[[Hasan Mustafawi]] (d. 2005), the author of the book ''[[al-Tahqiq fi kalimat al-Qur'an al-karim]]'', believes that “hamim” has several meanings: intense heat, closeness and intimacy, a kind of voice or intention, all of which refer to intense heat. For instance, some springs are called “hamim” because they have intensely hot water, or a close intimate friend is called “hamim” because of his warmness and kindness. Moreover, when “hamim” is used to refer to charcoal, it is because wood turns into charcoal as a result of intense heat and fire.<ref>Muṣṭafawī, ''al-Taḥqīq'', vol. 2, p. 287.</ref> Accordingly, “hamim” means hot, either literally such as boiling water or metaphorically (as in friendship and intimacy).<ref>Muṣṭafawī, ''al-Taḥqīq'', vol. 2, p. 288.</ref> | [[Hasan Mustafawi]] (d. 2005), the author of the book ''[[al-Tahqiq fi kalimat al-Qur'an al-karim]]'', believes that “hamim” has several meanings: intense heat, closeness and intimacy, a kind of voice or intention, all of which refer to intense heat.
