مثلا may be in
the accus. case as an objective complement,
اضحاب القرية being a substitute for
مثلا; or
اصحاب القرية may be regarded as a second
objective complement [i. e. second in the order of
the words, but first in the order of the sense]:
the phrase is differently expl. on account of the
different meanings of the verb
ضَرَبَ; which signifies
he described, or
rehearsed; and
he declared,
propounded, or
explained; and
he made, caused
to be, or
constituted; &c.; accord. to some, it is
taken from the phrase
ضَرَبَ الدِرْهَمَ [q. v.];
because of the impression which a parable or the
like makes upon the mind: accord. to some, from
ضَرِيبٌ signifying “ a like; ” because the first
thing is made like the second: accord. to some,
from
ضَرَبَ الطِّينَ عَلَى الجِدَارِ [q. v.; because the
mud, applied as a plaster, conforms to the shape
of the wall]: and accord. to some, from
ضَرَبَ
الخَاتَمَ [q. v.]; because of the correspondence
between a parable or the like and the object to
which it is applied, and the correspondence between the signet and its impression. (TA, from
the M and L &c.)
