[ تَفْسِيرُ ابْنِ هِشَامٍ لِبَعْضِ الْغَرِيبِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: قَضَى نَحْبَهُ مَاتَ، وَالنَّحْبُ: النَّفْسُ، فِيمَا أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ وَجَمْعُهُ: نُحُوبٌ. قَالَ ذُو الرُّمَّةِ: عَشِيَّةَ فَرَّ الْحَارِثِيُّونَ بَعْدَمَا وَهَذَا الْبَيْتُ فِي قَصِيدَةٍ لَهُ. وَهَوْبَرُ: مِنْ بَنِي الْحَارِثِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، أَرَادَ: يَزِيدَ بْنَ هَوْبَرٍ. وَالنَّحْبُ ( أَيْضًا ): النَّذْرُ. قَالَ جَرِيرُ بْنُ الْخَطْفِيِّ: بِطِخْفَةَ جَالَدْنَا الْمُلُوكَ وَخَيْلُنَا عَشِيَّةَ بِسْطَامٍ جَرَيْنَ عَلَى نَحْبِ يَقُولُ: عَلَى نَذْرٍ كَانَتْ نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَقْتُلَهُ فَقَتَلَتْهُ، وَهَذَا الْبَيْتُ فِي قَصِيدَةٍ لَهُ وَبِسْطَامٌ: بِسْطَامُ بْنُ قَيْسِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ ذِي الْجَدَّيْنِ. حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ: أَنَّهُ كَانَ فَارِسَ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ نِزَارٍ. وَطِخْفَةُ: مَوْضِعٌ بِطَرِيقِ الْبَصْرَةِ وَالنَّحْبُ ( أَيْضًا ): الْخِطَارُ، وَهُوَ: الرِّهَانُ. قَالَ الْفَرَزْدَقُ: وَإِذْ نَحَبَتْ كَلْبٌ عَلَى النَّاسِ أَيُّنَا عَلَى النَّحْبِ أَعْطَى لِلْجَزِيلِ وَأَفْضَلُ وَالنَّحْبُ ( أَيْضًا ): الْبُكَاءُ. وَمِنْهُ قَوْلُهُمْ يُنْتَحَبُ. وَالنَّحْبُ ( أَيْضًا ): الْحَاجَةُ وَالْهِمَّةُ، تَقُولُ: مَا لِي عِنْدَهُمْ نَحْبٌ. قَالَ مَالِكُ بْنُ نُوَيْرَةَ الْيَرْبُوعِي: وَمَا لِي نَحْبٌ عِنْدَهُمْ غَيْرَ أَنَّنِي تَلَمَّسْتُ مَا تَبْغِي مِنْ الشُّدُنِ الشُّجْزِ وَقَالَ نَهَارُ بْنُ تَوْسِعَةَ، أَحَدُ بَنِي تَيْمِ اللَّاتِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ عُكَابَةَ بْنِ صَعْبِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ بَكْرِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: هَؤُلَاءِ مَوَالِي بَنِي حَنِيفَةَ: وَنَجَّى يُوسُفَ الثَّقَفِيَّ رَكْضٌ دِرَاكٌ بَعْدَ مَا وَقَعَ اللِّوَاءُ وَلَوْ أَدْرَكْنَهُ لَقَضَيْنَ نَحْبًا بِهِ وَلِكُلِّ مُخْطَأَةٍ وِقَاءُ وَالنَّحْبُ ( أَيْضًا ): السَّيْرُ الْخَفِيفُ الْمُرُّ
Translation
✧ Ibn Hishām said: Qaḍā naḥbahu means he died, and al-naḥb is the self, as Abū ʿUbaydah informed me, and its plural is nuḥūb. Dhū al-Rummah said: ʿAshiyyata farra al-Ḥārithiyyūna baʿdamā... And this verse is in a poem of his. And Hawbar: of the Banū al-Ḥārith b. Kaʿb; he meant Yazīd b. Hawbar. And al-naḥb (also) means the vow. Jarīr b. al-Khaṭafī said: Bi-Ṭikhfata jāladnā al-mulūka wa-khaylunā / ʿashiyyata Bisṭāmin jarayna ʿalā naḥbi. He says: upon a vow it had made to kill him, and it killed him. And this verse is in a poem of his. And Bisṭām: Bisṭām b. Qays b. Masʿūd al-Shaybānī, and he is the son of Dhū al-Jaddayn. Abū ʿUbaydah related to me that he was the horseman of Rabīʿah b. Nizār. And Ṭikhfah: a place on the road to al-Baṣrah. And al-naḥb (also) means the wagering, which is the betting. Al-Farazdaq said: Wa-idh naḥabat Kalbun ʿalā al-nāsi ayyunā / ʿalā al-naḥbi aʿṭā lil-jazīli wa-afḍalū. And al-naḥb (also) means weeping. From it is their saying yuntaḥabu, 'it is wept over.' And al-naḥb (also) means the need and the aspiration; you say: Mā lī ʿindahum naḥb, 'I have no need with them.' Mālik b. Nuwayrah al-Yarbūʿī said: Wa-mā lī naḥbun ʿindahum ghayra annanī / talammastu mā tabghī min al-shuduni al-shujzī. And Nahār b. Tawsiʿah, one of the Banū Taym al-Lāt b. Thaʿlabah b. ʿUkābah b. Ṣaʿb b. ʿAlī b. Bakr b. Wāʾil, said — Ibn Hishām said: These are the clients of the Banū Ḥanīfah: Wa-najjā Yūsufa al-Thaqafiyya rakḍun dirākun / baʿda mā waqaʿa al-liwāʾū / wa-law adraknāhu la-qaḍaynā naḥban bihi / wa-li-kulli mukhṭiʾatin wiqāʾū. And al-naḥb (also) means the light, bitter journey.
