  • For the phrase in the final Arabic clause, Lisan al-Arab (root hay-shin) expressly cites Ibn Masud wording and recognizes the ya variant. It explains the term through agitation, melee, and disorder; tumult and disorder preserves that range, though the precise emphasis remains lexically uncertain. https://www.islamweb.net/ar/library/content/122/8853/%D9%87%D9%8A%D8%B4
