muḍāriʿـُيَفْعُلُ·ـِيَفْعِلُmaṣdarحَشْرٌ

Core sense — he gathered people together and drove them; he made a spear-head thingenerated

1.1figurative · مجازcongregating people, or collecting them together and driving them—حَشْرٌ

Muḍāriʿ حَشُرَ and حَشِرَ; the first of these is the form found in the seven readings of the Qur'ān.

The verb also means: he made them go forth, collected together, from one place to another; he compelled them to emigrate; and simply, he drove them towards a place or quarter.

[In the CK الخَلَآءُ is put by mistake for الجَلَاءُ, the explanation of the maṣdar.]

the day of congregation; that is, the day of resurrection—يَوْمُ الحَشْرِ

See also مَحْشِرٌ.

[the Chapter of the Compulsion to Emigrate; chapter 59 of the Qur'ān]—سُورَةُ الحَشْرِ
And when the wild animals shall be collected together—وَ إِذَا الوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ

Most of the expositors of the Qur'ān say that the wild animals and other beasts, and even the flies, will be collected together for retaliation, and they cite a tradition on this subject.

That is, from every quarter, after the resurrection; or raised to life so that they may retaliate on one another, after which they shall return to dust. Or the meaning is that they shall die in the present world, according to some; 'Ikrimeh says this on the authority of I'Ab, as related by Sa'eed Ibn-Masrook. According to some, the two meanings are nearly the same, since each denotes collection.

the going forth with a people fleeing, hurrying, or scattering themselves in war—حَشْرٌ

So when the word is used absolutely.

1.1.1figurative · مجازthe year of dearth destroyed their camels and other quadrupeds—حَشَرَتْهُمُ السَّنَةُ

So called because it makes the owners collect themselves from the various quarters to the cities or towns; or it made them go down to the cities or towns; or it distressed them, apparently because they collected themselves from the desert to the places of settled abodes — so Abu-t-Teiyib.

Muḍāriʿ حَشُرَ and حَشِرَ.

the year of dearth destroyed the camels and other beasts of such a one—حَشَرَتِ السَّنَةُ مَالَ فُلَانٍ
1.2figurative · مجازhe made it thin, or slender; said of a spear-head—حَشَرَهُ

Said of a spear-head, or of a knife: he made it sharp, or pointed, and thin; he made it small and thin.

Said of a stick: he pared it, and made it sharp, or pointed.

Nounحَشْرٌ1 sense

Core sense — anything thin, slender, or elegant; a thin ear; a slender spear-headgenerated

1figurative · مجازa thin, or an elegant, ear, as though it were pared and made sharp—أُذُنُ حَشْرٌ

Anything thin, slender, or elegant.

Or small, elegant, and round; or thin at the end; or sharp-pointed.

The adjective is the same for the dual and the plural. J says it admits neither a dual nor a plural form, because it is originally a maṣdar, and the expression above is like مَآءٌ غَوْرٌ and مَآءٌ سَكْبٌ; but اذن حَشْرَةٌ is sometimes said, and the plural حُشُورٌ occurs in a verse of Umeiyeh Ibn-Abee-'Áïdh.

One also says مَحْشُورَةٌ اذن.

حَشْرٌ is applied in the same sense to other things as well.

a thin, or an elegant, feather of an arrow, as though it were pared—قُذَّةٌ حَشْرٌ
a thin, or slender, spear-head—سِنَانٌ حَشْرٌ

Or sharp-pointed.

Or sharp, or sharp-pointed; and سِكِّينٌ حَشْرٌ likewise. Also حَرْبَةٌ حَشْرَةٌ, سَهْمٌ حَشْرٌ and سِهَامٌ حُشْرٌ, like جَوْنٌ, جُونٌ, وَرْدٌ and وُرْدٌ.

an arrow having straight, or even, feathers—سَهْمٌ حَشْرٌ

So also سهم مَحْشُورٌ and حَشِرٌ, of the same measure as كَتِفٌ, an arrow having good feathers attached to it.

a camel having a thin, or an elegant, ear—بَعِيرٌ حَشْرُ الأُذُنِ
