Assalamu alaikum Sheikh!
IN class you mentioned the meaning of 3afaa- meaning to erase, the way the waves erase footsteps on the beach...and ghafara- to mean to cover up...the way Allah will cover up sins that we repent for (after 6 hours).. I was looking at a verse today and i was wondering what's the linguistic meaning of SAFAHA?:
64:14 O YOU who have attained to faith! Behold, some of your spouses [11] and your children are enemies unto you: so beware of them! [12] But if you pardon [their faults] and forbear, and forgive-then, behold, God will be much-forgiving, a dispenser of grace.
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنَّ مِنْ أَزْوَاجِكُمْ وَأَوْلَادِكُمْ عَدُوًّا لَّكُمْ فَاحْذَرُوهُمْ وَإِن تَعْفُوا وَتَصْفَحُوا وَتَغْفِرُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ (64:14)
jazak Allah khair!
