear division, like a single gem or the like, is not divided, even if some heirs request division because it would cause harm to them, or to some of them, but it is sold and its price is then divided among them according to the prescribed shares;

كالعضو، يقال: عضاه يعضو عضوا: إذا فرقه.

Like 'uḍw, it is said: 'He divided it' (ʿaḍāhu yaʿḍū ʿaḍwan): if he separated it.

والعضه، كعدة: الفرقة من الناس.

And 'iḍah, like 'iddah: a group of people.

وأيضا: القطعة من الشيء.

And also: a piece of something.

وأيضا: الكذب؛ ج عضون، بكسر فضم؛ ومنه قوله تعالى: الذين جعلوا القرآن عضين.

And also: falsehood; plural 'uḍūn, with kasra then damma; and from it is His saying, the Almighty: 'Those who made the Quran into divisions.'

قال الجوهري واحدها عضة، ونقصانها الواو والهاء أي هما لغتان؛

Al-Jawhari said its singular is 'iḍah, and its deficiency is the waw and ha', meaning they are two languages;

فمن قال: أصلها الواو استدل بأن جمعه! عضوات، ومن قال الهاء استدل بقولهم عضيهة.

So whoever says its origin is the waw, he uses as evidence that its plural is 'iḍawāt, and whoever says the ha', he uses their saying 'iḍayhah as evidence.

وقال الكسائي: في الدار فرق من الناس وعزون وعضون وأصناف بمعنى واحد.

And Al-Kisa'i said: In the house are groups of people, 'uzūn, 'uḍūn, and 'aṣnāf, meaning one thing.

وقال الراغب: جعلوا القرآن عضين، أي مفرقا، فقالوا كهانة، وقالوا أساطير الأولين، إلى غير ذلك مما وصفوه به،

And Al-Raghib said: 'They made the Quran into divisions ('uḍīn), meaning separated, so they said it was divination, and they said it was the legends of the ancients, and other than that which they described it with,

وقيل: معنى عضين ما قال تعالى: أفتؤمنون ببعض الكتاب وتكفرون ببعض خلاف من قال فيه: وتؤمنون بالكتاب كله.

And it was said: the meaning of 'uḍīn is what the Almighty said: 'Do you then believe in some of the Scripture and disbelieve in others?' contrary to whoever said about it: 'And you believe in the entire Scripture.'

والعضون: السحر جمع عضه بالهاء، و قد ذكر في الهاء.
