سَأَطْلُبُ بُعْدَ الدَّارِ عَنْكُمْ لِتَقْرَبُوا
I shall seek distance from your home so that you may come near.
The poetic example places physical distance and nearness in a special figurative relationship. If the route from the apparent sense to the desired sense is insufficiently signaled, the hearer is left to reconstruct several unexpressed links.
Simply calling this “metaphorical” is not enough. The student must examine the chain primary meaning → implied meaning → intended meaning and locate the remote step.
