Hadith 5572

(1) His statement: “did not have enough to dye”: with a kasra on the dhad. The commentator said: The subject of “did not have enough” is a pronoun referring to the Prophet’s hair, and “ma” is a verbal noun, with the Prophet as the subject of “to dye,” meaning he did not reach the point of dyeing. His statement: “If I wished, etc.”: The response to “if” is omitted, meaning I would count them. His statement: “his lower lip hair”: with an open ‘ayn, silent nun, then fa, then qaf, meaning the hair growing under the lower lip and above the chin. His statement: “his temples”: with a damma on the first letter, meaning the hair hanging between the eye and the ear. (As stated in Al-Mirqat)

(۱) قوله: لم يبلغ ما يخضب بكسر الضاد قال شارح: فاعل لم يبلغ ضمير عائد إلى شعر النبي ، وما» مصدرية، وفاعل يخضب النبي ، أي لم يبلغ الخضاب. وقوله: «لو شئت إلخ» وجواب «لو» محذوف، أي لأعدها. وقوله: «عنفقته» بفتح العين وسكون النون ففاء، ثم قاف، أي شعره النابت تحت شفته السفلى وفوق الذقن. وقوله: «الصدغين بضم أوله، أي الشعر المتدلي على ما بين العين والأذن. كذا في «المرقاة».
