Metaphor is based on resemblance between source and target meanings. That resemblance may lie in observable form or in a conceptual relation such as sequence, excess, disclosure, or effect.
In majāz mursal, the figurative transfer rests on a relation other than resemblance, such as causation, containment, or part-for-whole. A conceptual common feature therefore does not automatically transform a metaphor into majāz mursal.
The imagery of stripping in “naslakhu,” and of transgressive excess in “ṭaghā al-māʾ,” remains grounded in a likeness appropriate to metaphor.
