1.4figurative · مجاز — inferredthe first part [i.e. the subject] of a proposition—المُسْنَدُ
the second part [i.e. the attribute, or predicate] of it—المُسْنَدُ إِلَيْهِ

According to Sb.

Or, according to Kh, a proposition consists of a سَنَد and a مُسْنَد إِلَيْه; and in the phrase عَبْدُ ٱللّٰهِ رَجُلٌ صَالِحٌ, عبد اللّٰه is a سند and رجل صالح is a مسند اليه.

[But according to other authors, and general modern usage, and in agreement with the proper meanings of the terms, المُسْنَدُ (meaning the attributed) signifies the attribute, or predicate, and المُسْنَدُ إِلَيْهِ (meaning that to which a thing or an accident is attributed) signifies the subject.]

Also the Ḥimyeree, or Ḥimyeritic, character of writing; the character of Ḥimyer, differing from the modern Arabic character.

They used to write it commonly in the days of their rule; and AḤát says that it was still in use among them in El-Yemen in his own day [that is, in the latter half of the second century of the Flight and the former half of the third].

Abu-l-ʿAbbās says that المُسْنَدُ was the language of the sons of Seth [that is, the language written in the character so called]; and IJ says the like in the “Sirr eṣ-Ṣināʿah.”

1.6[I will not do it to the end of time]—لَا أَفْعَلُهُ آخِرَ المُسْنَدِ

Also the same as الدَّهْرُ [that is, time, from the beginning of the world to its end; or time absolutely; or a long time; or time without end].

وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَهُمْ تُعْجِبُكَ أَجْسَامُهُمْ ۖ وَإِن يَقُولُوا۟ تَسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِهِمْ ۖ كَأَنَّهُمْ خُشُبٌ مُّسَنَّدَةٌ ۖ يَحْسَبُونَ كُلَّ صَيْحَةٍ عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ هُمُ ٱلْعَدُوُّ فَٱحْذَرْهُمْ ۚ قَـٰتَلَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ۖ أَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ

When thou lookest at them, their exteriors please thee; and when they speak, thou listenest to their words. They are as (worthless as hollow) pieces of timber propped up, (unable to stand on their own). They think that every cry is against them. They are the enemies; so beware of them. The curse of Allah be on them! How are they deluded (away from the Truth)!
