So for instance a person has a pair of hands, a pair of eyes, a pair of ears, right? A pair of eyes pair of hands. This is referred to the feminine. قال اليد بالتانيث اللفظ مذكر لكن المعنى مؤنث كذلك الرجل كذلك العين اللفظ مذكر لكن المعنى مؤنث كذلك ما فيه التقابل مثل السماء والارض متقابلتان فيكون فيهما التانيث السماء بالتانيث الارض بالتانيث مع ان اللفظ مذكر.
