Forme attestate : ٱلْمِحَالِ 1
Core meaning
The force that does not yield: the power to seize and to carry through what is willed, with nothing able to resist it.
Uses
شَدِيدُ ٱلْمِحَالِ → "of a formidable vigor" : an attribute of God, closing the phrase on those who argue about Him.
- «وَهُوَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْمِحَالِ» — "and He is of a formidable vigor" (13:13)
Evidence from the text
A single occurrence. In 13:13, the formula follows the sending of the thunderbolt: "and He sends the thunderbolt, and strikes with it whom He wills, while they argue about God". The blow that hits whom He wills shows the attribute before it is named; شَدِيد marks its intensity.
The phrase sets two movements against each other: the argument of those who contest, and a force that this argument does not bend. The context suffices to fix the meaning.
Distinctions
- قوى — force in general; ٱلْمِحَال is the force that seizes and does not let go
