(Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ.) لَا تَحْزَنْ and لَا تَحْزَنُوا, in the Ḳur [ix. 40, &c., and iii. 133], do not denote a prohibition of getting حُزْن; for حُزْن does not come by the will of man: the real meaning is Do not thou, and ye, that which engenders حُزْن; do not thou, and ye, acquire حُزْن. (Er-Rághib. [But this requires consideration; or, rather, is not in every case admissible.])

(TA.)
