Talk:Ishq

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

can somebody explians what ashq means? it has any connection with God?

We need a sufi here, but I think the sense is that in falling in love you forget yourself, and in forgetting yourself you discover god. Haiduc 22:48, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Derivation of the word Ishq

"Ïshq" can't possibly be derived from a word "äshiqa" - Arabic just doesn't work that way. (Arabic words are derived from roots made up of 3 consonants, with very vague and generalised meanings). I see that your source is actually talking about the derivation of the word as used in Urdu and Persian - but he's still wrong, as the word is indeed derived from Arabic, and as I said, Arabic words derive from consonantal roots, not from whole words. I suggest you consult Weber's Arabic-English dictionary for the true derivation and range of meanings (the range of meanings is important - one word or Arabic will usually translate into twenty or so of English - Weber lists the most common first).
