is a subst. from تَبْلِيغٌ and إِبْلَاغٌ, meaning The bringing, conveyance, delivery, or communication, of a message [&c.]. [It often occurs in the Kur as meaning The communication, or announcement, of what is revealed.]
2 In a trad., in which it is said, كُلُّ رَافِعَةٍ رَفَعَتْ إِلَيْنَا مِنَ البَلَاغِ, [in the CK رُفِعَتْ علينا,] it means What is communicated, or announced, (مَا بَلَغَ,) of the Kur-án and of the [statutes, or ordinances, &c., termed] سُنَن: or the meaning is, مِنْ ذَوِى البَلَاغِ, i. e., التَّبْلِيغِ, [of those who have the office of communicating, or announcing,] the simple subst. being put in the place of the Verbal.Noun: but some relate it differently, saying مِنَ [of the communicators, or announcers,] like حُدَّاث in the sense of مُحَدِّثُون: and some say, مِنَ , meaning مِنَ المُبَالِغِينَ فِى التَّبْلِيغِ, i. e. of those who do their utmost in communicating, or announcing. [See this trad. cited and explained more fully in the first paragraph of art. رفع.]
3 هٰذَا بَلَاغٌ لِلنَّاسِ, in the Kur [xiv. last verse], means This Kur-án contains a sufficient exposition, or demonstration, for men.
4 See also بُلْغَةٌ, in three places.
