Form 1شَغَفَهُ1 sense
muḍāriʿـَيَفْعَلُmaṣdarشَغْفٌ

Core sense — it struck the pericardium of his heart; he became attached to him, he loved himgenerated

1.1he became attached to him, or loved himشَغِفَهُ

. He, or it, struck his شَغَاف, like كَبَدَهُ, meaning "he, or it, struck his كَبِد" [or "liver"]; so says Yoo.

Or love rent the شَغَاف of his heart; or love reached his شَغَاف, or شَغَفَ قَلْبَهُ love reached the شَغَاف of his heart, that is, his pericardium.

I'Ab read, in the Qur'ān 12:30, قَدْ شَغَفَهَا حُبًّا, and explained the meaning as [He has affected her so that] the love of him has entered beneath the شَغَاف; or the meaning is that the love of him has struck her شَغَاف; or he has rent the شَغَاف of her heart, that is, its حِجَاب [apparently meaning her midriff], so as to reach her heart, with love.

Abu-l-Ash-hab read قَدْ شَغِفَهَا حُبًّا with kesr to the غ [meaning he has become attached to her, or has loved her], like the reading of Thábit El-Bunyánee, شَعِفَهَا with kesr to the unpointed ء.
