The difference between Ú ö » ô Ä º and Ú ö » ô Ã ø è º according to some is that, whereas Ú ö » ô Ä º is used when the abstract quality is meant and Ú ö » ô Ã ø è º when the actual action is meant, i. e. Ú ö » ô Ã ø è º describes a woman in the actual act of giving suck; or Ú ö » ô Ä º signifies a woman who is about to suckle but has not yet suckled or who has a child with her whom she suckles and Ú ö » ô Ã ø è º means a woman who is actually suckling, her teat being in the mouth of her child. It is in this sense perhaps that the word Ú ö » ô Ã ø è º has been used in (22:3). 329 Ä Ä
