Notes & justification

﴿أَدْرَىٰكَ﴾: وخالف أبو جعفر أصله:

Three Shāṭibiyyah couplets and one from al-Durrah. The first gives the leaning of the rāʾ of the sūrah-openings for all but Ḥafṣ; the second names those who lean adrā — Ḥamzah, al-Kisāʾī and Khalaf (shafā), Shuʿbah with them (ṣuḥbah), and Abū ʿAmr (baṣr) — with Ibn Dhakwān bi-khulf (muththilā); the third gives Warsh his bayna-bayna in the rāʾ-alifs. Then the book notes that Abū Jaʿfar departs from his master's practice: the Durrah couplet opens the gate of fatḥ for him, so his row carries no cell.

(ش)al-Shāṭibiyyah
وَإِضْجَاعُ رَا كُلِّ الْفَوَاتِحِ ذِكْرُهُحِمًى غَيْرَ حَفْصٍ طَاوَيَا صُحْبَةٌ وِلَا

The leaning of the rāʾ of all the sūrah-openings is a guarded ground for all but Ḥafṣ.

(ش)al-Shāṭibiyyah
شَفَا صَادِقاً حَمَّ مُخْتَارُ صُحْبَةٍوَبَصْرٍ وَهُمْ أَدْرَى وَبِالْخُلْفِ مُثِّلَا

It healed truly — the choice of ṣuḥbah and of Baṣrah's reader — and they best know adrā; and with khulf it was exemplified (by Ibn Dhakwān).

(ش)al-Shāṭibiyyah
وَذُو الرَّا لِوَرْشٍ بَيْنَ بَيْنَ وَنَافِعٌلَدَى مَرْيَمٍ هَا يَا وَحَا جِيدُهُ حَلَا

What carries the rāʾ is bayna bayna for Warsh; and Nāfiʿ, in Maryam's hā yā (kāf hā yā ʿayn ṣād), with ḥā — its neck-ornament is sweet.

(د)al-Durrah al-Muḍiyyah
وَطُلْ كَافِرِينَ الْكُلَّ وَالنَّمْلَ حُطْ وَيَاءُ يَسِنَ يُمْنٌ وَافْتَحِ الْبَابَ إِذْ عَلَا

…and open the (imālah) chapter — Abū Jaʿfar reads the whole class with fatḥ, departing from Nāfiʿ.
